Former radio voice Jim Donovan to be inducted into 2024 class of Cleveland Browns Legends

Throughout his 25 years as the radio voice of the Cleveland Browns, Jim Donovan was often referred to as "legendary" for his remarkable play-by-play ability.

This Sunday, that title will become a permanent part of Jimmy's Browns legacy.

The team announced on Thursday that Jimmy has been named to the 2024 class of Browns Legends. He will be honored alongside former Browns kicker Phil Dawson at halftime of Sunday's game against the New York Giants at Huntington Bank Field.

Once he is officially inducted on Sunday, Jimmy will join Hall of Fame coach Paul Brown as the only non-players to be honored as Cleveland Browns Legends.

Jimmy was named the radio "Voice of the Browns" when the team returned to the NFL as an expansion franchise in 1999. Amid the numerous changes in coaches and general managers and despite many more losing seasons than winning ones, Jimmy was always the one constant that Browns fans could look forward to enjoying every Sunday.
