Amari Cooper wants to retire with the Cleveland Browns

After holding out of OTAs and minicamp, the Cleveland Browns were able to reach an agreement with star wide receiver Amari Cooper to have him back with the team for the start of training camp. The team gave Cooper more guaranteed money, which he wanted most, but didn’t add any years, so he is still set to be a free agent after the season.

Cooper spoke to the media after the team’s first training camp practice on Thursday, saying that he wants to remain in Cleveland long-term and finish his career with the Browns.

The door is still open for Cooper to be in Cleveland long-term, though I thought the lack of added years was due to their belief in the young players at the position.

However, the team doesn’t get better without Cooper, and if he has another great year without showing signs of slowing down, the team should try to retain him moving forward.
