Kamara is slated to re-sign with the Browns, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old from Stony Brook is now in line to remain in Cleveland after spending his last four seasons with the team. Kamara has played in just 15 regular-season games over the last two seasons, recording 21 total tackles across 358 defensive snaps. He's expected to remain a depth piece on the Browns' defensive line during the 2026 season.

The Browns did not tender Kamara on Monday, making the Stony Brook product an unrestricted free agent, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara would have been a restricted free agent had the Browns placed a tender on him, but he'll now have the opportunity to sign with a team without the offer being matched by Cleveland. Kamara spent the majority of the 2025 season on the Browns' practice squad before signing to the team's active roster in early December, finishing with six tackles (three solo) across four games. He'll look to join a team in need of defensive line depth.

Kamara was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara has missed the Browns' last two games with an elbow injury. He should return to a rotational role along Cleveland's defensive line in Week 18 against the Bengals.

Kamara (elbow) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara missed the Browns' Week 16 loss to the Bills due to an elbow injury and will now miss consecutive games with the issue. The rotational defensive tackle's snap share will likely be transferred to fellow tackle Mike Hall. Adin Huntington may also see an increased defensive snap share in Kamara's absence.

Kamara (elbow) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Steelers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara was limited in practice all week due to an elbow injury that prevented him from playing against the Bills in Week 16. If he's unable to play Sunday, then Mike Hall and Adin Huntington would see more rotational snaps on the defensive line behind Shelby Harris and Mason Graham.

Kamara (elbow) was a limited participant in Cleveland's practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara missed the Week 16 loss to the Bills due to an elbow injury but is seemingly trending toward making his return. The 28-year-old has recorded just 15 tackles (10 solo) across 11 games this season and will likely continue to see limited action should he manage to play in Sunday's matchup versus the Bengals.

Kamara (elbow) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara was a limited practice participant during Week 16 prep due to an elbow injury, which is severe enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Mike Hall (illness) is also inactive, so the Browns will lean on Adin Huntington, Keith Cooper and Maurice Hurst to serve as the rotational defensive tackles behind Shelby Harris and Mason Graham. Kamara's next opportunity to play is Week 17 against the Steelers on Sunday, Dec. 28.

Kamara (elbow) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old opened the Browns' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions, and it appears he has a chance to suit up Sunday. If Kamara is sidelined in Week 16, Mike Hall (illness, questionable) and Adin Huntington (quadriceps, questionable) could serve as the Browns' top reserve interior defensive linemen.

Kamara was signed to the Browns active roster Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kamara, who had been on the team's practice squad, replaces defensive tackle Maliek Collins (quad). The latter was placed on injured reserve Tuesday and will miss the remainder of the season. Kamara is in his fourth season with the Cleveland organization and had a career-high 15 tackles in 2024.

Kamara accumulated 15 total tackles over 11 games in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
The fourth-year pro from Stony Brook had the most productive season of his career in 2024, setting new career highs in total tackles, games played and defensive snaps (262). His lone start came in Cleveland's Week 18 loss to the Ravens, when he recorded six total tackles while playing 87 percent of the team's defensive snaps. Kamara, who's under contract through the 2025 season, is expected to remain one of the Browns' top reserve defensive linemen next year.
