BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns are releasing quarterback Tyler Huntley after a trade failed to materialize, a source confirmed to ESPN.

Cleveland is expected to fill the open spot on the 53-man roster by re-signing running back D'Onta Foreman, who was released on Tuesday but did not have to clear waivers as a vested veteran.

The Browns kept four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster: Huntley, starter Deshaun Watson, primary backup Jameis Winston and second-year player Dorian Thompson-Robinson. But the team had held trade talks regarding its backups and was unlikely to carry all four into Week 1.
