Brown releasing WR Kenny Britt

Dec 08, 2017

The Browns brought on John Dorsey as the team's new general manager today and he's already making moves, letting Britt go. Britt was a big-name free agent signing this offseason and was going to replace Terrelle Pryor in the offense as the team's top receiver. That didn't happen though.

In nine games this season, Britt caught 18 passes for 233 yards and 2 TDs—a disappointment following his 1,002-yard season from a year ago. It's expected Britt will clear waivers, at which point he'll be free to sign with another team.

Wide receiver Davante Adams left the game with a hamstring injury and did not return.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur gave a positive update about the wideout’s condition during his press conference.

“I know he wanted to go back in the game,” LaFleur said, via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “I just told him, ‘Hey, let’s see how these next few series go, and see if we need you’ Obviously, he’s a huge part of what we do offensively and a key member of this Football Team. If we don’t need him, we didn’t want to put him back in a position to do further harm to his own body.”

Fantasy Impact:

It sounds like Adams could have gone back in the game if the Packers needed him. All-in-all, it seems like good news for Adams and his owners. We'll likely know more when Wednesday's injury report comes out.

Leonard Fournette clinched Sunday’s win over the Panthers with a 46-yard touchdown, and had 104 yards on the day.

Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians isn’t ready to change his running back rotation, however, sticking with Ronald Jones as his starter.

Related players: LeSean McCoy

Fantasy Impact:

Arians was quoted as saying he loves the way the situation is working right now, with Jones and McCoy working early and Fournette coming in later. Fournette gained 84 of his 104 yards in the final 10 minutes of the game, including the touchdown, the story said. It's not the first time we've heard about what sounds like a 'closer' situation this week. Those who follow the Rams say Darrell Henderson essentially closed things out in Week 2 against the Eagles.
