According to Ian Rapoport of the Network, veteran receiversย Miles Austin andย Santonio Holmes could both be free agent options for the Browns.
The Browns find themselves in a tough situation right now as their Pro Bowl receiver, Josh Gordon, is facing a suspension that could be anywhere fromย eightย – 16 games for failing another drug test.
Many assumed Cleveland would address the position during the draft, but that wasn’t the case.
Neither Holmes or Austin haveย found any interest since their respective teams cut them loose for obvious cap reasons.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talkย reported last month that Holmesย wouldย likely wait until after the draft to sign with a new team, which makes plenty of sense as teams probably wanted to see what happenedย in the draft before rounding out their rosters.
Austin, 29, totaledย 24 receptions forย 244 yards receiving over the course of 12 games.
Holmes, 29,ย caught 23 passes forย 456 yards receiving and a touchdown over the course of 11 games.
We have both playersย listed in ourย Best Available Free Agents list.
