Browns make 3 roster moves on the eve of their Christmas Eve showdown vs. Saints

As the Cleveland Browns get set to take on the New Orleans Saints tomorrow, they have made three roster moves in advance. They have already ruled out defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, and safety John Johnson III is questionable. However, Nick Chubb, Amari Cooper, and Myles Garrett will be good to go after they were not given gameday injury designation. The Saints will be without wide receivers Jarvis Landry and Chris Olave as well.

What moves did the Browns make today as they get set to seek out their fourth win in five games? We take a look at all three of those moves here.
