3 Things We Learned About Andrew Berry In 2021 Offseason

That did not stop him from pursuing Clowney again in 2021, and everyone in Cleveland is happy that he succeeded this time around.

Ironically, after Berry got Clowney to the Browns, he described Clowney as being “relentless”.

The same could be said for Berry himself.

Berry said:

“We love his relentless style of play. He’s one of the more disruptive players in the game and we think he’s going to add an element of ruggedness along our defensive line and will pair nicely with many of the guys we have on the roster already. The other thing we love about Jadeveon is his versatility, his ability to play all across the front and impact the game regardless of his alignment.”

2. He Looks Everywhere For Roster Additions

We thought Berry was done with the offense; however, he surprised all of us last week by signing wide receiver Davion Davis from The Spring League.

It is unclear how many general managers are combing through The Spring League rosters on the heels of minicamp looking for more players, but we now know Berry is.

3. He Answers Questions Without Providing Much Information

Berry must be a terrific poker player.

To begin with, he never seems rattled or stressed.

He has a lot of stress managing this roster and dealing with all of the players on soon-to-expired contracts.

His wife even gave birth on the opening day of the draft; nothing makes this guy flinch.

So it should not be too surprising that he is cool and collected when answering the media’s persistent questions.

He formulates his answers in such a way that he provides only the scant amount of detail and leaves the rest unsaid.

For instance, we only heard from Nick Chubb and Denzel Ward this week that their agents had been contacted by the Browns regarding contract extensions.

Berry is not forthright with that information.

Back in March, when asked about Chubb, Berry said:

“I think you all know the affinity that we have for him both as a player and as a person. We do have a number of players who are extension-eligible, which Nick is one. And that’s something that we’ll sort through as we go through the offseason. But certainly we like Nick — the player and the person. And all those big decisions are things that we have to figure out in the overall big picture as we navigate the next several months.”

Berry’s actions speak louder than his words; this seems to be his personality and management style.

So far it has been a huge success in Cleveland.
