Cleveland claimed running back Raheem "Rocket" Sanders from the Los Angeles Chargers and defensive back Jarrick Bernard-Converse from the New York Jets as their claims.
Sanders played three years at Arkansas before transferring last season to South Carolina, where he rushed for 881 yards and eleven touchdowns for the Gamecocks.
Sanders signed with the Chargers as an undrafted free agent and rushed for over one hundred yards and two touchdowns.
Some Chargers observers expected Sanders to make the team over 2024 draftee Kimani Vidal, but he was surprisingly among the final cuts.
At six feet, two hundred thirty pounds, Sanders runs between the tackles but has enough speed to run outside as well.
The Browns could have a sleeper in Sanders.
Jarrick Bernard-Converse is a defensive back from LSU who was the Jets' sixth-round draft pick in 2023.
Bernard-Converse played in fifteen games over two seasons with the Jets, with almost all of his game time coming on special teams, which is his likely role with the Browns, who cut Tony Brown and Nik Needham, both of whom were expected as part of the special team unit, so there is a fit for Bernard-Converse.
