Juan Thornhill has been out since after Week 1’s loss

The ever-changing Cleveland Browns roster is likely to continue to see movement. GM Andrew Berry is not only always churning the bottom of the roster but, as seen on Tuesday, also the practice squad as well.

Obviously, the Amari Cooper trade dominated Browns news and could be the start of more deals.

Cleveland’s roster is also due for a few more changes due to injuries. RB Nick Chubb’s letter to the fans and the City of Cleveland in advance of his return from PUP will likely include RB Nyheim Hines also coming back.

Wednesday, S Juan Thornhill was designated by the Browns from the Injured Reserve list as well. Thornhill was injured in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys due to a calf injury.

Cleveland signed Thornhill in the 2023 offseason coming off a Super Bowl championship with the Kansas City Chiefs. Last year, the starting safety played 11 games in his first year with the Browns.

Cleveland now has three weeks to activate Thornhill from IR or the safety will be out for the season.
