2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hickman, an undrafted free agent in 2023, saw an increase in snaps during his second NFL season and led Cleveland's secondary with a 71.3 coverage grade as a second-teamer behind Grant Delpit and Juan Thornhill. After the Browns let Thornhill go and Rodney McLeod retired, Hickman is in line to start at free safety alongside Delpit. He recorded 45 tackles, one pass defensed and a fumble recovery over 14 games in 2024. The Browns also brought in some experience in Damontae Kazee, who could challenge Hickman. Read Past Outlooks
Shines as starting safety
Hickman logged a career-high 103 tackles (51 solo) and two interceptions (seven total passes defensed) over 17 regular-season games in 2025.
ANALYSIS
Hickman played 98.5 percent of the defensive snaps in his first season as a starter in the NFL. Pro Football Focus graded him at 75.3 in coverage and 71.6 overall, topping all members of Cleveland's secondary. Hickman, who was an undrafted free agent in 2023, enters the offseason as a restricted free agent. Because Hickman entered the league as an undrafted free agent, the Browns would not be eligible for compensation if the safety is tendered and then signs with another team.
