Running back Jamal Lewis has agreed with the Cleveland Browns on a multiyear contract.
The Associated Press has learned that Lewis will officially sign once the contract language has been completed.
Lewis was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent next week. But the Browns didn't want to risk losing him after he rushed for more than 1,300 yards last season. Cleveland went 10-6 and barely missed the playoffs.
