The Cleveland Browns had one of the NFL’s worst offenses last season but are beginning the process of repairing it by agreeing to a contract with free-agent wide receiver Kenny Britt, according to NFL.com.

Britt is coming off a career-best season with the Rams in which he caught 68 passes for 1,002 yards and five touchdowns. He played three seasons with the Rams after spending his first five years with the Titans.

It remains to be seen how the 28-year-old will fit into the team’s passing attack, given that Cleveland’s top receiver from last season, Terrelle Pryor, is a free agent and there isn’t yet a solid plan at quarterback.

Britt, though, is at least a piece who can help make last year’s 28th-ranked passing attack a bit better – or simply fill a major need if Pryor ends up signing elsewhere.
