The running back who had a big game in last year's 13-6 win over Pittsburgh could sign soon with the United Football League.
Running back Chris Jennings, who played a key role in last year's win over the Steelers, could be headed to the UFL.CLEVELAND -- If the Browns want to bring back running back Chris Jennings for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, they'd better hurry.
Josh Arnold, Jennings' agent, said Tuesday, "If something doesn't happen soon, we may go the UFL (United Football League) route. There's a few teams involved there."
Jennings has been "on the street" since cut by the Browns in early September. Arnold said he has kept in touch with the Browns, but there is nothing imminent this week.
Jennings burst on the scene with a 73-yard rushing game and a 10-yard touchdown run in the Browns' 13-6 win over the Steelers in Cleveland in December. It was the club's first rush TD by a back last year.
The Browns may begin the practice week for the Steelers' game with leading rusher Peyton Hillis limited with a quadriceps muscle injury. Hillis pulled the quad at practice last week and then aggravated it at least two times in the Atlanta game on Sunday.
