Dwayne Bowe Finally Healthy Enough To Prove His Worth To The Cleveland Browns

At one time, wide receiver Dwayen Bowe looked like he was going to be the next big thing. Back in 2010 he caught 72 balls for over 1100 yards and 15 touchdowns. He followed that up with another solid season in '11 with 82 receptions for over 1100 yards, but since then he has slowly fallen off the radar.

Was it his fault? Was it because he didn't have a good quarterback in Kansas City? Whatever it was, the Chiefs decided they were done with him after last season. Now he is trying to prove he can still be the man, but with the Cleveland Browns. There is just one problem.

He hasn't really played yet.

Three games into the season he has a whopping eight plays under his belt and has yet to make a catch. He did injure his hamstring during training camp so much of the time he has been sitting has been recovery time, but last week he was a healthy scratch from the roster

Talk about an easy way to make $9 million, right?

Talk sprang up that the team may be looking to ditch him, but the Browns were quick to say that is not the case at all. This Sunday they are hoping to see what he can do against the Chargers. Bowe is just as eager to show them:

“I can't wait to go out there and showcase my talent and be a ringleader for the guys and go out there and bring home a win,” Bowe said. “That’s all I can ask for. If God's capable of having me out there playing, that's what I'm going to do.”

The Chargers passing defense has been kind of stingy this season (189 yards/game) so that may be easier said then done.
