The original Cleveland Browns joined the NFL in 1950, coming from the All-America Football Conference along with the San Francisco 49ers. The current Browns franchise began playing in 1999, after Art Modell moved the original Browns to Baltimore after the 1995 season.
The current Cleveland Browns are an expansion team that entered the NFL in 1999. They replaced the Cleveland Browns that moved to Baltimore in 1996 and became the Ravens. That team began play in the All American Football Conference in 1946 as the Cleveland Browns and entered the NFL in 1950 as the Cleveland Browns.

The Cleveland Browns moved to Baltimore in 1996 after stadium issues with the city of Cleveland. Cleveland was allowed to keep the "Browns" intellectual property, name, team colors, etc. The players, farnchise, and owner (Art Modell) moved to Baltimore. The name "Ravens" was chosen as the winner of a name the team contest, to pay homage to Edgar Allen Poe who was born in Baltimore. In 1999 the NFL awarded Cleveland an expansion team. That team assumed the name "Cleveland Browns" and continued play with all the team records and history of the franchise that moved to Baltimore.
