The Cleveland Browns signed first-round draft pick Spencer Fano to his four-year rookie contract on Friday.

Fano, the ninth overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, will receive $32.2 million in fully guaranteed money that includes a $19.9 million signing bonus. The deal also includes a fifth-year team option for the offensive lineman.

Fano played in 37 games (36 starts) over three seasons at Utah, including time at both left and right tackle. He won the 2025 Outland Trophy, which is awarded annually to the best college interior lineman on offense or defense.

The Browns also signed Washington wide receiver Denzel Brown (second round), Florida tackle Austin Barber (third), Alabama center Parker Brailsford (fifth), Alabama linebacker Justin Jefferson (fifth), Cincinnati tight end Joe Royer (fifth), Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green (sixth) and BYU tight end Carsen Ryan (seventh).

Cleveland has yet to sign Texas A&M wideout KC Concepcion (first round) and Toledo safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren (second).
