The Browns are adding to their tight end room. Not only that, they're adding a familiar face for quarterback Deshaun Watson, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Tight end Jordan Akins is signing a two-year deal with the Browns, his agent David Canter announced on Twitter Friday afternoon. Akins had been on a visit with the team throughout the day, according to a league source.

The deal is worth $5.2 million. That includes incentives and signing bonus.

Akins has spent the first five seasons of his NFL career playing for the Houston Texans, including his first three seasons playing with Watson. The former third-round pick of the 2018 draft out of Central Florida has played in 73 career games, with 26 starts under his belt.
