Jack Conklin
31-Year-Old
Free Agent
Released by the Browns in March of 2026.
Dropped by Cleveland
Conklin (concussion) was released by the Browns on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Conklin was sidelined for nine games during Cleveland's 2025 campaign due to concussions, but his release from the team Tuesday suggests he's moved past the issue. The former All-Pro offensive tackle has struggled to stay on the field as of late, appearing in just 21 of the Browns' 51 regular-season games over the last three years. Now a free agent, Conklin will likely find work with a team in need of tackle depth ahead of the 2026 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Nearly ready to rejoin lineup
Per coach Kevin Stefanski, Conklin is "really close" to making his season debut as he completes his recovery from a knee injury, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran offensive tackle hasn't played since Week 12 of last season, but Stefanski's remarks suggest Conklin could rejoin the lineup as soon as Sunday's game against the Jets. The Browns do face a short week of practice after that before taking on the Steelers on Thursday night in Week 3, however, so if the medical staff has any reservations about Conklin's progress, he could be held out for another game or two. "We'll continue to make smart decisions," Stefanski said Monday. James Hudson likely will continue to fill in for him at right tackle until Conklin is cleared to play.
