The Cleveland Browns have signed 27-year old CB Roderick Hood to a 1-year contract.   Hood played in 15 games for the Cardinals last season and he made 40 tackles, defensed 14 passes, forced 1 fumble and he had 1 interception.  Hood will likely serve as the nickel back for the Browns this season but he has potential to step into the starting lineup if needed.  Hood has played in 87 games in his NFL career and he has made 218 tackles, defensed 63 passes, had 1 sack, forced 2 fumbles and he has intercepted 11 passes (two returned for TDs).  This was a good move for the Browns as they need all the help they can get in the secondary.
