Tyus Bowser worked out for the Cleveland Browns on Wednesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. This 31-year-old veteran linebacker, who actually had a brief, two-game stint right here in the Emerald City in 2024, is clearly still grinding for a roster spot. The Browns are giving him a serious look for some defensive help, and you gotta wonder what they see from his recent past.
A Quick Stop in the Emerald City
Bowser’s most recent action before this week’s workout was in 2024, when he last played for the Miami Dolphins. That season, he logged seven games and even started four for them. But get this: before that, he appeared in two games for Seattle while on our practice squad. Yep, a quick stop in the Emerald City, proving he was absolutely grinding to stay in the league even then. It shows a dedication, doesn’t it?
Cleveland’s Familiar Face & Bowser’s Career
The Browns aren’t just taking a random flyer on a vet, though. Their head coach, Todd Monken, knows Bowser well. Like, *really* well. Bowser spent the first seven years of his career with the Baltimore Ravens. Monken was actually the Ravens’ offensive coordinator from 2023-2025. That’s a huge connection, right? Bowser’s career stats definitely show his experience too. Across 98 games, with 28 starts under his belt, he’s racked up 19.5 sacks, 22 tackles for loss, and 48 quarterback hits. Those aren’t small numbers for a guy trying to make a comeback.
So, with this workout wrapped up, Bowser’s gotta be holding his breath, hoping to land with a new team. Could those solid career numbers, plus that deep familiarity with Coach Monken, be enough to earn him a spot in Cleveland? We’ll definitely be watching to see where this veteran ends up next. It’s always wild to see players moving through the league, isn’t it?
