The Cleveland Browns continue to tweak the roster ahead of the first wave of free agency next month and April’s NFL Draft.
While several changes are expected at premium positions like quarterback and wideout, the running back position will look vastly different in 2025 too.
On Tuesday, the Browns released Nyheim Hines. Cleveland never activated him back in October before his 21-day practice window expired as he was trying to work back from a torn ACL.
The last game Hines appeared in was the Bills’ playoff loss to the Bengals on Jan. 22, 2023 as he then missed the entire 2023 season after injuring his knee in a jet ski accident.
Across five seasons with the Colts and Bills, Hines posted 1,202 yards on 306 carries across 81 games and 17 starts. His best season came in 2020 when he ran for 380 yards on 89 rushes with three touchdowns.
He also caught 1,778 yards on 240 catches during his career.
The Browns are also expected to move on from Nick Chubb this offseason, but that could change depending on what’s available in free agency and the draft.
