The Rams are snagging Edge Myles Garrett while sending Edge Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 second-rounder, and a 2029 third to Cleveland, according to multiple reports. Assuming the Rams don’t acquire another first-round pick before next April, the 2027 draft will mark the ninth time in 11 years that they went without a Round 1 selection. Even this year found them trading their first-rounder to Kansas City for CB Trent McDuffie. (They used another acquired from Atlanta during last year’s draft to select QB Ty Simpson 13th overall.)

The Browns on Friday announced that LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has landed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. That means he's out for the entire 2026 season. JOK is still trying to work back from a neck injury he suffered in Week 8 of 2024. He also spent 2025 on the reserve/PUP list.

Toledo S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren landed with the Browns in the second round of the NFL Draft. McNeil-Warren spent three of his four college seasons drawing starter-level playing time, working primarily as a “box” safety. That split became even more pronounced as his career progressed, according to Pro Football Focus numbers.

Browns LB Carson Schwesinger is active for today's game against the Browns. It's a bit surprising given that Schwesinger suffered a high ankle sprain last time Cleveland played (before the Week 9 bye), but he's been trying to work toward that all week.

Browns LB Carson Schwesinger is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. He returned to a limited practice Friday after missing Wednesday and Thursday workouts coming off the bye. Schwesinger also confirmed Friday that he's dealing with a high ankle sprain.

Browns LB Carson Schwesinger left Sunday's loss to the Patriots in the fourth quarter with what's believed to be a high ankle sprain, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The Browns opened training camp missing LB Jordan Hicks for "personal reasons." On Friday morning, he announced his retirement. That ends a nice 10-year career for the former third-round pick, who spent nearly all of those seasons starting for the Eagles, Cardinals, Vikings, and Browns. But it also deals another blow to a Cleveland LB corps already down Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah.

The Browns announced Monday that they're placing LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on the Reserve/PUP list. When that happens ahead of training camp, it means the player will miss the entire season. JOK sustained a neck injury in the Week 8 win over the Ravens last season and missed the rest of the year.

The Browns opened Round 2 of the NFL Draft by taking UCLA LB Carson Schwesinger. He spent just one season starting for the Bruins after arriving as a walk-on. That one season found him earning first-team All-American status with a big statistical season. That included an FBS-leading 90 solo tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 2 INTs, and 3 passes defensed.

After trading down from second to fifth, the Browns took DT Mason Graham in the first round of the NFL Draft. Graham totaled 18 tackles for loss and 9 sacks across three seasons at Michigan.

The Browns and Edge Myles Garrett have agreed a monster extension that includes $123.5 million in guarantees and a $40 million annual average, according to multiple sources. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Garrett's deal also includes a no-trade clause and ties him to the Browns through 2030. The annual average tops Raiders Edge Maxx Crosby and makes Garrett the league's highest-paid non-QB. It also comes about five weeks after Garrett asked the team to trade him.

Browns Edge Myles Garrett has officially requested that the team trade him. According to multiple reports, though, Browns GM Andrew Berry has maintained that he's not interested in moving Garrett.

The Browns have ruled LB Jordan Hicks out for Saturday's game against the Ravens because of a concussion.

The Browns are trading Edge Za'Darius Smith to the Lions for a 2025 fifth-round pick and a late-round pick swap in 2026. Smith has 5 sacks and 7 QB hits through nine games. He joins a Detroit defense that has tallied 5 sacks over three games since Edge Aidan Hutchinson went down -- including just 1 total sack over the past two weeks.

The Browns on Saturday placed LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah on IR with the neck injury that removed him from the Week 8 win over Baltimore. Owusu-Koramoah will be out at least through Week 13.

Browns LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah left the field on a spine board Sunday after suffering an apparent neck injury in the win over the Ravens.

Browns LB Jordan Hicks is active for today’s game against the Bengals. It’ll mark his return after two games down, but Hicks finished the week with a full Friday practice. He should be fine for planned usage in IDP leagues.

Browns Edge Myles Garrett will have an MRI Monday on both feet, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. Garrett said Friday that he was dealing with lingering issues in both feet that might need surgery after the season. But he apparently aggravated the issues in Sunday's loss to the Giants -- and is also dealing with compensatory problems now.

The Browns have agreed to a three-year contract extension with LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, according to multiple reports. The deal is worth up to $39 million, with $25 million of that guaranteed. JOK will be the sixth-highest paid LB by annual average, according to Over The Cap.

The Browns have ruled Edge Myles Garrett out for Sunday's game against the Bengals. He did sit out Friday's practice and is officially listed with shoulder and hamstring issues. But Garrett's sitting because Cleveland doesn't need this game. Beware of other Browns starting defenders in this game for that reason. Missing Garrett also makes Cleveland a worse team-defense play.
