Browns Target Offense, Consider Emerson in Free Agency

0:00On March 30, the Cleveland Browns went on a spinning spree in the 2026 NFL free agency, beefing up their roster for the rebuild. General manager Andrew Berry targeted the offense big time, but they still snag former Jets linebacker Quincy Williams to step in for Devon Bush. Williams is linking back up with new defensive coordinator Mike Routenberg, his old linebackers coach from 2021 to 2024. Meanwhile, X Brown's cornerback Martin Emerson Jr., their 2022 3rd round pick, sits unsigned on the market. The 25-year-old missed all of last season with a torn Achilles from training camp, but is good to go now. Berry gave a real talk on Emerson, saying he'd love to bring him back selfishly. But he's realistic. With Denzel Ward and Tyson Campbell locking down spots, Emerson needs a real shot to start somewhere to hit his goals. Emerson balled out early, 63 tackles, 15 past deflections, and a sack as a rookie in 2022. Then in 2023, he had 59 tackles, 14 deflections, and 4 picks over 16 games.
