Former Cleveland Browns players miss NFL roster cuts this past week
Summary

Following the league-wide deadline for 53-man rosters, a significant number of players with past ties to the Cleveland Browns were released by their respective teams. Notable names among those cut include offensive tackle Jedrick Wills, along with several quarterbacks and skill-position players. While some athletes, such as Nick Mullens, Bailey Zappe, and Pharaoh Brown, successfully secured spots on practice squads, others remain without a designated team. The roster turnover also affected current training camp participants, as Kingsley Eguakun, Cedric Tillman, and Davon Booth signed with the Giants, Saints, and Colts practice squads respectively. The high volume of former Browns players released highlights the transient nature of NFL roster spots for many professionals who move between organizations during the preseason training period.
