CLEVELAND, Ohio (92.3 The Fan) – The Browns tendered exclusive rights free agents Thomas Graham Jr. and Ben Stille Tuesday morning.
Graham, a 23-year-old cornerback, appeared in seven games with the Browns last season where he recorded six tackles. Originally a sixth-round pick by Chicago in 2021, Graham appeared in four games as a rookie with the Bears.
The Browns signed Graham to their active roster from the Bears' practice squad on Sept. 13, 2022.
Stille is a 25-year-old defensive tackle who appeared in seven games as a rookie in 2022 – six of those with the Browns, including a start.
Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by Miami, he appeared in one game with the Dolphins before being signed to the Browns' active roster from the Dolphins' practice squad on Nov. 16, 2022.
Tendering both players ensure the Browns retain exclusive negotiating rights with them, essentially keeping them with the team.
