Olivier Vernon named as Cleveland Browns potential salary cap cut

Last season, John Dorsey spent money as if the Cleveland Browns were about to make a Super Bowl run. He was already paying a premium contract to Jarvis Landry and still added Odell Beckham, Jr. to the receiving corps.

He then forked out a lot of cash for Sheldon Richardson in free agency to bulk up their defensive line. In addition to that move, he added Olivier Vernon in a trade with the New York Giants, giving them two contracts in $15 million range on the defensive line — with Myles Garrett there as well, who is on a rookie contract but being a No.
