I-Team: What we know about jobs tied to new Browns stadium project

Turner Construction has set a target for 75 percent of the workforce building the Cleveland Browns' new Brook Park stadium to be local hires. Turner Construction Vice President Taurean Spratt revealed that the team is finalizing worker numbers and plans outreach events next year to recruit staff for the project, which remains on schedule to open in 2029.

The domed venue is part of Haslam Sports Group's statewide sports investments topping $4 billion, alongside projects in Columbus and Berea. Browns co-owner Jimmy Haslam confirmed plans remain unchanged despite legal challenges over $600 million in state unclaimed funds allocated toward the stadium.
