The Browns are signing linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah to a three-year extension worth up to $39 million with $25 million guaranteed.
Damien Woody and Harry Douglas get heated when debating which AFC North QB is under the most pressure to succeed this season. Daniel Oyefusi covers the Cleveland Browns for ESPN. Prior to ESPN, he covered the Miami Dolphins for the Miami Herald, as well as the Baltimore Ravens for The Baltimore Sun.

Owusu-Koramoah, 24, was named to his first Pro Bowl this past season after a breakout season in which he recorded 101 total tackles and 3.5 sacks, both career-best marks. He also ranked fourth among qualifying linebackers in stop percentage . "I think with Jeremiah, really from his rookie year, he's always made the high-end plays," general manager Andrew Berry said in late July."He has like matrix-type athleticism where he just has rare movement skills and he can play behind the line of scrimmage. He's fast.
"But where he's grown over the past three years is his ability to reduce his errors because sometimes our greatest traits also become our biggest negatives and his aggression at times would have him overcommit, and make two plays, give one up, make a play, give two up, things like that. And I think that is something that's decreased over the past three years, and hopefully will continue to decrease as we go into year four.
Owusu-Koramoah has appeared in 41 games and made 33 starts for the Browns, recording 247 tackles, five sacks, two interceptions and one forced fumble.
