    Browns announce two practice squad elevations for Raiders showdown

    As the Cleveland Browns look to get back to .500 on the season in Week 4, they have announced their two practice squad elevations against the Las Vegas Raiders. Tight end Geoff Swaim and cornerback Tony Brown II will be joining the active roster in this game.

    With David Njoku still out for a third game with a high ankle sprain, this gives the Browns a third tight end on the roster. Jordan Akins will once again get a bulk of the work with Blake Whiteheart and Geoff Swaim filling in on 12 and 13 personnel looks.

    Brown is a special teamer who has made a living in that phase of the game. Do not expect to see him on the field defensively but only in the third phase today.

    This is the second practice squad elevation for both, meaning they each can be elevated one more time before having to be placed on the waiver wire. If they clear waivers, then the Browns can re-sign them to the practice squad and elevate them three more times.
