Cleveland Browns Looking For 'Best Bench Press' In High School Football

Think you can hammer out more reps than anybody on your team? How 'bout your entire state?

The Cleveland Browns launched their Virtual High School Showcase on GMTM so top athletes can prove their talent. They're inviting motivated athletes from the Class of 2021 and beyond to upload videos to gain exposure and be found.

To help recognize the strongest athlete from the rest, the top submission for the Bench Press activity - one of the eight different drills athletes can submit to - will earn a shoutout and an award from the Browns staff. The "Best Bench Press" Award will be handed out to the athlete who can hammer out the most reps, just like the future pros do at the NFL combine.

To earn the award and get some name recognition from an NFL team, create a GMTM profile, add your info and start recording your videos. And the more activities you submit to, the more likely you are to be discovered.

The Cleveland Browns High School Showcase is your chance to start building your brand before taking your talent to the next level. So, get out and get noticed!


How To Win The "Best Bench Press" Award?

To be eligible for the award, you have to submit a recent video to the Bench Press Activity activity in the Cleveland Browns High School Showcase.

The event is free for all athletes and all video uploads are saved to your GMTM profile so you can build your brand and keep curating your content collection.


Who can compete in the Cleveland Browns High School Showcase?

High school athletes in the Class of 2021 and younger can compete for free in this virtual event. This is a virtual event, so videos can be recorded in your backyard, local park, or on your high school field. All submissions should be recent and recorded in high quality with the entire drill visible in the video.
