The Cleveland Browns have cut wide receiver Kadarius Toney after he had an ugly day against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Not only did Toney have an ugly muff of a punt that the Steelers recovered at the end of the game, but he got called for a taunting penalty that set the Browns back when they would have had great field position.
All of those things led to Toney’s release from the team. He had just been elevated from the practice squad and the Browns had worked him into packages and as a returner. Now, it seems that has been nixed after Toney’s actions.
Toney’s career has been rocky from the start. A first-round pick by the New York Giants out of Florida, he was traded after just a season with the team. The Kansas City Chiefs acquired him, but even then, they could not get much out of Toney, who never saw his skills translate from the college level to the NFL.
He has just 82 receptions for 762 yards to this point in his career, and there is no guarantee that the 25-year-old wide receiver will get another chance after the Browns cut him.
