The Cleveland Browns are reportedly considering an unlikely defender to bolster their struggling backline. Veteran edge rusher Tyus Bowser, who last played for the Miami Dolphins in 2024, was in town for a workout with the Browns.
Bowser's injury history is well-documented, with just 19.5 sacks in seven seasons, primarily with the Baltimore Ravens. Despite being a former second-round pick in 2017, Bowser's production has been underwhelming, with a career-high 17 games played in 2021.
The Browns' current depth chart at defensive end starts with Jared Verse, Alex Wright, and Isaiah McGuire, which fans are content with. However, Cleveland GM Andrew Berry might be getting desperate for another veteran option.
A look at Bowser's games played history explains why the Browns might be desperate. He has played just 38 games in four seasons, with a career-low 0 games played in 2025 and 2023.
This move comes after a surprise visit from former Cleveland DE Jadeveon Clowney did not lead to a reunion, as the mammoth defender returned to the team that drafted him instead.
It remains to be seen if the Browns will sign Bowser, but his workout is an indication that they are exploring all options to shore up their backline.
