The Cleveland Browns released linebacker Paul Kruger on Monday as they continue to cut veteran players to speed up their rebuild. Kruger signed a five-year, $4o million contract back in 2013 and hasn’t been the player the Browns thought he would be.
Cleveland has moved on from a number of veteran players including Karlos Dansby and Donte Whitner. Kruger probably saw this move coming as the team looks to give young players reps. As is typically the case with veteran pass rushers, plenty of teams will be interested in Kruger.
Could Kruger be a fit for the San Diego Chargers?
