Za'Darius Smith worked out for Browns on Thursday

Veteran pass rusher Za'Darius Smith worked out for the Cleveland Browns on Thursday. The workout suggests the Browns are exploring adding experienced help to their defensive front.

Smith has been a productive edge rusher throughout his career and would give Cleveland a proven option off the edge if signed. A workout does not guarantee a deal, but it signals mutual interest between the two sides.

For the Browns, bringing in a player of Smith's caliber would add depth and pass-rushing ability to the defense. Whether the workout leads to a contract remains to be seen as the team evaluates its options.
