GREEN BAY - The exodus of free agents from the Green Bay Packers continued Wednesday when inside linebacker B.J. Goodson agreed to terms with the Cleveland Browns.

Goodson follows Blake Martinez and Kyler Fackrell (New York Giants) out the door.

There was mutual interest to keep Goodson in Green Bay, but a deal did not materialize.

Goodson, 26, was acquired by the Packers in a trade with the Giants on Sept. 2 and played on special teams in the season opener three days later. Green Bay gave up a seventh-round selection in return.
