Browns Just Made A Batch of Roster Moves and One Position Group Deserves More Attention

The Cleveland Browns, 5-3 and preparing for a Week 9 road trip against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, made several practice-squad roster moves in the past few days. Cleveland signed guard Austin Blaske and tackle Xavier Truss to the practice squad, and released tackle Andrew Coker and guard Vershon Lee from it. While these changes don’t affect the active roster, they come as the Browns lead the league in sacks allowed, permitting 33 so far—far ahead of the next group at 23. With the running game still struggling and starters on the line not yet fully settled, the signings signal Cleveland is testing depth options, especially as key players work through availability and lineup needs.
