Braylon Edwards Scholarships

Post by SB-50 »

Did anyone else see the feature on Braylon Edwards during ESPN's Monday Night Countdown? Per the story, he provided 10k toward college tuition to 100 Cleveland area kids when he was with the Browns. Those kids had to meet certain criteria. 3 recipients from Bowling Green introduced themselves as BG students, in BG gear during the feature.

Edwards' "kids" are currently attending 22 colleges throughout the U.S.

Very Nice!

Forgot that was airing tonight! BG had posted on social media that ESPN was on campus for that story, but forgot to watch. I'm sure it will be on ESPN.com at some point.

I thought this was scholarships that went to college receivers that can't catch the ball?

Never been a Braylon fan from his UM days to Cleveland and beyond but that is pretty cool. 100 students is no drop in the bucket either.
