However, the defensive tackle room is clearly still in need of a massive facelift. After the Carolina Panthers released third-year defensive tackle Daviyon Nixon, should the Browns consider putting a waiver claim in for him?

While Nixon may not be able to get up to speed to make an impact for the Browns in 2022, he does still have one year left on his rookie contract, meaning he would be in Cleveland over the summer to compete for a roster spot.
