It looks like pass rusher Haason Reddick’s time with the Philadelphia Eagles is coming to a close. Could the Cleveland Browns be interested after the recent trade rumors?
Reddick has been one of the most productive pass rushers in the league over the past four seasons with double-digit sacks in all four seasons.
The Browns could be in search of another pass rusher with Za’Darius Smith hitting free agency if the team doesn’t attempt to re-sign him. Andrew Berry has a strong relationship with Howie Roseman in Philadelphia which could me he gives his old friend a call to ask what it would take to get the veteran.
You can never have enough pass rushers and it is hard to argue that the Browns wouldn’t get better if they acquired Reddick. One thing that could cause the Browns to hesitate is the $14.5 million base cap number for Reddick in the final year of his deal with the Eagles.
Reddick is also the same style of player as what the Browns already have in Ogbo Okoronkwo though having multiple players like that isn’t a bad thing. In the end, Reddick is still an elite pass rusher showing no real signs of slowing down and he will only be 30 heading into the 2024 season.
Andrew Berry would likely look to change that cap number with a new contract so depending on the trade price I would absolutely at least entertain the idea of adding him to this talented defensive front.
