Veteran wide receiver's career might be over after Browns release

The Cleveland Browns, much like the other 31 teams in the NFL, are working to cut their rosters down to 53 players by the 4:00 p.m. ET deadline on Tuesday. The Browns have their quarterback situation in order, but the offense still had question marks that needed to be resolved.

On Tuesday, the Browns provided answers for their wide receiver room heading into the season opener.

According to multiple reports, the Browns released veteran Diontae Johnson from him contract. This likely means that undrafted free agent Gage Larvadain made the roster in his place.

But the reality is that Johnson struggled throughout this preseason for the Browns, and that did him no favors.
