Cleveland Browns offer former Dolphins linebacker Channing Tindall a chance to prove himself
Former Dolphins Top Pick Explores New Opportunities
After three seasons with the Miami Dolphins, linebacker Channing Tindall finds himself on the hunt for a new opportunity. The 2022 third-round draft selection is looking to make his mark in the NFL once again, and the Cleveland Browns have opened the door for him.
On Friday, Tindall was among ten players who participated in a workout with the Browns, a list that included rookie undrafted free agent Kam Arnold and Amari Gainer, who played 17 games for the Las Vegas Raiders last season. This opportunity arrives at a pivotal moment in Tindall’s career.
Tindall’s Career with the Dolphins
During his time in Miami, Tindall recorded five tackles over the course of 11 games in the 2024 season. Despite being drafted with high expectations, he found himself buried on the depth chart, sitting behind established players such as Jordyn Brooks, David Long Jr., Duke Riley, and Anthony Walker Jr.
Primarily utilized on special teams, Tindall’s opportunities on defense were limited, resulting in no defensive snaps throughout the season. Ultimately, the Dolphins decided to part ways with him during the initial 53-man roster cuts, leaving him in search of a new team to showcase his skills.
A Fresh Start with the Browns
The Browns’ interest in Tindall presents a crucial chance for him to revive his NFL career. With the team looking to bolster their linebacker corps, Tindall will aim to leverage this opportunity to demonstrate his potential and secure a roster spot.
As Tindall prepares to compete for a position with Cleveland, he will need to prove that he can contribute both on defense and special teams. With a fresh start in a new environment, he has the chance to redefine his role in the league and make a lasting impact.
