A former Louisiana Ragin Cajun star had a day he will likely always remember on Sunday.
Receiver Ja Marcus Bradley, who played for Louisiana the last four years, compiled his first career NFL receptions in the Cleveland Browns 23-16 loss to the New York Jets.
Bradley, who stepped in as Cleveland s top available receiver with the team s top four options on the reserve/COVID-19 list, totaled five catches for 60 yards.
It was the first NFL action for Bradley, who was added to the active roster of the Cleveland Browns in early December but did see playing time, after being a member of their practice squad for most of the season.

A former Louisiana Ragin Cajun football standout found himself playing in his third consecutive game in the NFL on Sunday while equalling a career-high for tackles recorded in a single game.
Justin Juice Hamilton, who was a fixture on the Louisiana defensive front for four seasons, from 2011-2014, compiled three tackles for the Dallas Cowboys in their 41-33 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon.
Hamilton, who was signed off the Dallas practice squad to their active 53-man roster on October 19, was in uniform for the Cowboys Monday Night Football contest against the Arizona Cardinals at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas that same night, in front of a national television audience, where he also recorded three stops.
A former Louisiana Ragin Cajun star received some great news on Monday.
Receiver Ja Marcus Bradley, who played for Louisiana the last four years, was added to the active roster of the Cleveland Browns, after being a member of their practice squad.
For Bradley, who helped the Cajuns to 11 wins last season, this marks his first stint on an NFL active roster.
Bradley did not appear in Cleveland s 47-42 setback to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night.
The Browns signed Bradley as an undrafted free agent back in May.
The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Bradley caught 60 passes for 906 yards and ten touchdowns for Louisiana in 2019, good enough to be named a second-team All-Sun Belt Conference pick, as well as a third-team All-Louisiana selection.
