Berea, OH – The Cleveland Browns have released offensive lineman Eric Steinbach.
Steinbach started each of the 62 games in which he appeared at left guard over the past five seasons with the Browns. He missed all of last season after having back surgery.
"These types of decisions are the difficult part of this job, especially when it involves a player such as Eric Steinbach," said Browns general manager Tom Heckert. "Eric exhibited tremendous leadership and passion for the game during his time here. We want to thank him for his contributions."
The 31-year-old Steinbach played with the Bengals from 2003-06.
