The Cleveland Browns signed free-agent QB Josh X. Johnson (Buccaneers) to the active roster. They also signed CB Jordan Mabin to the practice squad. S Usama Young (head) was placed on Injured Reserve.
Footballguys view: Johnson was in training camp with the 49ers earlier this year. He didn't make the final roster despite the fact he was playing for his college coach Jim Harbaugh. Johnson then went to the UFL to play for the Sacramento Mountain Lions. He tried out with the Bears earlier this month, and now gets a shot with the Browns because of injuries to Brandon Weeden and Colt McCoy. |
