Marcus Sherels, CB, Minnesota Vikings
Time with Joe Woods: Minnesota Vikings (2010-13)
2019 Stats: Eight games played, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery
When talking about cornerback depth options on the Browns in 2019, you have to give credit where it’s due. Terrence Mitchell, Special Teams ace Tavierre Thomas, and undrafted rookie Robert Jackson performed admirably down the stretch. They should not have needed to be relied upon as much as they had been.
A great signing would be veteran cornerback Marcus Sherels. Sherels knows Woods from their time in Minnesota, and Woods was the defensive backs coach when he was signed as an undrafted free agent. Sherels has made a career as a special teams player. Bringing him in would add competition to the back end of the roster and someone the young players can lean on early on.
