Cleveland put an emphasis on once again helping to shore up the supporting cast for quarterback Baker Mayfield by adding tight end Austin Hooper and offensive tackle Jack Conklin in free agency. Hooper arrives as a potential safety net for Mayfield in the passing game while Conklin's presence gives them a stable option at the tackle spot.
