Diles was signed by the Browns on Tuesday, the Akron Beacon Journal's Nate Ulrich reports.

He was with the Browns during training camp, and played one game with the Texans earlier in the season. He should offer Cleveland added depth at linebacker with Karlos Dansby and Jabaal Sheard out.

Diles was released by the Texans on Tuesday.

Diles appeared in just one game for the Texans after being signed in late October, and he has appeared in just three games in all over the last two seasons.

Diles agreed to a contract with the Texans on Tuesday, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Diles will take the roster spot of Elbert Mack. He figures to slot in as a reserve linebacker and special teams player with his new club.

Browns agreed to terms with LB Zac Diles.

Diles participated in this week's voluntary workouts on a tryout basis, and earned a spot on the Browns' 90-man roster. A 2007 seventh-rounder, Diles has appeared in only eight games over the past two seasons. Two of those came with the Titans in 2013. He'll be a long-shot to crack the 53-man roster.

Titans waived LB Zac Diles and S Shann Schillinger.

Neither player was contributing outside of special teams. The Titans are churning the roster to clear spots for FB Quinn Johnson and Visanthe Shiancoe.

Titans signed LB Zac Diles.

Diles spent the summer with the Chiefs before being apart of final cuts. The 28-year-old spent last season with the Titans, making 11 tackles in six games. Diles will contribute on special teams if active on game days.

Chiefs released ILB Zac Diles.

Diles, 28, lost out to Akeem Jordan for the starting job next to Derrick Johnson, which therefore made him expendable. He's on his last legs in the NFL.

Chiefs signed LB Zac Diles, formerly of the Titans, to a one-year contract.

Diles, 28 in June, spent his first four years with the Texans, but he has bounced around since. He's been with the Rams, Bucs, Colts, and Titans over the last two seasons. Diles made 11 tackles for Tennessee before breaking his leg in Week 7 last season. He'll try to earn a backup inside linebacker spot.

Titans MLB Zac Diles (broken leg) and LB Patrick Bailey (broken ankle) are both likely out for the season after going down in Week 7.

Bailey is a core special teamer. Diles had taken over as Tennessee's starting middle linebacker during Colin McCarthy's recovery from a recurring high ankle sprain. McCarthy is expected to return in Week 8 against the Colts, so the Titans shouldn't feel Diles' loss other than from a depth perspective.

Titans MLB Zac Diles was carted off in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Bills with an ankle injury.

Diles tried to tackle C.J. Spiller in the open field and got his ankle shook. The Titans are really thin at linebacker now with Colin McCarthy (ankle) inactive.

Titans signed LB Zac Diles.

Diles worked out for the Titans back in February. A 30-game starter for the Texans from 2008-2010, the injury-plagued Diles appeared in just four games as a special teamer with the Colts last year. He's purely a backup at this point in his career.

The Titans worked out free agent LB Zac Diles and NT Lamar Divens on Friday.

Diles was waived by the Colts this week and appeared in four games on special teams with the Buccaneers this past season. Divens, 26, failed his physical with the Ravens during training camp and hasn't played in the NFL since 2010.

Colts waived LB Zac Diles, OG Jaimie Thomas, and OT James Williams.

Diles, a former starter in Houston, was claimed off waivers from the Bucs in early December, recording two tackles in four games as a special teamer. Thomas battled back injuries on top of a four-game suspension last season.

Colts claimed LB Zac Diles off waivers from the Bucs.

Diles played in a similar scheme with Tampa Bay and will add special teams value in Indianapolis. He has experience at all three linebacker positions.

Bucs waived LB Zac Diles.

Diles made 30 starts for the Texans between 2007 and 2010, but had been active for just seven games this season, making one tackle. Diles went through training camp with the Rams, but was cut in favor of Ben Leber, who was also waived today. Known as a run defender, it doesn't bode well for Diles' future that he was cut by a team with such a poor run defense. Still only 26, however, he has time to revive his career.

Bucs signed LB Zac Diles, formerly of the Rams.

A 30-game starter for the Texans from 2007-2010, Diles recorded a career-high 82 tackles last season. He's reunited with HC Raheem Morris, who was defensive coordinator for Kansas State in 2006. Diles will play a reserve role in Tampa.

Rams released LB Zac Diles.

Diles was signed in July with the intention of being the Rams' starting weak-side linebacker, but apparently got outplayed by fellow free agent signing Ben Leber. Diles spent the previous four seasons in Houston, racking up 223 tackles, one sack and one interception. A physical run defender, he should be able to latch on somewhere else.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch confirms that Zac Diles is expected to be the Rams' starting weak-side linebacker.

Diles played all three linebacker spots in Houston, but the Post-Dispatch notes that he was at his best when able to focus on one position. The Rams will count on Diles to upgrade their run defense. He has a reputation for physicality.

Rams agreed to terms with OLB Zac Diles on a one-year contract.

Diles has experience at all three linebacker positions, but he figures to slot in at one of the outside spots in St. Louis. A favorite of NFL Films guru Greg Cosell's, Diles is coming off probably his worst season as a pro, mostly due to injuries. He's still just 26, however, and should be plenty motivated on this one-year, "prove-it" deal. Cosell has described Diles as a "stacked" 4-3 linebacker "with toughness" who is "consistently around the ball."

The Rams are reportedly showing interest in free agent OLB Zac Diles.

The Seahawks and Bears are also "in the mix." Diles was awful last year, at least in part because of bouts with dizziness and heart palpitations down the stretch. None of the above teams should consider paying him starter-caliber money.
