Browns Waive DE Cam Johnson & DB Ed Reynolds

The Cleveland Browns announced Tuesday that they’ve placed DE Cam Johnson and DB Ed Reynolds on waivers.

  • Reynolds was waived with an injury designation, which means he would revert to their injured reserve list if he clears waivers on Wednesday.

Johnson, 27, is a former seventh-round pick of the 49ers back in 2012. However, he was traded to the Colts a year later in return for WR Geoff Swain.

The Colts cut Johnson loose coming out of the preseason in 2015 and he later signed on to the Browns’ practice squad. Unfortunately, he was once again cut loose coming out of the preseason but managed to sign on to the Cardinals’ practice squad during the 2016 season.

The Browns signed him off of the Cardinals’ practice squad last October.

In 2016, Johnson appeared in 12 games for the Browns and recorded 32 tackles, three sacks, two forced fumbles and a pass defense. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 55 edge rusher out of 110 qualifying players.
