The Cleveland Browns made a move to bolster their wide receiver group on Tuesday by claiming James Wright off waivers from the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Browns announced the move on their website.
Wright was originally a seventh-round selection by the Bengals in the 2014 NFL Draft. He appeared in 11 games as a rookie, recording five receptions, before hurting his knee in a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in November of that year. That injury led to microfracture surgery and a stint on injured reserve for the entire 2015 season.
Last season the 6-foot and 203-pound Wright appeared in 13 games, making 13 receptions for 106 yards.
