The Cleveland Browns announced Monday that they’ve released four players including CB T.J. Carrie, TE Demetrius Harris, G Eric Kush and LB Adarius Taylor.
All four of these players were signed by former GM John Dorsey.
In total, the Browns will clear close to $13.35 million of cap space for the 2020 season.
Carrie, 29, is a former seventh-round pick of the Raiders back in 2014. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,286,964 contract with the Raiders before eventually agreeing to a four-year, $31 million contract with the Browns that included $10 million guaranteed.
Carrie was set to make a base salary of $6,750,000 for the 2020 season.
According to OverTheCap.com, releasing Carrie will free up $6.35 million of available cap space while creating $1.8 million in dead money.
In 2019, Carrie appeared in all 16 games for the Browns and recorded 52 tackles, one sack, an interception, a forced fumble, a recovery and four pass defenses.
Harris, 28, wound up signing on with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out of UW-Milwaukee back in 2014. He signed a three-year, $6.3 million contract with the Chiefs back in 2016.
Harris later signed a two-year contract with the Browns last March.
In 2019, Harris appeared in 15 games for the Browns and caught 15 passes for 149 yards receiving and three touchdowns.
