The Cleveland Browns waived offensive tackle KT Leveston on Saturday as the team reduced its roster to the mandatory 53-player limit. The move follows an offseason focused on overhauling the team’s offensive line. Leveston joined the organization last August in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams for a 2028 seventh-round draft pick. He appeared in 16 games for the Browns during his tenure, including seven starts at right tackle after Jack Conklin was placed on injured reserve in December. The decision comes after Cleveland acquired Tytus Howard, leaving Leveston’s status on the depth chart unclear. The team continues to manage roster adjustments across the board ahead of the upcoming NFL season.
