The clock is ticking for the Cleveland Browns as they prepare to reveal their initial 53-man roster by Tuesday at 4:00 PM ET. While the official announcement awaits, don’t be surprised if early cuts or insider whispers hit the news before then. The Browns have a history of surprising moves, and fans are eager to see who will make the cut.

What Happens to Released Players?

Any player cut with less than four years in the league will go through waivers, making them eligible to be claimed by other teams until Wednesday at 12:00 PM ET. After this window, unclaimed players can be signed to rosters or practice squads. Meanwhile, veterans with over four years can join new teams immediately if released.
