Cleveland released Okoronkwo on Thursday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Okoronkwo had been under contract with the Browns for one more season via the three-year, $19 million deal he inked with the team in 2023, so his release is somewhat surprising even after a down year in 2024. He played a sizable rotational role in Cleveland's pass rush in both 2023 and 2024, finishing last year with 23 tackles (15 solo), including 3.0 sacks, plus one forced fumble while playing all 17 regular-season games. Okoronkwo will draw fair interest around the league for teams in need of a rotational contributor, and his departure opens up opportunities behind Myles Garrett with the Browns for all of Joe Tryon-Shoyinka, Alex Wright and Isaiah McGuire.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2020
2018
The Browns rewarded Okoronkwo with a three-year deal, including $12 million in guarantees following a breakout season in Houston. He recorded a career-high 44 tackles and five sacks -- both figures greater than the thee previous years combined with the Rams -- and will serve as a third-down rush specialist in Cleveland.
After recording a respectable 17.5 tackles for a loss and eight sacks in his final season at Oklahoma, the Rams traded up to select Okoronkwo in the fifth round of the 2018, and he was expected to challenge for a starting job immediately. A foot injury prevented him from participating in training camp that fall, and he didn't suit up for a single game as a rookie. Last year, he only played 117 defensive snaps with the majority of his playing time coming on special teams (145 snaps). Now entering his third season with the organization, Okoronkwo faces an uphill battle for meaningful playing time, and his once promising future with the Rams is in definite question -- especially after the team signed free-agent Leonard Floyd and drafted Terrell Lewis to beef up the outside linebacker depth chart. Okoronkwo is off the fantasy radar until proven otherwise.
The rookie fifth-round pick opened camp on the PUP list with a foot injury, so he's been missing out on valuable reps. Okoronkwo is expected to back up Matt Longacre at right outside linebacker and shouldn't be conisdered in the fantasy realm yet.
