The Cleveland Browns parted ways with several players on Sunday afternoon, one of which was former Alabama tight end Miller Forristall.
In the NFL, teams must trim their roster from 90 to 53 by August 29 at 4 p.m. ET.
This is not the first time that the Browns have waived Forristall. In 2021, he was waived and re-signed to the practice squad four days later. In 2022, Forristall was waived and re-signed to the practice squad.
Following a two-year stint with the Browns, Forristall signed a reserve/future contract with the New Orleans Saints in January 2023. After six months with the team, he was waived.
Soon after, the Browns brought Forristall back for a second stint. After less than a month, Forristall has hit the waiver wire again.
Meaning, other NFL teams will have the opportunity to claim Forristall. If no team claims Forristall, he will become an unrestricted free agent.
After performing well during the preseason, the likelihood of a team signing Forristall to their practice squad is relatively strong. Forristall recorded eight catches for 89 receiving yards during the preseason.
Browns placed WR Jakeem Grant Sr. on injured reserve and waived CB Caleb Biggers, LB Cam Bright, TE Miller Forristall, TE Thomas Greaney, CB Gavin Heslop, T Derrick Kelly II, S Nate Meadors, WR Anthony Schwartz (injury designation), WR Jalen Wayne. Browns also released G Colby…
