Cleveland Browns relocation controversy Complicated NFL franchise move

The Cleveland Browns relocation controversy, sometimes called "The Move" by fans, was the decision by then-Browns owner Art Modell to move the National Football League (NFL)'s Cleveland Browns from its long-time home of Cleveland to Baltimore during the 1995 NFL season. Subsequent legal actions by the city of Cleveland and Browns season ticket holders led the NFL to broker a compromise that saw the Browns franchise, history, records, and intellectual property remain in Cleveland. In return, Modell was permitted to establish a new franchise, the Baltimore Ravens and was allowed to transfer the football organization under his control to the new franchise. The Ravens are officially regarded by the NFL as an expansion team that began play in 1996. As nobody was prepared to purchase and operate a franchise for the 1996 season in Cleveland Stadium, the NFL deactivated the Browns franchise and the city of Cleveland agreed to demolish the stadium and rebuild it on the same site. In exchange the NFL agreed to reactivate the Browns by the 1999 season by adding a team or moving one from another city. In 1998, the NFL decided to establish its 31st football organization in Cleveland and sold the Browns franchise to a new owner for $530 million. The "new" Browns recruited players through an expansion draft and resumed play in 1999.
