Signs tender
Hickman signed his restricted free-agent tender with the Browns on Thursday, Dominic Pagura of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The move keeps the safety in Cleveland for at least 2026. Hickman broke out last season, finishing with 103 tackles (51 solo) and seven pass breakups, including two interceptions. He should play a starting role again in the coming campaign.

Hickman, an undrafted free agent in 2023, saw an increase in snaps during his second NFL season and led Cleveland's secondary with a 71.3 coverage grade as a second-teamer behind Grant Delpit and Juan Thornhill. After the Browns let Thornhill go and Rodney McLeod retired, Hickman is in line to start at free safety alongside Delpit. He recorded 45 tackles, one pass defensed and a fumble recovery over 14 games in 2024. The Browns also brought in some experience in Damontae Kazee, who could challenge Hickman.
