The Cleveland Browns on Tuesday doubled down on their arguments that a new, covered stadium in Brook Park is the best place for the team after the 2028 season. The team, in a public statement, said that a new stadium in the suburb would “relieve” Cleveland of any expenses to update Huntington Bank Field and that it would allow for far more events to be held than its current,

Ohio House Republicans have proposed offering $600 million in state-backed bonds to cover the stadium costs. Critics of using bonds to fund the stadium point out the bonds will cost taxpayers nearly $1 billion after interest. They’re also worried more professional sports teams will request bonds to build or renovate future stadiums.

The Browns are asking a federal judge to let them amend their lawsuit challenging a state law that makes it harder for pro sports teams to move.
