Browns Tried Out Three Tight Ends

Cannella, 29, wound up going undrafted out of Auburn back in 2021. He later signed on with the Dolphins.

Cannella had a stint in the USFL before getting a shot with the Packers in 2022. He played for the Arlington Renegades in the XFL, then the UFL, with stints in between with the Seahawks and Buccaneers. 

He spent last year with the Browns’ practice squad before re-signing to a futures deal after the season. Cleveland then released Cannella in May.

In 2025, Cannella caught 44 passes for 474 yards and a touchdown in 10 games with the Renegades. He also appeared in two games for the Browns and caught two passes for 11 yards.
