Cleveland Browns bring in Khalil Davis and 4 others for tryouts

The Cleveland Browns continue to look to churn the bottom of their roster, bringing in five for a tryout.

According to the NFL’s Personnel Notice sent out today, Friday 9/16, the Cleveland Browns brought in five players for tryouts. Defensive tackle Khalil Davis is among the most popular of the names, as he was a sixth round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The four other names brought in were former Florida and undrafted free agent Jean Delance, former Morgan State offensive tackle Tyrone Wheatley, defensive end Nick Thurman out of Houston, and former Stony Brook linebacker Sam Kamara.

The defensive linemen named could have a direct correlation to the discipline Perrion Winfrey is facing from the team as Roderick Perry has been activated from the Practice Squad for this game against the Jets to sit in for the fourth rounder.

As of now, none of these players have received contract offers to either the active roster nor the practice squad. Keep an eye on these names in the coming days.

Patriots activate C David Andrews, elevate 2 reserves ahead of 49ers contest

The Patriots desperately needed David Andrews back on the field.

The New England Patriots made a series of roster moves on Saturday, including the activation of starting center David Andrews.

Andrews was placed on the injured reserve list with a hand injury prior to Week 3 and had to stay on the list for a minimum of three weeks. His presence is much-needed after a complete mess on the offensive line in Week 7 agains the Denver Broncos.

New England elevated outside linebacker Tashawn Bower and defensive lineman Nick Thurman to the 53-man roster from the practice squad. Bower will make his Patriots debut, as he replaces Derek Rivers, who will miss the Week 7 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers with a back injury. Thurman has been active the last three games and will serve as depth along the defensive line.

Rookie linebacker Josh Uche returned to practice this week, but remains on the injured reserve list for at least another game.
