Cleveland signed edge rusher Joe Tryon-Shoyinka from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and offensive lineman Cornelius Lucas from the Washington Commanders.
The Browns lost offensive lineman James Hudson to the New York Giants, Hudson signed a two-year contract for twelve million with the Giants.
Tyron-Shoyinka was the final selection in the first round of the 2021 draft by Tampa Bay from the University of Washington, collecting fifteen sacks over his four seasons with the Buccaneers but only two of those last season in fifteen games.
The twenty-six-year-old Tyron-Shoyinka had his fifth-year option refused before last season, which allowed him free agency this season.
Tyron-Shoyinka will play on passing downs and could replace Ogbo Okoronkwo, who may be released.
Okoronkwo has one season remaining on his contract and letting him go would give the Browns some extra cap space.
Cornelius Lucas signed a two-year contract at ten million (cheaper than James Hudson's contract with the Giants) to replace James Hudson as the reserve swingman, capable of playing guard or tackle.
Lucas started seven games for Washington last season and played five seasons for Washington after playing for the Lions, Saints, Rams, and Bears before moving to Washington.
Lucas played his college career at Kansas State and signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent in 2014.
Neither signing would qualify as anything to be too excited over but both should help with depth and see action in 2025.
