The Cleveland Browns are pursuing a veteran defensive end as training camp approaches this week. With Myles Garrett gone, Jared Verse is set to step into a starting role, supported by Alex Wright and Isaiah McGuire. General Manager Andrew Berry is searching for a rotational edge rusher after a failed physical prevented A.J. Epenesa from joining the team. Although various free agents are available—including Joey Bosa, Jadeveon Clowney, and Haason Reddick—the Browns may be considering undrafted free agents Tyreak Sapp and Logan Fano based on their preseason performance. The team hopes to secure additional help before the regular season begins on September 13 in Jacksonville.
