Sam Webb: Not tendered by Cleveland
Rotowire
Webb is now an unrestricted free agent after the Browns opted not to tender him Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Webb spent the first half of the 2025 season on the Titans' practice squad after being cut by the Raiders at the end of training camp. He was signed to the Browns' active roster in mid-November, and across seven regular-season games (two starts) he recorded eight tackles (three solo) and one pass defense. He also returned a fumble for a touchdown. Webb's ability to contribute on special teams should garner interest from teams who are also looking for depth in the secondary.

Rotowire
Webb had four tackles and returned a fumble for a touchdown in Sunday's 20-18 win over Cincinnati in Week 18.
Webb entered the game for an injured Denzel Ward (neck) and impacted Cleveland's second consecutive win over a division rival to close out the regular season. After Devin Bush returned an interception 97 yards for a score, Webb scooped up a fumble on the Bengals' next possession and returned it 47 yards for a touchdown. The latter was signed off the Titans' practice squad in mid-November and was used sparingly before his Week 18 heroics. In seven games with the Browns, Webb had eight tackles and one pass defensed in addition to the fumble recovery and touchdown Sunday.

Raiders' Sam Webb: Not suiting up Week 15
Rotowire
Webb (back) is inactive for Monday's game against Atlanta.
Webb is dealing with a back injury and didn't practice at all this week. He was deemed doubtful heading into Monday, so it's no surprise that he won't suit up against the Falcons. Webb's absence will mostly be felt on special teams, as he's logged 90 snaps with that unit as opposed to 10 on defense over nine games this season.
