Cleveland Browns are parting ways with their former sixth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Cleveland is set to waive guard Drew Forbes, according to a report.

Browns had to make the move since they signed another offensive lineman to the 53-man roster. Veteran offensive lineman Joe Haeg was recently signed to a deal.

The current front office led by Andrew Berry did not draft Forbes, so they were never tied to him in any sort. Forbes never received a good shake with the Browns after taking off the 2020 season due to COVID-19, he appeared in one game in 2021, three for his two-year career.

This move comes as no surprise. Making the initial 53-man roster was not a lock for Forbes originally. Additionally, the Browns waived linebacker Jordan Kunaszyk to make room for tight end Jesse James. 

The Detroit Lions have claimed Forbes on waivers.
