Browns signing former Panthers rushing leader

This offseason, the Cleveland Browns will not be sleeping on the job.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday that the Browns have signed veteran running back D’Onta Foreman. After spending last season with the Chicago Bears, Foreman is now headed to Cleveland.

Foreman, 27, led the Carolina Panthers with 914 running yards and five touchdowns in 2022 (after Christian McCaffrey was traded midway through the season). He had less success in Chicago last season, sharing the backfield with Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson. Nonetheless, Foreman racked up 425 yards and four touchdowns in just nine games.

The Browns expect star running back Nick Chubb to return from a ruptured ACL, and they also have Jerome Ford, Nyheim Hines, and Pierre Strong Jr. on the depth chart. Foreman is Cleveland’s most talented and experienced downhill runner outside of Chubb, and he adds to the team’s impressive offseason of skill player additions.
