BEREA, Ohio -- New Cleveland Browns linebacker Matt Roth is happy to be out of Miami after what he termed a falling out with the Dolphins.
Roth was claimed off waivers by the Browns this week after totalling 158 tackles and 12 1/2 sacks in five seasons in Miami.
He started a career-high 14 games last season, three years after the Dolphins selected him in the second round of the draft.
Roth says the Dolphins questioned whether he was really hurt after he missed all of training camp with a groin injury.
"I've got five more weeks and then I'm a free agent," Roth said. "It's one of those things where the writing was on the wall. Neither party was happy, so it's best to go our separate ways."
