The Browns added another wide receiver to the roster on Wednesday. Former Cincinnati Bengals starter Damion Willis was assigned to the Browns via a waiver claim.
Willis was a surprise cut by the Bengals this week. He started Cincinnati’s first two games of 2019 as an undrafted rookie from Troy. In 10 total games, Willis caught nine passes for 82 yards. He did not play in either game between the Browns and Bengals a year ago.
Due to a technicality, Willis is not yet officially on the Browns roster. He won’t count against the roster limit until he is cleared after undergoing COVID-19 testing. Because of that, the Browns do not yet have to make a move to open a roster spot for Willis.
