Carrington also had a visit with the Raiders before meeting with the Browns, but left without a contract (obviously). The St. Louis Rams are also reportedly interested in him, but no meeting has been scheduled as of this writing.

Rams remain interested in DT Alex Carrington, but he has yet to visit.

The Browns seem like the most likely suitor for Carrington, due to his relationship with newly hired Coach Mike Pettine. Pettine was the defensive coordinator in Buffalo last year. Obviously Pettine saw enough in Carrington to name him starter, and Carrington is very familiar with Pettine’s defensive philosophy. While Carrington was reported to have passed the physical in Pittsburgh, Bob Labriola says that he has not completely recovered from his quadriceps injury.
