The Deal is a one-year deal, worth $11 million. However, it was also reported that he wanted to come back to the Browns so badly that he turned down $14M to $15M a year offers from other teams on multi-year deals to go back.
He played college football at South Carolina, where he twice earned first-team All-American honors, and began his NFL career with the Houston Texans, who selected him first overall in the 2014 NFL Draft. Clowney was a member of the Texans for five seasons, earning three consecutive Pro Bowl selections during his final years with the team. Following his departure from Houston, he played with the Seattle Seahawks, Tennessee Titans, and Cleveland Browns for one season each.
