Overview
- The Browns signed cornerback Damarri Mathis Tuesday after a successful workout and placed Dom Jones on waivers with a failed-physical designation to free a roster spot.
- Mathis was a 2022 fourth-round pick out of Pittsburgh who started early in Denver and has 103 career tackles and nine pass breakups across 43 NFL games.
- Mathis tore his ACL in his first practice with the Carolina Panthers in 2025, missed that season, rehabilitated through 2026, and was cleared to sign following his Cleveland workout.
- Dom Jones was an undrafted rookie in 2025 who played eight games before suffering a season-ending knee injury and the failed-physical tag shows he has not finished his recovery.
- The addition gives the Browns experienced depth behind starters Denzel Ward and Tyson Campbell and creates a camp competition for backup roles that could prompt more late roster moves.
