Browns place three on IR, waive two others
The Cleveland Browns made five roster moves on Monday as they continue to trim the roster and place players on injured reserve.
The Cleveland Browns made the necessary roster moves Monday in order to get down to the required 80. Cody Parkey, Connor Davis, and Montrel Meander have been placed on injured reserve. Additionally, the team waived Alex Taylor and Alexander Hollins.

Roster now down to 80
The only real move of consequence here is the placement of Parkey on IR. Parkey was one of two options vying for the kicking job, the other being Chase McLaughlin. By default the job now belongs to McLaughlin, but that could change either prior or during the season.
