Browns place fifth-round tender on RFA Rashard Higgins

The Cleveland Browns began preparing for free agency on Friday by placing free agent tenders on wide receiver Rashard Higgins, defensive tackle Trevon Coley and defensive back Jermaine Whitehead.

Coley, claimed off waivers from the Baltimore Ravens near the end of the 2016 season, has not done much during his time with the Browns, registering 80 tackles and 2.5 sacks in two seasons.

Whitehead was a waiver pickup last season from the Green Bay Packers and played seven games with the Browns as a special teams member.

Coley and Whitehead are both restricted free agents and it is somewhat unlikely that another team will give them much thought.
