Browns are without embattled former Chiefs WR after epic mistake in Week 14

Browns are without embattled former Chiefs WR after epic mistake in Week 14

The Cleveland Browns are releasing former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney, according to a report from NFL insider Adam Schefter.

The Browns initially signed Toney to their practice squad on September 9th after he was released by the Chiefs on August 27th. Toney was named to Cleveland’s active roster in Week 14, but failed to make a positive impression in his Browns debut.

In Kansas City, Toney is best known for his legendary punt return in Super Bowl LVII, which helped the Chiefs win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

On Sunday, Toney thwarted a punt in Cleveland’s loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, which may have contributed to the Browns’ decision to waive him.

The former Florida Gator struggled with falls during his tenure in Kansas City, but is an extremely talented wideout with all the physical skills scouts look for in elite playmakers.

Stay tuned to see if general manager Brett Veach decides to put Toney in the hoops later this season if the Chiefs need another pass-catcher due to injuries.
