Browns | Veikune agrees to terms Sun Jul 26, 02:03 PM
The Cleveland Browns have agreed to terms with LB David Veikune on a four-year contract worth $3.5 million, according to Jason LaConfora on Twitter. The deal includes $1.8 million in guarantees.
| Footballguys view: Veikune has a motor that doesn't stop and sheds blockers easily with his strong hands. He knows how to effectively use his leverage to split double teams and get after the ball carrier, and does a good job of chasing plays down the line of scrimmage. He could be a good dynasty stash and hold because he could end up playing ILB next to D'Qwell Jackson in the future. |
