He was set to become a free agent when the new league year began in 2026, so Andrew Berry and the rest of the Browns organization wanted to make sure that they could get him locked up before the 2025 season ended.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">He\u2019s totaled 24 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, 1 forced fumble, and has an overall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pff.com\/nfl\/players\/alex-wright\/98318\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PFF grade of 88.7<\/a> so far in 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Wright continues to be an X-factor for the Browns on defense, and he\u2019s been one of the team\u2019s top run-defenders for a while now. He has an above-average size\/athleticism combination, and he\u2019s been improving each season in the technical department.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">He\u2019s worth every penny of the extension, and his future in Cleveland looks to be incredibly bright.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">What do you think of Alex Wright\u2019s extension?
