Browns bring OT Alex Taylor back for a visit

Taylor was waived from the Browns injured reserve in September

There was a familiar face in Berea on Wednesday making a visit with the Cleveland Browns. Offensive tackle Alex Taylor was back and meeting with the team, per the NFL’s transaction wire.

Taylor has been a free agent since the Browns parted ways with him earlier this season.

Perhaps the most prominent of the Browns’ undrafted rookie class of 2020, the South Carolina State standout offers outstanding length and the movement skills of a former college basketball player. Taylor had issues with functional strength for playing in the NFL and was considered a more long-term developmental prospect.

He was waived off injured reserve on the day of Week 2 game with this week’s foe, the Cincinnati Bengals. Taylor has been free to sign with any other team but has yet to latch on. The Browns do have an opening for a project OT on the practice squad after the Dallas Cowboys signed away Greg Senat recently.
