BALTIMORE — The season has ended for the Cleveland Browns . That means the business side of the game takes over.
The Browns will spend Sunday cleaning out their lockers and going through exit interviews. For many, it will be the last time they'll be in the building.
There are 21 Browns players who are, according to OverTheCap.com , now free agents. They have another four restricted free agents, plus two exclusive-rights free agents.
Among the free agents are running back Nick Chubb , wide receiver Elijah Moore , offensive tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. and quarterback Jameis Winston . Wills and Winston had void years in their contracts, so they will cost a combined $14,044,056 in salary cap space next season even if they're not on the team.
The free-agency negotiation window opens on March 10 and runs until 3:59 p.m. on March 12. At 4 p.m. March 12, the official league year begins and free-agent contracts can be signed.
