Jarvis Landry Rumors: Browns Cut WR; Chiefs, Bills, Packers Linked as Landing Spots

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Cleveland Browns have parted ways with wide receiver.

Rapoport listed the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs as teams to watch as the receiver enters free agency. The Green Bay Packers are also expected to be in the mix according to Mike Garafolo.

Spotrac says the move saves Cleveland $14.8 million against the salary cap. After acquiring receiver Amari Cooper in a trade from the Dallas Cowboys, the organization had previously allowed him to seek a trade.

In his last season in 2021, he caught a career-low 52 passes for 570 yards and two touchdown. He was dealing with a high-grade MCL sprain, partial quad tear and bone bruise since Week 2.

He missed five games last season because of injuries, a rare occurrence for a player who had missed only one game in his first seven seasons.

Prior to last year, the 29-year-old had been one of the most consistent wideouts in the league, catching at least 70 passes in every season while earning five Pro Bowl selections. He led the league with 112 catches and averaged over 90 per year from 2014-20.

Multiple Super Bowl teams are already interested in him in free agency.

Green Bay, Kansas City and Buffalo all ranked among the best offenses in the league last season, and all three have a true No. 1 option at receiver. There is still a problem with depth for each team, so it is possible that Landry could fill a void as a safety valve for the elite quarterbacks.

The three teams would likely put him in the running for the Super Bowl. The veteran has played in only three playoff games.

The team will look to Cooper to handle a heavy workload next season, as they did with Peoples-Jones.
