Back on field
Newsome (hamstring) participated during OTAs on Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
ANALYSIS
Newsome spent the last four games of Cleveland's 2024 season on its injured reserve list with a hamstring issue, but he's now back in football shape for offseason workouts. He's also entering the final year of his rookie contract having established himself as a quality starter. He projects to start again in 2025 alongside Martin Emerson and reigning Pro Bowler Denzel Ward.

Newsome shifted to slot corner in his second season and performed better, per Pro Football Focus, despite not liking the new role. Both he and Denzel Ward played the slot during camp, so there should be some movement among Newsome, Ward and Martin Emerson in defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz's scheme. That trio is a strong coverage unit and perhaps make up the best level of the defense.
