The Cleveland Browns re-signed kicker Cody Parkey for the 2021 season, one of a series of moves announced on Friday.
The Browns also confirmed they had re-signed wide receivers Rashard Higgins and JoJo Natson and linebacker Elijah Lee to one-year deals. Cleveland also agreed to terms with former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Greg Senat.
In addition, agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN that former Indianapolis Colts middle linebacker Anthony Walker is joining the Browns on a one-year, $3.5 million deal.
Parkey, 29, made 19 of 22 field-goal attempts and 43 of 47 extra-point tries in 15 games with the Browns in 2020. He also booted 55.6 percent of his kickoffs for touchbacks.
A Pro Bowl selection as a 2014 rookie with the Philadelphia Eagles, Parkey also played for Cleveland in 2016 and had stints with the Miami Dolphins (2017), Chicago Bears (2018) and Tennessee Titans (2019).
He has converted 84.6 percent of his field goals (121 of 143) and 94.3 percent of his PATs (197 of 209) through 83 career games. He has drilled 8 of 10 attempts from 50-plus yards, with a long of 54 in 2017.
Walker, 25, collected 92 tackles and one interception in 16 starts for the Colts last season. The 2017 fifth-rounder played in 57 games (48 starts) for Indy and posted 343 tackles, 3.5 sacks, three picks and two fumble recoveries.
Higgins, 26, has 113 catches for 1,615 yards and 11 touchdowns in 67 games (12 starts) since Cleveland drafted him in the fifth round in 2016. He caught 37 passes for a career-high 599 yards and four scores in 2020.
Natson, 27, returned three punts and one kickoff and rushed once for 3 yards in his first season with the Browns in 2020. He has played in 35 games with the New York Jets (2017), Los Angeles Rams (2018-19) and Cleveland.
Lee, 25, was claimed off waivers from the Detroit Lions last season and tallied six tackles in eight games with the Browns. He has 84 tackles in 50 games (six starts) with the San Francisco 49ers (2017-19), Lions and Browns.
Senat, 26, made his NFL debut and appeared in 10 games with the Cowboys in 2020, mostly on special teams. He was a sixth-round pick of the Baltimore Ravens in 2018.
