Long list of former Browns who didn’t make final rosters this past week
Which players have been able to hang around over the years?
During the NFL's initial 53-man roster announcements this past week, a notable number of former Cleveland Browns were cut from their respective teams. Among them was offensive tackle Jedrick Wills, who was making a comeback attempt in the league. Upon examining the list of players who did not survive this year's camp across the NFL, it becomes apparent that many former Browns only have one or two opportunities in the league before being cut. This could very well apply to players like Luke Floriea, whose future in the NFL remains uncertain.
It is worth noting that some of these players were able to secure spots on another team's practice squad. Quarterbacks Nick Mullens, Bailey Zappe, and Josh Johnson, along with running backs Pierre Strong and D’Ernest Johnson, wide receiver Kaden Davis (marked with an asterisk), wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge, tight ends Zaire Mitchell-Paden, Pharaoh Brown, and Mitchell Van Vooren, offensive tackle Jedrick Wills, offensive guard Blake Hance, and defensive tackle Roy Mbaeteka were among those who made it to practice squads.
Defensive tackle Maurice Hurst, defensive end Ben Stille, defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo, linebacker Mohamoud Diabate, cornerback Tavierre Thomas, cornerback Kahlef Hailassie, cornerback A.J. Green, and safety D’Anthony Bell also made the practice squad cut.
Interestingly, three Browns players from this year's training camp were signed to another team's practice squad: Kingsley Eguakun (Giants), Cedric Tillman (Saints), and Davon Booth (Colts). Given this information, one can't help but wonder if there are any former Browns players who might be given a second chance at some point in their careers.
