The Cleveland Browns organization received some interesting news on Wednesday when it was announced that their linebacker Mychal Kendricks was being charged with insider trading.
Instead of seeing what punishment these charges may bring for Kendricks, the organization decided to release the linebacker hours after the announcement was made.
Entering the season with one of the best linebacker corps in the league, this news was a big hit to the team’s talented defense.
The Browns having good linebacker depth makes Kendricks’ release hurt less, but Kendricks on the field for the Browns in 2018 would have taken the defense to the next level.
