Cleveland Browns owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam say the team is down to two options when it comes to their future stadium site: a $1 billion dollar renovation to their existing stadium, or a domed stadium outside of the city at double the cost.

The Haslams addressed the stadium situation and other team matters Monday while in Orlando at the NFL Owners Meetings. They added that neither option is better than the other at this point.

One of the key points the duo confirmed is that they do have an option to purchase 176 acres of land in Brook Park not far from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. That story was first reported by Ken Prendergast of NEOTrans blog in early February.

In response to the Brook Park speculation last month, the team confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) that they were looking at additional sites in Northeast Ohio to build a new stadium in addition to efforts to get a renovation deal done for Cleveland Browns Stadium.

Also last month, two Cleveland City Councilmembers told Signal Cleveland's Nick Castele that the Browns proposed a 50-50 split on a billion-dollar stadium renovation project, with state and local governments picking up upwards of $500 million, during a round of meetings last October.
