Malik Jackson is officially a member of the Cleveland Browns. The veteran defensive tackle signed his free agent contract with the team on Tuesday, days after agreeing to terms with Cleveland.
Jackson spent the last two seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, though he missed almost all of the 2019 campaign with a foot injury. He logged 28 tackles and 2.5 sacks for Philadelphia in 2020.
The 31-year-old can play inside or outside, making him a natural fit with versatile pieces like Myles Garrett and Sheldon Richardson. He does have experience playing under Browns defensive coordinator Joe Woods from their respective times in Denver together.
