Browns Gain $21M Cap Space, Eyeing Pass Rusher, WR

0:00On March 17, the Cleveland Browns just gained a big boost in salary cap space thanks to some smart moves by General Manager Andrew Berry. They restructured offensive tackle Titus Howard's contract and picked up a huge injury insurance award, the third largest in the league, that jumped their available cap from $9 million to over $21 million. Berry added voidable years to Howard's 2-year $45 million extension from when they traded for him. This freed up $12 million right away without locking them in long-term. It's a tactic Berry often uses to stay flexible for future needs. This extra room gives the Browns real options heading into the offseason. They could sign players now to help new-head coach Todd Monkin compete in the tough AFC North, save for their rookie draft class, or hold off for A, spending spree next year. Looking ahead, the team might target a proven pass rusher to pair with Miles Garrett, or grab a veteran-wide receiver to mentor the young group and support Dishon Watson.
