The Browns have their first drafted rookie under contract.
Tight end Randall Telfer, a sixth-round pick from USC, has signed his deal with Cleveland, the team said Thursday.
The contract is for four seasons.
Telfer (6-4, 250) caught 21 passes for 197 yards and two touchdowns in his senior season of 2014. He’ll vie for a role in a Cleveland tight end corps that includes fellow sixth-round pick Malcolm Johnson from Mississippi State. The Browns saw top tight end Jordan Cameron depart in free agency but have since added reinforcements via the draft and also in free agency (ex-Cardinal Rob Housler).
