The Cleveland Browns are trying to improve.

They made a trade on Monday to upgrade a position of need.

The deal is between the Browns and the Houston Texans, and it's offensive tackle Cam Robinson coming to Cleveland. The Browns will also get a 2027 seventh-round pick while sending a sixth-round pick that year to Houston, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The Browns have been looking for tackle help since Dawand Jones sustained a season-ending injury, and now they hope they have it in Robinson.

Robinson originally entered the NFL as a second-round pick (No. 34 overall) by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2017 out of Alabama.

The 6-foot-6, 335-pound Robinson is now in his ninth NFL season.

He spent the first seven-and-a-half seasons with the Jags. From there, it was a 10-game stint with the Minnesota Vikings to end the 2024 season.

And Robinson came to Houston in the offseason and has played three games for the Texans.

In his career, Robinson has started 102 of the 104 games he's played in (with the only two non-starts coming this season).

He's going to turn 30 years old on Oct. 9.

Robinson likely still has some juice left in the tank, and the Browns can certainly use another offensive tackle with some talent. They've got one now.
