Summary
Joel Bitonio made it official on Tuesday morning, deciding to retire after 12 seasons, all with the Browns. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe recorded an emergency edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast and looked back on Bitonio’s career with the Browns and their time covering one of the best linemen to wear the team’s helmet. They spend time talking about Bitonio’s media friendly approach and why it mattered during an era where there were more downs than ups. They also get into his play on the field and whether he’ll get a chance to make it to the Hall of Fame one day. They also share some of their favorite Bitonio memories.
