Browns plan to release TE Gary Barnidge

Apr 28, 2017

After trading up for Miami TE David Njoku, the Browns have informed veteran TE Gary Barnidge he’ll be cut, source said.

Fantasy Impact:

Barnidge apparently became expendable after the Browns drafted TE David Njoku. Rookie tight ends rarely make a fantasy impact, but the Browns appear to be planning to play Njoku extensively if they were willing to part ways with Barnidge. Barnidge is entering his age 32 season, but shouldn't have a problem finding a new team.

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll told reporters Friday that he expects RB Chris Carson to get more work this week against the New York Giants.

Fantasy Impact:

Carson played 37% of snaps and had 10 touches against the Eagles Week 12, and with Carlos Hyde nursing a toe injury #32 could see his workload nearly double in his second week back from a foot injury.
