Former Browns DT Malik Jackson retires after 10 seasons

Malik Jackson, who spent the 2021 season with the Cleveland Browns, announced his retirement on Friday from the NFL.

The Browns signed Jackson to a one-year contract in 2021 in an attempt to bring the much-ballyhooed “veteran presence” to the defensive line. It sounded good on paper to place on the inside of a line that featured defensive ends Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney, but it did not work out as planned.
