Cleveland Browns can’t continue to mess around with Joe Schobert situation

The Cleveland Browns do not seem too keen on offering Joe Schobert a contract extension, and it is a situation they shouldn’t continue to mess around with.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Joe Schobert has been a dominating presence on Cleveland’s defense in 2019 and one of the best players on the entire team this season. As he continues to play well, his price tag for his next contract continues to go up as well.

Schobert is playing on the final year of his rookie deal and is due for a significant pay raise after playing as one of the best linebackers in the NFL the past three seasons. He has always excelled in coverage, but he has greatly improved his tackling in 2019.

In 13 games this season, Schobert has made 110 total tackles, six tackles for loss, two sacks, two forced fumbles, four interceptions, and nine passes defensed. Schobert has the ninth most tackles and fourth most interceptions in the NFL this season.
