Alex Wright signed an 3 year, $33 million extension with the Browns.
Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski congratulates Cleveland Browns defensive end Alex Wright after shutting down the New York Jets offense in the first half.He agreed with the Browns on a three-year contract extension worth $33 million, including $21 million guaranteed, a league source confirmed for cleveland.
com. Wright, who returned to his starting job opposite Myles Garrett five games ago, was off to a good start this season in his return from a torn triceps, notching three sacks for third on the team before suffering the quad injury in the loss to the Jets two games ago.Brian Hoyer blasts Browns for creating another QB circus He sat out last Sunday’s 23-16 loss to the Ravens, and also Wednesday’s practice as the Browns prepare for game on Sunday in Las Vegas against the Raiders. For the first five games of the season, Wright took a backseat to fellow edge rusher Isaiah McGuire, but returned to starting role in Week 6 in Pittsburgh, and started the next four games. In addition to the three sacks, he’s tied for seventh on the team with 23 tackles, and has forced one fumble. “Zay had an outstanding training camp for us and really won the starting spot,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said last week. “And then he had a little bit of little setback early in the season and just wasn’t as productive as he wanted to be and as we wanted him to be. And at the same time, Alex was really being productive. “And Alex sort of out-snapped him. We really don’t starters but he out-snapped him in there. And, you know, this is a great opportunity for Zay to get that back and to be the consistent playmaker that we know he can be.” Wright’s quad injury wasn’t serious enough to warrant going on injured reserve, where he would’ve had to remain for four games. The Browns are hoping he can get back soon and pick up where he left off, but they’re deep on the defensive line and can allow him the time he needs to heal.Mary Kay Cabot has more than 30 years experience covering the Cleveland Browns for The Plain Dealer and cleveland.com, and became only the second female in Pro Football Hall of Fame history to win the Bill Nunn...If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.and agree that your clicks, interactions, and personal information may be collected, recorded, and/or stored by us and social media and other third-party partners in accordance with our
