How and When He Joined the Browns: With the Browns deciding to not bring Christian Kirksey or Joe Schobert back, Cleveland signed Goodson to a 1-year, $2.4 million deal as a free agent in March 2020. He was originally a 4th round draft pick by the Giants in 2016, and spent the 2019 season with the Packers.

Productivity Level Last Season: In 14 regular season games with the Browns, Goodson was the team’s leading tackler (91) and registered a 12 sack, 2 tackles for a loss, 3 quarterback hits, 2 interceptions, 6 passes defended, and 1 fumble recovery.
