Browns Acquire Chase Winovich From Patriots
3 years agoThe Cleveland Browns acquired outside linebacker Chase Winovich from the New England Patriots on Tuesday in exchange for linebacker Mack Wilson, according to sources. Both players mostly served as backups in 2021. Winovich failed to record a sack and played just 13.5% of the Patriots defensive snaps in 13 total games. The 26-year-old had 11 sacks in his first two NFL seasons in 2019 and 2020, though, so the Browns will be hoping to get that version of Winovich. Wilson had 42 tackles (26 solo) in 14 games (six starts) for Cleveland last year. He has only one sack in three NFL seasons, but he's tacked on 163 tackles (107 solo), five tackles for loss, one interception, nine passes defensed and one forced fumble in 43 games (28 starts).
