Browns Place Three Rookies on Injury Lists as Rookies Report to Camp

Cleveland Browns rookies reported to training camp in Berea on Wednesday. The rest of the team reports next Wednesday, and the first public training camp session is next Thursday.

The Browns made three injury-related transactions on Wednesday, placing TE Randall Telfer and CB Ifo Ekpre-Olomu on the active/non-football injury list, while placing DL Tory Slater on the active/physically unable to perform list. All three players still count toward the team's 90-man roster.

Here is why it's a benefit for the Browns to make the moves that they did: it gives them the flexibility to extend those designations part-way into the regular season, where they would not count toward the 53-man roster.
