Blocking alert: Browns adding TE Darren Fells for 3 years, $12 million

I have made a habit of putting a blocking tight end on my free agency wishlist the past few years. It only figures that the year I didn’t do that, the Browns pull the trigger on one.

This morning, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported that Cleveland is signing TE Darren Fells to a 3-year, $12 million deal.

The #Browns are signing TE Darren Fells to a 3-year deal worth $12M, source said. That will help the run game immensely.

Fells is already 31 years old, and got a late start to his NFL career as he was a college basketball player.
