Cleveland Browns 2025 Free Agency Tracker

In this story:
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry has his work cutout for him this offseason, as he looks to navigate a bloated salary cap situation to build the Browns back into a playoff contender.
That is easier said than done, especially with limited cap space at his disposal at the moment. Berry's plan will start to take shape, though, when the new league year officially opens at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 12.
It's unlikely Cleveland will go on some massive spending spree when free agency opens, but there will certainly be some opportunities to start filling the rosters biggest holes.
Berry will surely look to add some new faces while considered which of the team's own free agents to bring back for 2025. Keep tabs on all the Browns' offseason moves via this 2025 free agency tracker.
