Browns Eye Potential Roster Boost Ahead of Regular Season
As the Cleveland Browns work through preseason evaluations following their 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers, attention has shifted to possible free-agent acquisitions that could shore up key areas before the regular season kicks off. Several high-profile veterans are still on the market, and the Browns may look to these options to address depth concerns.
**Jarvis Landry**, a fan favorite and former Browns wide receiver, remains a free agent. Landry’s experience and familiarity with the team could make him a valuable addition, especially in the slot receiver role. With the Browns looking for reliable pass-catchers beyond Amari Cooper, Landry could be a perfect fit.
On the offensive line, **Dalton Risner** stands out as one of the best available free agents. The former Denver Broncos guard could provide much-needed depth and versatility, helping the Browns solidify protection for quarterback Deshaun Watson.
In the backfield, **Leonard Fournette** could be a game-changing signing. Following the departure of Kareem Hunt, the Browns need a versatile backup to pair with Nick Chubb. Fournette’s ability to contribute both as a runner and receiver could seamlessly fill that gap.
Defensively, **John Johnson III**, who was recently released by the Browns, remains available. Given his familiarity with the team’s defensive scheme, a reunion might make sense if they need additional depth at safety, especially with potential injuries in mind.
As the preseason continues, the Browns have ample opportunities to assess these options and make last-minute moves to bolster their roster for the upcoming season. The coming weeks will be critical as the team finalizes its lineup for a competitive AFC North campaign.
