The NFL waiver wire has come and gone after all of the cutdowns for the Cleveland Browns and the other 31 teams, and now they begin filling out their practice squads.
For the Browns, they were not rewarded anybody on the waiver wire, but none of the players they cut were claimed by another team either. This should make their practice squad acquisitions pretty straightforward as a ton of familiar faces will be heading back to Berea. They are not done tinkering with their 53-man roster either, as they are still looking to trade a backup quarterback not named Jameis Winston.
They have already added a few players to their practice squad and they have quite a few moves to go. Let’s track every move the Browns make as they look to fill out their practice squad:
