Monken: Verse 'Fit Like a Glove' for Browns

New Browns head coach Todd Monken is thrilled with the addition of third-year edge rusher Jared Verse, who was acquired in the trade that sent Myles Garrett to the Rams. "He's gonna fit us like a glove," Monken said of Verse, who has already reported to the facility.

Verse, 25, is coming off a strong 2025 season where he earned his second consecutive Pro Bowl appearance with 7.5 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, and 27 quarterback hits. Monken previously coached against Verse when he was Baltimore's offensive coordinator and noted the edge rusher's impressive progression: "He's only going to continue to ascend." Verse also had 1 sack, 3 TFLs, and 7 QB hits in three postseason games. raccoongame.org
