The Cleveland Browns have acquired veteran left tackle Cam Robinson in a trade with the Houston Texans, per a team source.<\/p>\n
The Athletic confirmed Monday that the Texans are trading Robinson for a swap of late-round picks. Robinson got $10.75 million in guaranteed money on a one-year deal he signed with the Texans in March, but he made just one start in four games.<\/p>\n
Robinson, a 2017 second-round pick, will presumably become the immediate starter at left tackle for the Browns, who have had four starting offensive line combinations over their four games.<\/p>\n
KT Leveston became the season\u2019s third starter at left tackle in Sunday\u2019s loss to Detroit. Dawand Jones was replaced after two games by Cornelius Lucas, then Jones suffered a season-ending knee injury while playing right tackle in Week 3. Lucas moved back to right tackle in Week 4 at Detroit.<\/p>\n
Because the Browns didn\u2019t draft an offensive lineman in April and their only 2024 offensive line draft pick, Zak Zinter, hasn\u2019t played, the team has been scrambling for help for more than a month now. Leveston was acquired in a trade on Aug. 27 for a 2028 seventh-round pick. Cleveland signed tackle Thayer Munford off New England\u2019s practice squad last week when Jones was placed on injured reserve, but Munford was inactive for his first game with the Browns.<\/p>\n
Robinson, who turns 30 on Oct. 9, has started 102 career games. He spent seven full seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars before being traded to Minnesota before the deadline last year and finishing the season as the Vikings\u2019 starting left tackle. The 1-3 Browns play the 2-2 Vikings Sunday in London.<\/p>\n
The Texans are sticking with second-round rookie Aireontae Ersery as their left tackle, so Robinson was expendable. Robinson started the season opener for Houston and played as a backup in two other games. The Browns are responsible for the remaining $2 million in base salary from the deal Robinson he had with the Texans.<\/p>\n
