Monday afternoon, the Cleveland Browns announced 16 roster cuts as they work toward getting things down to 53 players by 4:00 pm ET this Tuesday. The moves announced today include:

Offense

RB Aidan Robbins
RB Jacob Saylors
G Wyatt Davis
G Zack Johnson
T Roy Mbaeteka
T Chim Okorafor

The biggest name on offense is Robbins, the undrafted running back. Although he was not favored to make the roster initially, with all of the injuries at the position, his roster odds had ticked up. The fact that Pierre Strong returned to practice may have dimmed his chances, though.

Defense

DE Isaiah Thomas
DE Jeremiah Martin
LB Landon Honeycutt
LB Caleb Johnson
LB Marvin Moody
S Tyler Coyle
S Chase Williams (injury designation)
CB Faion Hicks

On defense, the biggest name being cut is former seventh-round pick Isaiah Thomas. However, he also didn’t make the roster last year and was stashed on the practice squad.

Special Teams

K Lucas Havrisik
LS Rex Sunahara
