Brandon Thompson: Released by Browns
Thompson was cut by the Browns on Friday.
Thompson was signed just over a week ago following the released of starting defensive lineman Desmond Bryant. He was inactive throughout the 2016 season due to a knee injury and ultimately was unable to find a spot on the team's final roster at the tail end of training camp.

Browns' Brandon Thompson: Signs with Browns
Thompson signed a contract with the Browns on Tuesday, Mary Kat Cabot of Cleveland.com reports.
Thompson's signing comes on the heels of Cleveland's release of starting defensive lineman Desmond Bryant. Thompson didn't play in 2016 due to a knee injury. In his last season of action, 2015, Thompson recorded just eight tackles, including 0.5 sacks, in nine games. He figures to compete for a backup role along the Browns' defensive line.

Brandon Thompson: Released by Bengals
Thompson was released by the Bengals on Sunday.
Thompson, who's been a disappointment since the Bengals took him in the third round of the 2012 draft, wasn't available at any point last season after tearing his ACL during the last game of the 2015 campaign. He was likely deemed expendable since the team has done a good job of adding younger talent around him in recent years. Regardless, Thompson is now free to sign elsewhere.

Bengals' Brandon Thompson: Remains on Bengals roster ahead of 2017 season
Thompson remains on the Bengals 90-man roster ahead of the 2017 season.
Thompson -- who originally tore his ACL in Week 17 of the 2015 season -- signed a one-year deal with the Bengals last year, but since he spent the entire 2016 season on the Reserve/PUP list, his contract rolled over to 2017. However, the 2012 third-rounder is far from being guaranteed a roster spot and will need to prove his worth in training camp and the preseason.
