Browns claim OL Drew Forbes back off waivers from the Lions
What’s old is new again for Drew Forbes. The offensive lineman is back in Cleveland after being claimed off waivers from the Detroit Lions.
Detroit dumped Forbes on Saturday to clear roster space for new starting left guard Dan Skipper, who was signed off the practice squad. Forbes had been a healthy scratch even while the Lions were dealing with myriad offensive line injuries.
The Lions claimed Forbes off waivers from the Browns in September. Forbes was originally a sixth-round pick by Cleveland in the 2019 NFL draft. Injuries and an opt-out season in 2020 have kept Forbes very limited in his NFL experience.
