CLEVELAND — Long before Maurice Sutton stepped on a football field, he began his first playing career. Starting when he was 3 or 4 months old, his mother would bring him to Cleveland to visit his grandparents, Gloria and Phineas Sutton. Whenever the youngster would get antsy, his grandmother would scoop him up and take him over to the piano, set him in her lap and lay his hands on the keys.
