Signed to active roster
The Browns signed Darden from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Darden had already reached his maximum of three elevations from the practice squad, meaning he had to be inked to the 53-man roster in order to contribute Sunday against the Chargers. The 25-year-old will continue working as a key punt returner for the Browns, as well as playing a depth role on offense.

With five bodies locked in above him on the depth chart, Darden will have to be explosive in camp and preseason games.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Surprise pick to make team
Zac Jackson of The Athletic projects that Darden will make Cleveland's 53-man roster.
ANALYSIS
Darden's a surprising choice to snag the final wide receiver spot over Jakeem Grant and recent third-round draft picks David Bell and Anthony Schwartz. Darden's flexibility as a gadget player on offense and return man on special teams could earn him a roster spot, especially if Grant remains hampered by the Achilles injury that sidelined him for the entire 2022 season.
