His nine catches were the most by a Brown in 2012 and marked the highest total by a Browns wide receiver since Antonio Bryant recorded nine receptions on January 1, 2006 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Yount played in all 16 games in 2012 and handled all long snapping duties. He also posted four tackles on punt coverage.
