The Cleveland Browns have officially re-signed reserve defensive end Sam Kamara, who was an exclusive rights free agent.
A mainstay on their practice squad over the past two seasons, Kamara has even found himself on the active roster and a part of the 53-man roster in Cleveland as the wear and tear of the seasons rolled along. Kamara, who entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2021, has appeared in three games for the Browns and has racked up seven tackles and one tackle behind the line of scrimmage.
From last season’s defensive line group, the Browns have also brought back defensive end Za’Darius Smith and defensive tackles Shelby Harris and Maurice Hurst. In free agency, they signed Quinton Jefferson as the replacement for Jordan Elliott, who left for the San Francisco 49ers.
Kamara is no lock to make the roster, but the Browns have loved keeping him around, so one would have to assume he has a fast pass to the practice squad at the end of training camp.
