BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns have agreed to terms with veteran safety Rodney McLeod, a source told ESPN on Thursday.
McLeod will likely step into a key backup role in the Cleveland secondary behind starting safeties Grant Delpit and Juan Thornhill, whom the Browns signed earlier in free agency.
McLeod enjoyed a rejuvenation in his 11th NFL season in 2022, emerging in his first season with the Indianapolis Colts as a key member of one of the league's underrated defenses. He registered career highs in pass deflections (8) and tackles for losses (8) and was the team's third-leading tackler with 96 stops.
