10 former Browns who could return to Cleveland in free agency

As the Cleveland Browns look to get back into the playoffs in 2023, they will have to improve their roster in free agency and through the 2023 NFL Draft. As the new league year nears, could the Browns turn back to players who previously spent time in Cleveland in past years? Names like Jordan Poyer and Larry Ogunjobi have left the Browns and turned into ever-down necessities elsewhere. Both are also free agents. Who else is out there that has contributed to the Browns in the past that could return?

Here are 10 pending free agents who sit at positions of need for the Browns that have gone on to be significant contributors elsewhere after leaving Cleveland.
