Swagger, the Browns mascot, has passed away

Sad news from the mascot front. Swagger, a bull mastiff who represented the Browns as the official mascot, has passed away from cancer and a stroke. He was just 6 years old.

Swagger was the team’s dog and live mascot from 2014 until midway through last season, when healthy issues forced him to step aside. His son, Swagger Jr., took over for his ailing father starting in the Bills game last November.

Swagger was born on July 20, 2013.  He and Swagger Jr. are from FD Farms in Rootstown, Ohio.

The Browns released social media tributes to their beloved mascot, honoring Swagger for his six seasons of joyous service.
