The Cleveland Browns knew they were going to be shorthanded entering their final game with the Pittsburgh Steelers and the moves they made on Saturday only confirm that fact. The Browns promoted offensive tackle Alex Taylor and offensive guard Cordell Iwuagwu as well as linebacker Montreal Meander from the practice squad, activated safety Karl Joseph from the Reserve/COVID list and signed offensive lineman Blake Hance from the New York Jets practice squad.
Hance is a former offensive tackle out of Northwestern that has transitioned to guard in the NFL. He was an undrafted free agent after the 2019 NFL Draft. His athleticism is pretty ordinary, but he is quite tall at 6 5 5/8 . As he is a signing from a team s practice squad, the Browns will have to keep him on the active roster for at least three weeks. In other words, the Browns would need to make the AFC Championship before they could waive him.
