The Cleveland Browns are not showing their hand if the team is indeed interested in signing running back Dalvin Cook.
Cook was cut by the New York Jets on Tuesday, January 2. The move will allow Cook to sign with a contender.
The Browns faced the Jets on Thursday in their Week 17 matchup and Cook did not play a single snap. It was the latest display of how CookŹ»s role has been reduced with the struggling Jets.
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski was asked about the prospect of signing Cook for a playoff run but deflected it to general manager Andrew Berry.
āThatās more a question for Andrew,ā said Stefanski, who coached Cook in Minnesota.
Cook will go on waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, heāll become an unrestricted free agent.
The Browns have made some roster moves in recent days. The team brought back defensive end Sam Kamara, signing him to the practice squad. Cleveland also added guard Rodger Saffold on Wednesday, January 3.
The Browns are buckling up for a finale against the Bengals where a chunk of their key starters will likely sit. Cleveland is locked into the No. 5 seed and has nothing at stake.
