Teams had until 6 p.m. ET on Saturday to reduce their rosters to a maximum of 53 players. Who was cut?
Both specialists were part of a 13-player, late-afternoon housecleaning that brought the Browns to 53 players ahead of the NFL's 6 p.m. ET deadline, the team announced.
Graham's release was the bigger surprise of the two, but neither he nor Bogotay instilled much confidence during the offseason process.
