The Cleveland Browns are progressing in talks on a deal with free agent pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney, and there is optimism that an agreement could be completed soon, sources told ESPN's Dianna Russini.
Clowney visited with the Browns last month, sources told ESPN, but left Cleveland without a deal. The No. 1 overall draft pick of 2014 reportedly was set to travel to Cleveland again Monday.
The Browns also pursued Clowney last offseason, but the three-time Pro Bowler reportedly rejected Cleveland's multiyear contract offer and ultimately signed a one-year, $13 million deal with the Tennessee Titans.
