Browns sign CB Poteat

CLEVELAND (Ticker) -- The Cleveland Browns signed cornerback Hank Poteat on Monday.

The eight-year veteran has spent parts of the last three campaigns with the New York Jets and notched 41 tackles and two interceptions last season.

"Hank is a veteran corner who has played inside and outside," Browns general manager George Kokinis said. "His versatility and knowledge of the system will be an asset to our secondary."

Poteat began his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers and has also had stints with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New England Patriots. Over his career, the 31-year-old has played in 94 regular season games - 18 starts - and recorded four interceptions and two forced fumbles.
