Cleveland Browns' RB Jerome Harrison will attend mandatory minicamp, kicker Phil Dawson iffy

Browns running back Jerome Harrison will attend mandatory minicamp, a source said, but kicker Phil Dawson might continue to stay away.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Browns running back Jerome Harrison will attend Browns mandatory minicamp Thursday through Saturday despite skipping voluntary organized team activities this week, a source close to Harrison told The Plain Dealer today.

Harrison, a restricted free agent, has yet to sign his one-year tender, but signed an injury waiver that enabled him to participate in OTAs the previous two weeks.

Harrison missed this week because he went back home to Kalamazoo, Mich. for his football camp and another charity event. Both he and fullback Lawrence Vickers, also a restricted free agent, are expected to participate in the minicamp. Of the other three, D'Qwell Jackson, Matt Roth and Abe Elbam, Jackson has already said he will not attend.

The RFAs have until Tuesday to sign their tenders or risk having their offers significantly reduced.

Another player who's been skipping OTAs, kicker Phil Dawson, might not be at the minicamp, a source said. If not, Dawson will be fined for each day he misses.
