The Cleveland Browns make a roster move. While it is to their practice squad, The OBR’s Brad Stainbrook is reporting that running back Jordan Wilkins is heading back to Cleveland. Wilkins, of course, was on the roster during training camp, and even got a starting opportunity in the final preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Wilkins fumbled twice in that game and was eventually cut from the roster as the Browns outsourced their third running back job by acquiring Pierre Strong Jr. from the New England Patriots. The Browns had a vacancy on their practice squad after signing fellow running back Deon Jackson to the active roster just to release him just a few days later.
Do not expect this to be the only roster move the Browns make this week as the NFL trade deadline nears, and as they work through a handful of injuries to key players.
