"Browns Secure Za'Darius Smith and Maurice Hurst for Next Season"
The Cleveland Browns are re-signing defensive linemen Za'Darius Smith and Maurice Hurst, with Smith's new deal being for two years and $23.5 million, and Hurst returning on a one-year deal worth up to $3.2 million. Smith, who finished second on the team with 5.5 sacks last season, was acquired from the Minnesota Vikings last offseason, while Hurst had a strong season with the Browns in 2023 before suffering a season-ending pectoral injury in December.
