Snap Counts

Here is a look at the snap counts for the position room last season:

How Many In 2025

The Cleveland Browns are likely to head into the 2025 season with three tight ends on the final 53-man roster and one on the practice squad. There is an outside chance they keep two again but this changes shortly into the season last year so doesn't seem like a long term plan.

With how Andrew Berry builds his position rooms they will want to have four rosterable players on the team if they plan to keep three on the 53 man roster. This way you give yourself protection from injury. Currently they only have two you could say are going to make a 53 man roster.
