What should Cleveland Browns do with Christian Kirksey?

The last two seasons have ended the same way for Cleveland Browns linebacker Christian Kirksey, he was placed on injured reserve in November 2018 after playing seven games and landed on IR again after playing just two games in 2019.

Kirksey is good when he is able to stay on the field, he was top-10 in tackles in both 2016 and 2017 when he played all 16 games. But the best ability in the NFL is availability which he hasn't had recently.

After those two great campaigns Kirksey signed a four-year $38 million contract which is about nine and half million a year which is relatively high for a linebacker.
