5 Cleveland Browns whose stock is up in preseason finale vs Falcons
4. Cleveland Browns: John Kelly, RB
There just doesn’t seem to be a path to the roster for John Kelly, but the running back was really good against the Falcons where he saw a lot of action.
Kelly didn’t get the same kind of protection as Kareem Hunt, but he still managed to break three tackles on 10 carries. Kelly rushed for 30 yards, while also adding a reception for 26 yards. It would not be surprising to see him catch on elsewhere after putting together a good camp with the Browns.
Nick Chubb didn’t play in the contest, while Kareem Hunt only played a few series. Demetric Felton is going to make the team. He had four carries and was impressive yet again. It was especially nice seeing him rip off a 37-yard kickoff return.
D’Ernest Johnson had a game as well, catching five balls out of the backfield for 44 yards.
One of the interesting storylines on the final roster will be to watch how the Browns handled the Johnson/Felton/JoJo Natson log jam.
