Report: Browns will sign DT Sheldon Richardson to start next to Larry Ogunjobi

The Cleveland Browns have found their re-vamped starting defensive line for the 2019 season. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Browns will sign DT Sheldon Richardson to a three-year deal when free agency starts.

Former Vikings’ DT Sheldon Richardson intends to sign a three-year deal with the Cleveland Browns when free agency opens Wednesday, a source tells ESPN.

The correction to Schefter’s tweet would be that DE Olivier Vernon is expected to start, with DE Emmanuel Ogbah being a reserve.
