Browns Target Speedy WR Shaheed for Offense, Special Teams

0:00On this March 7th, here's what's making headlines with the NFL. The Cleveland Browns face a busy offseason after two years with the league's worst offense. New head coach Todd Munkin and General Manager Andrew Berry need to rebuild the offensive line and add speed at wide receiver. One smart free agency target could be Rashid Shaheed, the speedy receiver and return specialist from the Seattle Seahawks. Shaheed got drafted by the New Orleans Saints in 2022. Earned pro-bowl nods on special teams and became an all pro-returner in 20. 23. Traded to Seattle midseason. He helped them win the Super Bowl, catching 15 passes for 188 yards in just nine games. He averages nearly 15 yards per catch career-wide, perfect as a deep threat. Browns fans have seen weak special teams for years under the previous coach, with no pun return touchdown since 2022 and none on kicks. Since 2009, Shaheed brings elite return skills, averaging 13 yards per punt return and nearly 25 on kicks, including multiple touchdown returns.

1:06Adding him would boost the new special team's coordinator, Byron Storer, in his first year calling the shots. Storer learned from a top coach in Green Bay and Shaheed's experience would give the unit instant pop right away. At 27, Shaheed stays in his prime and could mentor young receivers like Isaiah Bond, who flashed late in his rookie year. This move fits the Browns push for quick fixes on offense and special teams.
