Maliek Collins: Browns sign DT to two-year extension

THE FACT. Cleveland agreed to a two-year, $30 million extension with defensive tackle Maliek Collins on Saturday night, including $23 million guaranteed, per NBC Sports' Mike Florio and Pro Football Rumors, which credited NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pro Football Rumors reports the deal keeps Collins under Browns control through 2028.

THE VERDICT. Pro Football Rumors has Collins in all six Cleveland games this season with 3.5 sacks and eight quarterback pressures, and paying him now says the Browns are keeping him rather than shopping him before the deadline. IDP: hold him as a steady DL2 in big-play scoring formats, and the extension removes the trade-away risk that was the main reason to move him. Dynasty: cheap long-term IDP hold, buy if a manager in your league is dumping Browns defenders. Redraft: no action for offensive managers.
