The Cleveland Browns signed former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney on Monday after their embarrassing 33-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1.
Toney, a fourth-year player who was a member of Kansas City’s last two Super Bowl rosters, is a dynamic but wildly inconsistent talent who will be a boom-or-bust acquisition for the lowly Browns.
Known for his inexplicable struggles with drops last season, Toney is set to get a fresh start on Cleveland’s practice squad, where he will fight for a chance to be elevated to the Browns’ active roster.
Cleveland’s offense was in total disarray against Dallas, and Toney’s signing with the Browns is interesting, given his erratic performance with the Chiefs.

During his five starts over two regular seasons in Kansas City, Toney made 41 catches for 340 yards and scored three touchdowns.
News of his acquisition by the Browns was far from the most concerning storyline coming out of Cleveland on Monday, and for now, it seems like the team is in an absolute free-fall.
