According to Mike Garafolo, the Browns are signing S Andrew Sendejo to a one-year, $2.25 million deal.
Sendejo provides some depth for Cleveland at safety and on special teams while also bringing familiarity with much of the new coaching staff from their shared time with the Vikings.
Sendejo, 32, originally signed on with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent out of Rice back in 2010. He lasted just over a year in Dallas before he was claimed off of waivers by the Jets.
The Vikings later signed Sendejo to a four-year, $16 million contract that included $2.5 million guaranteed. He was set to make a base salary of $5.45 million for the 2019 season when the Vikings declined to pick up his option.
Sendejo later signed a one-year deal with the Eagles but was released midseason in order to protect a compensatory pick. He rejoined the Vikings to finish out the year.
In 2019, Sendejo appeared in 15 games for the Eagles and Vikings and recorded 45 tackles, one sack, three interceptions and four pass defenses. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 29 safety out of 86 qualifying players.
