The Cleveland Browns, even as they get ready to take on the Houston Texans in today’s Week 16 matchup, are no strangers to churning the bottom of their roster and practice squad in search of depth and fresh players. As they make a run at the playoffs, sitting at 9-5 and holding the fifth seed in the AFC, this is as important as ever.
It has been no secret that the Browns have been significantly hampered by injuries all season, but have found ways to fight through regardless. They are even seeing significant contributions from undrafted rookie safety Ronnie Hickman Jr. as all of Grant Delpit, Rodney McLeod, and Juan Thornhill have faced significant injuries this year.
That means these weekly workouts they do every week have significance to them. This week is no different, as they brought in five players hoping to earn a spot on the practice squad. Here are the five players who traveled to Berea looking for a shot this week.
DE Mathieu Betts
DT Josiah Bronson
OG Jerome Carvin
OT Vitality Gurman
OG Lewis Kidd
