53-man roster prediction after Jordan Elliott and Harrison Bryant rework deals
The Cleveland Browns reworked the contracts of two of their 2020 draft class alumni. Both tight end Harrison Bryant and defensive tackle Jordan Elliott upped their guaranteed money while lowering their base salary (with more incentives involved as well), all but guaranteeing their roster spot on the final 53-man roster.
How does this impact the roster elsewhere? It guarantees the Browns will roster three tight ends, and leaves one less defensive tackle position for the likes of Perrion Winfrey, Maurice Hurst, and Trysten Hill to fight over.
Here is a final 53-man roster prediction after Bryant and Elliott look to have locked themselves into their spot.
