The Cleveland Browns have terminated the contract of defensive back Gary Baxter, days after he underwent knee surgery, according to ClevelandBrowns.com.

August 5, 2008
Safety Gary Baxter underwent knee surgery on Tuesday morning, the the team's official web site reports. He had loose cartilage removed. Baxter tore the patella tendons in both knees on October 22, 2006 and hasn't been on the active roster since that time.

The Cleveland Browns have signed defensive back Gary Baxter to a one-year contract, according to ClevelandBrowns.com. Baxter has been working his way back onto the field during the past 17 months since injuring patellar tendons in both knees on Oct. 22, 2006 during a game against the Denver Broncos. "This is very important for me to sign a one-year deal here and to finish something I started," Baxter said. "This has been a long process but right now everything is going well and I'm going to continue my quest to make history. Both Phil Savage and Romeo Crennel brought me back and that shows a lot of loyalty and respect on the Browns' behalf. They know how hard I've been working. I'm running and feeling good--I'm putting in everything I've got. Things are looking very positive." Baxter played in three games in '06 and five games in '05 for the Browns after signing with the team on March 5, 2005. Baxter was one of Phil Savage's first big-name free agent signings as general manager of the Browns. The 29-year-old sat out the entire 2007 season while continuing to recover. He remained on the team's active roster for the first six weeks of the season and practiced on a limited basis before being placed on injured-reserve during October.
