Malik Jackson is officially a Cleveland Brown.

The NFL veteran just agreed to a one-year deal with the Browns after spending the previous two seasons with the Eagles. Jackson will be entering his 10th season in the NFL in 2021 after being selected in the 5th round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos following the end of his college career at Tennessee.

During his time in Denver, Jackson was a key piece of a Bronc team that won a Super Bowl. Following the success of his time in Denver, Jackson managed to parlay that into a six-year $85.5 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jackson has made a total of 126 appearances and 73 starts during his NFL career. During that time, he has registered 267 tackles, 99 quarterback hits and 35 sacks.
