BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns have claimed offensive lineman Jonathan Cooper on waivers from the New England Patriots, the team announced Monday.Cooper is a well-traveled former first-round pick of the Arizona Cardinals. He was traded to the Patriots in the offseason along with a second-round draft pick for defensive end Chandler Jones.Cooper was the seventh overall pick in the 2013 draft. He was taken one spot after the Browns took linebacker Barkevious Mingo, who was traded to New England at the end of training camp.Cooper started 11 games in Arizona and was inactive for four games in New England before he was released on Saturday.However, Cooper was slated to start in New England. He was with the first team at right guard through the spring and the start of training camp but was sidelined by a foot injury on the third day of camp. While he was out, Shaq Mason took over at right guard and played well enough to keep the job. Cooper was taken off New Englands injury report last week, a few days before his release.Cooper played in 24 games in three seasons in Arizona, but he missed the 2013 season with a broken left fibula.The Browns have used three different starting centers this season. Cameron Ervings bruised lung forced the Browns to move John Greco from right guard to center. Alvin Bailey took over at right guard.Bailey did not play in Week 4 against Washington because of an OVI arrest earlier in the week. Austin Reiter started at center with Greco at guard. Reiter played well but tore his ACL late in the loss.Reiter went on injured reserve Monday, which opened the spot for Cooper. The team also released offensive lineman Anthony Fabiano.Adidas Tennis Hu Kopen . Pert has formerly spent time as an assistant coach with Cardiff City, Coventry City, and Bahrain mens national team.

Yeezy Boost 700 Bestellen .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back.Scotland skipper Greig Laidlaw is looking for a double helping of victory against Georgia this weekend as he aims to serve up a successful Six Nations campaign.The Dark Blues round off their autumn Test fixtures when they take on the eastern Europeans at Kilmarnocks Rugby Park on Saturday.Australia mugged Vern Cotters side of a win in their series opener at Murrayfield but the Scots made amends by pinching victory from Argentina three days ago.Now Laidlaw - who kicked a stoppage-time penalty to see off the Pumas -- has targeted another win as he looks ahead to their up-coming Six Nations schedule.Scotland kick off the 2017 campaign with a clash at home to Ireland on February 4 and the captain wants to march into that battle with a squad high on confidence.The Gloucester scrum-half said: If you can win games back to back, it builds confidence and it builds momentum.The next time this group comes together after this game will be for the Six Nations so if we can win again after Saturday, it will be huge for us.It makes such a big difference. It means the boys have confidence in each other and everything we are trying to do out on the field.To be honest, even though we fell short against Australia, we can still take confidence from the type of performance we put in.If we can get a performance and a result this weekend well be in a great spot.But Laidlaw knows his sides physicality will be tested to the limit by the heavy-weight Georgian line-up.The Lelos edged out Samoa on Saturday 20-16 largely thanks to their muscular forwards, who were rewarded for their heavy labour with a penalty try and another push-over surge.But having seen his side battered about by both the Wallabies and Argentina, Laidlaw is confident Scotland can handle what the visitors will have to offer.Georgia are developing into a good side, said the Scotland skipper. They have had a lot of positive results this year and Im sure they will be conffident in their own right.ddddddddddddThey are big on their scrummaging and their forward play. Coming off the back of a big win they will be coming here to cause an upset.We will have to be right up for it.We need to play an aggressive game because they are an aggressive team themselves who like the contact side of the game.But so do we and we have shown that these last two weeks.We enjoyed winning on Saturday so its very important we finish off this series with another win.The two games so far have been pretty brutal and thats part of the challenge. It wont drop off and we as players have go to drive that part of our performance forward.We understand what this game will be about and its up to us to put in a performance at the weekend. We need to get our own stuff right, though. We cant be too worried about Georgia.If we can get our skill sets right and get our dangerous players with ball in hand and space to run in, then I think we can cause them some problems.Meanwhile, Laidlaw admits he has sympathy for his understudy Ali Price.The Glasgow half-back was handed his first call-up ahead of the Aussies duel but has so far been left to kick his heels on the bench while Cotter left the captain to play all 160 minutes of this months Murrayfield double header.Laidlaw should start again this weekend but he reckons he will make way at some point to finally hand Price his debut cap.Im sure Ali will be frustrated, Ive been there myself, said Laidlaw. He is level-headed and his attitude has been second to none since he came in.He has trained brilliantly, got his head down and worked hard. Thats credit to him.Hes been selected for a reason and thats because hes been playing well. He just needs to keep his head down and his chance will come. He will have a big career when he gets his break. ' ' '
