Josina Anderson reports that the Cleveland Browns are expected to cut QB Josh Rosen and RB John Kelly, among others, with some expected to be brought back on the practice squad.
Rosen, 25, is a former first-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2018. Arizona traded him to the Dolphins for a second-round pick after just a year during the 2019 NFL Draft.
Rosen was entering the third year of his four-year, $17,664,284 contract and set to make base salaries of $660,000 and $750,000 over the next two years of the agreement. The contract included a fifth-year option for the Dolphins to pick up in 2021. However, the Dolphins waived him coming out of camp.
Rosen went unclaimed on waivers and later signed on to the Buccaneers’ practice squad. San Francisco signed him off Tampa Bay’s practice squad late in the season and brought him back on a one-year deal last February. He was waived during camp and signed by the Falcons before catching on with the Browns this offseason.
In 2021, Rosen appeared in four games for the Falcons and completed two of 11 passes for 19 yards and two interceptions.
