Browns cut two players, place three on injured reserve to get to 80

On Monday, the Cleveland Browns reduced their roster from 85 to 80 players. Every team in the league is required to get down to 80 players by Tuesday at 4:00 PM ET.

Placed on reserve/injured:

  • Tight end Connor Davis (shoulder)
  • Linebacker Montrel Meander (Achilles)
  • Kicker Cody Parkey (quad)

Waived:

  • Wide receiver Alexander Hollins
  • *Offensive tackle Alex Taylor (ankle)

*injury designation

The biggest hit is losing Parkey, who while having the occasional issue, still connected on 19-of-22 field goals in 15 regular-season games and didn’t miss on three postseason field goal attempts in 2020.
