  • Accepts pay cut

    Vernon and the Browns have agreed to a restructured contract that includes a no-tag clause for next offseason, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Reports earlier this offseason suggested Vernon might be released, as he was scheduled for a $15.5 million cap hit in the final season of a five-year contract. His new deal for 2020 includes $11 million guaranteed, with another $2 million available via incentives. The 30-year-old pass rusher was held back by a knee injury last season, finishing with career lows for games played (10), tackles (26) and sacks (3.5) in his first year with the Browns. Vernon is still a useful player when he's on the…read more

  • Team has time for decision

    The Browns have until a week before the regular season opens to release Vernon without having to pay him, Terry Pluto of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has one more year on his contract, valued at $15 million, and the Browns will be evaluating him over the summer. His impact as an edge rusher is well known, but recently Vernon's durability has become a concern. The 29-year-old defensive end missed four games in 2017 and five games in 2018 due to high-ankle sprains before last season's knee injury limited him to 10 games. The Browns are aware that when healthy last season, Vernon made an impact and could be a big piece of the defensive…read more

  • With Browns for now

    Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski assumes Vernon will be part of the Browns' 2020 roster, Marla Ridnour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: The Browns did not select a defensive end during the seven rounds of the draft, suggesting Vernon will be around for the 2020 season. "That's my assumption. Obviously, I think Olivier is a really great player, unfortunately he was banged up a little bit. We look forward to all our guys contributing next year," said Stefanski, who added that no messages should be read into the team not drafting a defensive end. "But I wouldn't say it was a message of any sort, the fact we didn't draft a…read more

  • Could be cap casualty

    General manager Andrew Berry declined to say Tuesday whether the Browns intend to bring Vernon back for the 2020 season, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Vernon's inaugural season in Cleveland didn't live up to expectations, as he recorded just 26 tackles (20 solo) and 3.5 sacks across 10 contests -- the defensive end's worst marks since his rookie campaign in 2012. A knee injury significantly hampered Vernon's output during the second half of the season, and it's worth noting that he's now failed to play a full 16-game slate in three straight years. He'll be owed a non-guaranteed salary of $15.5 million if he remains on Cleveland's roster to…read more

  • Has active Week 17

    Vernon had two tackles and half a sack in a 33-23 loss to the Bengals in Week 17. He finished the season with 26 tackles, 3.5 sacks and one forced fumble over 10 games.

    Analysis: Vernon played 53 snaps (77 percent), the most activity since Week 9 against Denver. The 29-year-old defensive end initially was a formidable pairing along with Myles Garrett at the opposite end, but he dealt with a knee injury over the second half of the season that limited his output. It was the third straight season he failed to play a full 16-game season. Vernon, who has one year remaining on a five-year contract, is expected to return as a starter on a potentially productive defensive line.

  • Will return Week 17

    Vernon (knee) is active Week 17 against Cincinnati.

    Analysis: Vernon has played in just one game (12 snaps) over the past seven weeks, but after practicing in a limited capacity all week long, he'll be healthy enough to suit up in hopes of ending the season on a positive note. The Browns did not officially announce any lineup changes at the position, however, so it's unclear exactly how the snaps will shake out between Vernon, Chad Thomas and Bryan Cox.

  • Questionable for season finale

    Vernon (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional contest against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Vernon logged a trio of limited practices this week, and he appears to have a fair shot at retaking the field after a three-game absence. If the veteran defensive end is forced to miss more time, however, he'll be replaced by Bryan Cox in the starting lineup again.

  • Chance to face Bengals

    Coach Freddie Kitchens said Thursday that Vernon (knee) has "a chance" to suit up for Sunday's season finale in Cincinnati, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has missed three straight games due to a lingering knee injury, and six of the last seven contests overall. Kitchens said that the veteran is still being considered day-to-day.

  • Inactive, as expected

    Vernon (knee) is inactive Week 16 against the Ravens.

    Analysis: This will be Vernon's third consecutive game missed and sixth overall in his last seven opportunities to take the field. He'll be replaced in the starting lineup by Bryan Cox.

  • Headed for third straight absence

    Vernon (knee) is expected to miss the Browns' Week 16 matchup against the Ravens, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Vernon logged limited practices throughout the week but is trending toward his third consecutive absence. Bryan Cox would see a continued role if Vernon is ruled out.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Vernon (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon worked as a limited practice participant this week and may be able to face Baltimore on Sunday. The 29-year-old has missed five of the last six games due to the knee injury.

  • No full practice yet

    Vernon (knee) was a limited participant for Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Vernon attempted to come back from the knee injury Week 12 but wasn't ready and has been inactive for the two games since.

  • Limited Wednesday

    Vernon (knee) was limited at Wednesday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has missed five of the last six games, but head coach Freddie Kitchens expressed optimism following the practice session. "He's close [to playing]," Kitchens said. "I don't know if he'll get there or not. We'll see at the end of the week."

  • Out vs. Cardinals

    Vernon (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Arizona.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old will be sidelined for the fifth time in the last sixth games due to the knee injury. Chad Thomas, Bryan Cox and Porter Gustin should handle the bulk of the reps at defensive end for the Browns in Week 15.

  • Handed day-to-day tag

    Vernon (knee) is considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has missed four of the last five games due to this condition, leaving the Browns without their two starting defensive ends since Myles Garrett is suspended. Expect Vernon to be limited if he's able to practice Wednesday.

  • Sidelined Week 14

    Vernon (knee) is inactive Week 14 against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Vernon returned from a three-game absence last week against Pittsburgh, but saw a season-low 12 snaps in the loss. He was then limited in practice both Wednesday and Thursday before getting scratched for Friday's session and entering the week with a "questionable" tag. With Vernon ultimately sidelined, there will be plenty of snaps at defensive end for the likes of Bryan Cox and Porter Gustin.

  • Officially questionable

    Vernon (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional tilt against the Bengals, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Vernon played through his lingering knee injury during Week 13's loss to the Steelers, in which he logged just 12 of 62 snaps on defense. The veteran defensive end could be in for a larger workload if cleared to suit up Sunday, though it remains to be seen whether he'll manage to work at full speed and return to his usual 80-percent snap share.

  • Bigger workload expected

    Vernon (knee) is expected to see more playing time Week 14 against the Bengals, Nate Ulrich and Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal report.

    Analysis: Vernon, who was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, returned from a three-game absence last week but played just 12 of 62 snaps. The Browns won't know until Sunday how much Vernon can give them.

  • Works in limited fashion

    Vernon (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Vernon was limited to 12 defensive snaps in this past Sunday's loss to the Steelers, and coach Freddie Kitchens said the defensive end was sore following the game, according to Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. It's a positive sign that Vernon is on the practice field, albeit in a limited capacity, for the first official session of the week. If he's able to work at full speed, Vernon could return to the 80-percent snap share he typically logs.

  • Limited in Week 13 return

    Vernon played just 12 snaps (19 percent), registering one tackle and one quarterback hit, in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Vernon made his return after missing three weeks but appeared to be limited. Scott Patsko of the Cleveland Plain Dealer said Vernon seemed to aggravate the knee during the game, but the Browns have not confirmed that.

  • Set to return

    Vernon (knee) is active Week 13 against Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Vernon is back from a three-week absence, providing a welcome boost to the pass rush with Myles Garrett (suspension) on the shelf. He had recorded a sack in back-to-back games prior to the injury, and regularly recorded multiple tackles while taking on a big chunk of the snap share. Look for Vernon to start opposite Chad Thomas on the defensive line.

  • Should play Sunday

    Vernon (knee) is expected to play Sunday against the Steelers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Vernon is officially questionable after working as a limited practice participant this week, but it appears as though he'll return from the three-game absence. The 29-year-old's return to action should provide a significant boost for the Browns in the absence of Myles Garrett (suspension).

  • Draws questionable tag

    Vernon (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon logged a trio of limited practices this week, and he appears to have a fair shot at suiting up Sunday versus Pittsburgh after a three-game absence. With Myles Garrett (suspension) unavailable, Vernon's presence would provide a much-needed boost to Cleveland's pass rush.

  • Limited practice Thursday

    Vernon (knee) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon, who has missed the last three games with an injured right knee, is practicing this week for the first time since sustaining the injury. He's been limited both Wednesday and Thursday, but his participation is a hopeful sign the defensive end can return this week against the Steelers.

  • Practices Wednesday

    Vernon (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vernon will practice for the first time since Week 9. Coach Freddy Kitchens has assessed Vernon as day-to-day, suggesting that the defensive end has a chance to retake the field Sunday against the Steelers. Vernon has three sacks over his last five contests, and the Browns could certainly use his pass-rushing aptitude with Myles Garrett (suspension) out.

  • Called day-to-day

    Coach Freddie Kitchens called Vernon (knee) day-to-day on Monday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has missed three consecutive games due to a lingering knee issue. He'll need to resume practicing in some capacity this week for any chance of suiting up against the Steelers on Sunday. Chad Thomas will start at defensive end as long as Vernon is unable to suit up.

  • Ruled out for Week 12

    Vernon (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Vernon will miss a third straight contest due to his lingering knee injury. In his stead, expect Chad Thomas to draw another start at defensive end. A timetable for Vernon's return to the lineup remains undisclosed.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Still not practicing

    Vernon (knee) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Coach Freddie Kitchens expressed optimism that Vernon could practice in some capacity later this week, but the starting defensive end's chances of suiting up against Miami on Sunday are looking shaky at best. Vernon has missed two straight games due to a lingering ankle injury. If he's forced to miss any more time, count on Chad Thomas to draw another start.

  • Not practicing Monday

    Vernon (knee) is not present at Monday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Vernon has missed two straight games due to a lingering knee injury. He'll need to resume practicing in some capacity this week for any chance of suiting up Sunday against the Dolphins. If Vernon is unable to go, expect Chad Thomas -- who has notched a sack in each of the last two games -- to start in his stead again.

  • Set to miss second straight game

    Vernon (knee) is ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Steelers, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vernon will watch a second consecutive game from the sideline. During this past Sunday's win over the Bills, Chad Thomas started at defensive end, recording a 78-percent snap share and notching his second sack of the year. The Browns hope Vernon can utilize the "mini-bye" from the weeknight game to get healthy for Week 12's matchup against the Dolphins.

  • Not looking good for Thursday

    Vernon (knee) is in a wait-and-see situation for Thursday's game against the Steelers according to coach Freddie Kitchens, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon was estimated to be a non-participant for a second straight day Tuesday, prompting Kitchens' comments. The coach also said he could not describe himself as optimistic that the 29-year-old will be able to play.

  • Unfavorable practice report

    Vernon (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: The Browns didn't hold a practice Monday, but Vernon wouldn't have been able to participate if they did. He was unable to practice last week, either, so he has an uphill climb to be ready for Thursday's game against the Steelers. If he's ruled out, Chad Thomas -- who notched a sack in Week 10 -- will start in his place again.

  • Ruled out against Bills

    Vernon (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Bills, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Vernon suffered a right knee injury during Week 9's loss to the Broncos, the severity of which will now cause him to miss Sunday's tilt against Buffalo. In the veteran defensive end's absence, Chris Smith and Chad Thomas both figure to see an uptick in rotational snaps.

  • Kept out of practice

    Vernon (knee) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Vernon went to the locker room with a sleeve on his right knee during this past Sunday's loss to the Broncos, and he's now in jeopardy of missing Week 10's matchup against the Bills. The veteran defensive end has played at least 68 percent of defensive snaps in each game this season, producing 23 tackles and three sacks. If he's ruled out Sunday, a rotation of Chris Smith and Chad Thomas figures to fill the void.

  • Hobbling after loss

    Vernon wore a sleeve on his right knee as he hobbled out of the locker room following Sunday's loss to the Broncos, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Cabot said Vernon's status for Week 10 against Buffalo could be in doubt based on his gait while leaving the locker room. Vernon has three sacks and 23 tackles through eight games.

  • Gets QB again

    Vernon (knee) had two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: The sack was Vernon's third of the season, and he now has racked up 23 tackles (19 solo) and a forced fumble as well. The 29-year-old limped off the field late in the fourth quarter of the game, so his status for Sunday's matchup against Buffalo looks up in the air at this point in the week.

  • Limps off late in loss

    Vernon limped off the field late in Sunday's loss to the Broncos, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Vernon's exit came right before Denver was able to simply kneel out the clock, so it's unclear whether he would have been able to return if any meaningful plays remained in the game. He was accompanied by medical personnel as he left the field.
