The Browns have restructured the contract of one of their key offensive linemen.
According to multiple reports, Cleveland and right tackle Jack Conklin have agreed to a change in the last year of his contract. Conklin was due $12 million in non-guaranteed salary. But he will now earn $8 million guaranteed with $4 million in play-time incentives.
Conklin is coming off a torn patella tendon suffered in Week 12. He also missed games in 2021 due to a dislocated elbow.
According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, Conklin’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said a few weeks ago that Conklin is ahead of schedule in his rehab process and is on track for the start of the 2022 season.
Conklin signed a three-year $42 million deal with the Browns back in 2020. The No. 8 overall pick in 2016, Conklin played his first four seasons with the Titans.
