The Cleveland Browns headed into the offseason looking to make some tweaks to their already stout roster. They've made some quality, low-cost signings while also trading for Jerry Jeudy to bolster their receiver corp.

They also decided to retain some of their own guys and safety Grant Delpit was on that list. Before the regular season ended, Delpit inked a new deal. On Dec. 11, Delpit and the Browns agreed to a three-year, $36 million extension with $23 million guaranteed.

With Delpit in Cleveland for the long term, he decided to switch something up for 2024. The 25-year-old will be wearing a new number. Delpit commented on a social media post about him wearing No. 9.
