Browns: Kruger Agrees To Deal, Leaves Rival Ravens

The Cleveland Browns and pass-rushing Ravens linebacker have reached an agreement to a five-year, $40 million dollar contract according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The 27-year-old linebacker spent his entire four year career within the AFC North, playing as a member of the defending super bowl champion Baltimore Ravens. 

After landing Kruger, Cleveland also agreed to a deal with former Raiders defensive tackle Desmond Bryant to the tune of five-years, $34 million, league sources informed ESPN.

"We are very excited about the addition of Paul Kruger to our team," new Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said in a release. "He is a talented linebacker who is going to make an immediate impact on our defense. When you put on the film you see physicality, explosive pass rush and a high motor. He has been very productive for the Ravens, and proved it at the highest level last season in the playoffs."
