This is typically a dead period for NFL teams in the buildup to training camp, but the Cleveland Browns made a pair of roster moves Thursday.
Cleveland signed kicker Andre Szmyt and released veteran defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
#Browns have signed K Andre Szmyt (pronounced Schmidt) and released veteran DE Ogbo Okoronkwo, per the team. Okoronkwo signed a three-year, $19M free agency with the Browns two offseasons ago.
Okoronkwo was a big-ticket addition in free agency ahead of the 2023 season for the Browns, signing a three-year, $19 million deal with the franchise, giving the Browns a running mate for All-Pro Myles Garrett, before then two months later trading for Za’Darius Smith.
