Browns Pro-Bowl guard guard Joel Bitonio was hurt early in the team’s playoff game against the Houston Texans, with MoCo’s very own Michael Dunn coming in to take over. Dunn is Bethesda native and 2012 graduate of Walt Whitman High School.

Dunn went undrafted in 2017 and bounced around a bit before latching on with the Browns in 2020. He has been with the Browns for four seasons and has started two games in each of the last three. Prior to the NFL, he was a four year starter at the University of Maryland. At UMD, he earned 2x Honorable Mention All-Big Ten (2015, 2016) and was a 3x All-Big Ten Academic Selection (2014, 2015, 2016).

While at Whitman, he played offensive tackle and guard for the Vikings and was named lineman of the year for his team in the 2011 season and a second team all-county selection as a senior.
