Brown (hip/shoulder) finalized a contract with the Browns on Wednesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Brown's signing was made official after he passed his physical earlier Wednesday, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Though Brown had been dealing with hip and shoulder injuries and missed Week 4 action before he was released by the Texans on Tuesday, the Browns were comfortable enough with what they saw to officially bring him on board. With David Njoku (knee) and Harrison Bryant (illness) both questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Brown could step into some kind of role with his new team right away if he can prove he's healthy enough to suit up.
