Cleveland Browns' general manager Andrew Berry challenged the organization to do more in the name of social justice in the days after George Floyd died in Minneapolis police custody after an officer kneeled on his neck for more than 8 minutes. Berry, who is one of two black general managers in the NFL, pleaded to donate $8,460 to the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund if 50 Browns employees would do a list of things, ESPN reported Thursday. COLTS' DARIUS LEONARD SAYS HE WAS 'RACIALLY PROFILED' AT FAST-FOOD JOINT: 'CAN'T EVEN ENJOY EATING ANYMORE'Berry’s challenge to them included spending 8 minutes and 46 seconds on one of the forms of educational entertainment he attached in the email, sign up for a social justice initiative and donate to a social justice cause. The 33-year-old told ESPN that it wasn’t his platform to enact change that helped him craft the message and start this challenge. “It's more that I want to see tangible, meaningful action around this cause because I think it's the right thing to do,” he told ESPN.
