When the Cleveland Browns hired Andrew Berry away from the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020 to become their new General Manager, he was given the keys to the franchise. Part of his job duties is to oversee the college draft in April, sign free agents, re-sign existing players to new agreements, and deal with every portion of the roster.
That means that every player on the team deals with Berry regarding contracts. There are a few players on the current roster who are not a by-product of Berry’s choosing, but the vast majority are being paid by the Browns because Berry personally picked them.
