Browns Sign Julian Okwara Days Before NFL Draft

The Cleveland Browns have had a quiet offseason, making minor additions like signing Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and re-signing star pass rusher Myles Garrett, but the fanbase is concerned about the status of popular running back Nick Chubb, whose contract will expire at the end of the 2024 season. Chubb has not been re-signed and remains a free agent despite recently sharing a workout video that showcases his readiness for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, the Browns have signed former Lions linebacker Julian Okwara, who has had a mixed career thus far, to bolster their defense. Okwara's addition aims to enhance the linebacker depth as the team prepares for the 2025 NFL season. His experience with the Cardinals and the potential to play alongside Garrett could help him reach his untapped potential. As the NFL Draft approaches, the Browns still have room for improvement in their roster, especially in the running back position where Chubb's return is still a possibility.
