Collins signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Browns on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Athletic, forceful, and just plain explosive penetrating the pocket. Shoots up the gap and is a regular concern for blockers in the middle of the D-line. A former wrestler who understands how to gain leverage on his opponents. Brings the athleticism to become a playmaker at defensive tackle. Doesn't always play up to his impressive athleticism, and consistency is a question mark. Can do a much better job of adjusting to the action in space, especially when it comes to getting his hands up in passing lanes and when blockers get a lock on him early in the play.
Long Range Potential: High-potential defensive tackle with consistency issues.
