Can the Browns keep their defensive tackle room intact and re-sign the veteran rotational players, Shelby Harris and Maurice Hurst II?
Heading into the 2024 off-season the Browns have 26 players that are currently slated to become free agents. Some of the players set for free agency were major contributors for Cleveland this season while others were disappointments or role players that could re-sign on small deals for 2024.
The Browns rebuilt the defensive line last year including one-year deals for veterans and players who had talent but hadn’t consistently lived up to their potential. General manager Andrew Berry rebuilt the defense last year and making sure that the core is kept intact for 2024 should be one of his priorities.
The team also signed veteran players that they thought would contribute more this year but for some reason or another didn’t work out. While bringing in new talent is always a must in free agency making sure to keep talent can be just as important.
Here are five free agents that the Browns should prioritize re-signing this off-season.
