Grimes started 28 games for the Falcons from 2010-11, but he started only one game last year. He missed a majority of the season due to a torn Achilles’ tendon.

The Browns are hoping to pair Grimes with Joe Haden, as they don’t appear interested in re-signing free agent Sheldon Brown. Cleveland has already added to its defense via free agency this offseason, signing pass rusher Paul Kruger and interior lineman Desmond Bryant.

Despite coming off a significant injury, Grimes is considered to be one of the top cornerbacks on the free agent market. Beyond the Browns, the Miami Dolphins also recently hosted Grimes, while some rumors continue to connect the cornerback to the Falcons.
