The Cleveland Browns have signed free agent tight end Alex Smith, who started five games for Philadelphia last season.

Smith has made 132 catches for 1,277 yards and 11 touchdowns in five years in the NFL. He had three receptions for 25 yards last season for the Eagles.

A third-round draft pick in 2005 by Tampa Bay, Smith led all rookie tight ends with 41 catches for 367 yards and two TDs.

He was traded to New England in 2009 and released by the Patriots last September before signing with the Eagles.

The Browns also waived wide receiver Aaron Valentin and tight end Troy Wagner, two undrafted rookies.
