Ifo Ekpre-Olomu

Age: 22

Experience: None

Contract status: Free agent 2019

The Browns drafted Ifo Ekpre-Olomu in the seventh round of the 2015 NFL Draft even though he had suffered a major ACL injury during practice for the Rose Bowl as a member of the Oregon Ducks. A consensus All-American prior to his injury, Ekpre-Olomu was projected to be selected between rounds two through four.

The Browns took a chance on the talented corner in the hopes that he will make a full recovery. Ekpre-Olomu spent the 2015 season on the Browns injured reserved. He is expected to be healthy this summer and it will be interesting how the talented player recovers and performs. If fully healthy, Ekpre-Olomu should challenge for significant playing time.
