The Browns are waiving Damon Sheehy-Guiseppi, the undrafted WR who talked his way into a tryout and slept outside a 24-hour gym before it. Shoutout to Damon for chasing his dream u270a @brgridiron https://t.co/QmGc5RUcQL

Sheehy-Guiseppi lied about knowing vice president of player personnel Alonzo Highsmith to get himself into an invite-only tryout this offseason, per Scott Patsko of Cleveland.com. He apparently did enough to earn a trip to training camp but wasn't able to secure a spot on the 53-man roster.
