ALERTING: Cleveland Browns to Sign Veteran offensive lineman to a guaranteed contract
According to Michael Dunn’s agent, David Canter, the Cleveland Browns are re-signing the veteran offensive lineman on a one-year deal worth $1.4 million with full guarantees.
Dunn, who began his career as a bit of an experienced journeyman, has settled in with the Browns since joining them prior to the 2020 campaign.
Throughout his 40 game appearances, Dunn has had two starts for the Cleveland Browns in 2023.Dunn received a 60.2 overall grade from Pro Football Focus last season while allowing just one sack in 133 pass-protection snaps.
How Cleveland Browns Are Enhanced by Michael Dunn
The Cleveland Browns aim to be a championship-caliber football club, and offensive line depth is essential to that goal.
Following brief stops with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, and an AAF season, Dunn’s efforts in the trenches are obviously valued by the Cleveland Browns.
Dunn played in 12 games for the Browns in the previous season, demonstrating his ability to fill in at short notice and provide quality snaps when needed.
The Browns have kept Michael Dunn, Wyatt Teller, and Joel Bitonio on the roster through the 2024 season, demonstrating that they recognize the value of continuity and have taken steps this offseason to preserve one of the best interior offensive line combinations in the league.
Cleveland hopes to go past the AFC Wild Card round, where a loss to the Houston Texans in 2023 marked the end of the Browns’ season.
