The Browns spent a fortune coating their facility with some compound that was supposed to stop staph. While not an outbreak, the Browns' alarming rise in staph cases brought the club to request assistance from the Cleveland Clinic, its healthcare provider and a sponsor. The Clinic twice sent a team to examine the team's headquarters and indoor practice field house in Berea, Ohio.
The Clinic concluded the team was following proper procedure and CDC recommendations to prevent staph and that the five cases involving players were unrelated.
