Jimmy Haslam, the newest owner of the Cleveland Browns, is getting close to taking an unprecedented step in Browns franchise history.
According to John Funk of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer, the Browns are expected to announce this week they have agreed to sell naming rights to Cleveland Browns Stadium to the Akron-based FirstEnergy. The Browns have never sold the naming rights to a building they've played in.
There are only eight stadiums in the NFL that would remain without naming rights deals: Arrowhead Stadium (Kansas City Chiefs), Candlestick Park (San Francisco 49ers), Cowboys Stadium (Dallas Cowboys), Georgia Dome (Atlanta Falcons), Lambeau Field (Green Bay Packers), Paul Brown Stadium (Cincinnati Bengals), Ralph Wilson Stadium (Buffalo Bills) and Soldier Field (Chicago Bears).
