Browns promote Posey, Gurley, cut Rainey

The Cleveland Browns promoted wide receiver Tori Gurley and defensive back Julian Posey to the active roster from the practice squad.

The Browns placed defensive back Josh Aubrey on injured reserve with an ankle injury and waived running back Bobby Rainey.

Gurley appeared in the Browns’ first two games and recorded one catch for 15 yards, then spent the past four weeks on the practice squad.

Posey is a first-year NFL player out of Ohio University. He was signed to the Browns’ practice squad on Sept. 2, after spending training camp with the Dolphins.

Aubrey appeared in six games on special teams. He recorded one special-teams tackle and rushed for 34 yards on a fake punt at Minnesota.
