Rubin, 28 in July, is entering the final year of a four-year, $27.6 million contract and carries an $8.175 million cap number. The Browns are already flush with cap space but are cleaning house. They can save $6.8 million against the cap by releasing Rubin, who started 14 games at left end last season and registered 52 tackles and two sacks. He had one of his better seasons under Rob Ryan in 2009. Ryan's now with the Saints, and they could use defensive line help.
