Browns release Kenny Britt after 9 games

The Cleveland Browns have released wide receiver Kenny Britt after playing just nine games with the team in 2017.

What It Means:

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Britt will go unclaimed on waivers and will be eligible to sign with any team as a free agent. The chances of him getting picked up can't be any better than 50-50 after Britt's behavior in his time with Cleveland. Luckily, only the first year of Britt's four-year deal was guaranteed, so the Browns will only owe him the remainder of his $10.5 million this season. Going forward, Josh Gordon, Corey Coleman and Ricardo Louis will serve as Cleveland's top targets in the passing game.

Over 9 games and 4 starts, Britt tallied just 18 catches, 233 yards and 2 touchdowns on 38 total targets this season.
