That's not unusual of late, but what is unusual is that the new Brown is a defensive lineman, as Cleveland signed defensive tackle Kalia Davis, who spent the first four seasons of his career with the San Francisco 49ers.
Davis signed a one-year contract worth up to three million dollars and is coming off a season in which he started all seventeen games for San Francisco.
Davis was the sixth-round draft pick of the 49ers in the 2022 draft from Central Florida, but missed his entire rookie season and all but three games in 2023 due to a knee injury.
Davis is 6'2 and 310 pounds and finished last season with ten solo tackles and a half sack.
Davis is a run stuffer rather than someone who will generate a lot of pass rush, and the Browns' signing of Davis will possibly mean the end of their interest in re-signing veteran Shelby Harris, who is a free agent.
The Browns did need some depth at defensive tackle as the team isn't sure of the status of Maliek Collins, who played very well before a late-season quad injury, and they have been disappointed with the play of 2024 second-rounder Mike Hall.
Second-year man Adin Huntington will be involved in the training camp battle at a position that may range from solid to needy depending on the health of Maliek Collins.
