The Cleveland Browns will have a new punter in 2015 after acquiring 11-year NFL veteran Andy Lee in a Saturday trade with the San Francisco 49ers.
Lee, who was drafted by the 49ers in the sixth round of the 2004 NFL Draft out of Pittsburgh, is a three-time Pro Bowler and a four-time All-Pro. He’s scheduled to earn $2.05 million in 2015 and is signed through the 2018 season.
Lee was close to becoming a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers several years ago but the 49ers chose to match the restricted offer sheet he had signed in 2007.
