Report: Dalvin Tomlinson leaving Vikings for Browns
Minnesota’s goal of re-signing defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson has failed after the veteran run-stuffer reportedly agreed to terms with the Cleveland Browns.
According to reports, Tomlinson will sign with the Browns for $57 million over four years, including $27.5 million guaranteed.
Sources: The #Browns are expected to sign former #Vikings DT Dalvin Tomlinson, landing their coveted big-time defenders on Day 1 of free agency. He gets a 4-year deal worth $57M with $27.5M guaranteed.

The Vikings pushed back the void date on Tomlinson’s deal a month with hopes of agreeing to a new deal with him, but that didn’t pan out and Minnesota is now down a fourth defensive starter from a season ago.
Linebacker Eric Kendrick’s says he’s going to the Chargers, while Patrick Peterson is on his way to the Steelers and Cam Dantzler is off to the Commanders.
