Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney is still an unsigned free agent and there doesn't appear to be any moves soon. He played with the Cleveland Browns the past two seasons and was released by the team after the conclusion of the 2022 NFL season.
His release came after he didn't play in the Browns' final game of the season. That was due to the fact that he was unhappy with the playing time he was receiving. This week, he said that he is still looking to sign with an NFL team soon, and that just left the door wide open for NFL fans.

NFL fans were quick to judge Jadeveon Clowney's nine seasons in the National Football League. Many said that he hasn't lived up the expectations that were set for him when he was drafted in 2014. Others on both Reddit and Twitter said that he is injury prone and that his production doesn't increase when needed most by his team.
The defensive end is just 30 years old and there is likely to be a team that will sign him before or during training camp to see if and how he could help their team.
Does Jadeveon Clowney want to return to the Houston Texans?
Jadeveon Clowney may still be a free agent, but he has his eyes on one particular team. In a recent interview with FOX 26 in Houston, the defensive end said that he would be interested in a reunion with the Houston Texans.
He said that he has friends and family in the Houston area and that the team he works and trains with is also in the area. He said:
"It would be nice. All my family is here. Friends here. The guys I work out with can help me take care of my body a lot better being right up under them. ... You never know. You never know what will happen. You never know what's in front of you. I see what they've got here. They're putting the pieces together."
He also said that he would be interested in joining the rebuild that the Houston Texans are currently going through, which includes the hiring of new head coach DeMeco Ryans.
Clowney was drafted by the Houston Texans with the first overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. After five seasons, he was traded to the Seattle Seahawks. He then played with the Tennessee Titans before signing with the Browns.
