Pryor (finger) is set to become a free agent at 4 p.m. ET on Thursday, ESPN.com reports.

The Browns opted not to place the franchise tag on Pryor, instead trying to work out a long-term deal prior to the legal tampering period. With the two sides unable to agree on terms, Pryor will have a chance to assess his value on the open market. Browns VP of football operations Sashi Brown recently said that Pryor is one of the team's offseason priorities, but also asserted the team won't be panicked if the 27-year-old wideout ends up with another team. Coming off a 1,000-yard season in his first year as a wide receiver, Pryor won't have any trouble landing a sizable multi-year deal -- be it in Cleveland or elsewhere. His broken finger should be fully healed before offseason workouts begin.
