The Browns cut CB Kenny Wright on Wednesday, six weeks after an incident in which Wright was charged with marijuana possession, evading arrest and unlawful restraint in Texas.

Police in Pearland, Texas, are accusing Wright of having 1.875 oz. of marijuana in his vehicle at the time of the arrest. Wright had three tackles and one quarterback pressure last season in Cleveland.

Fantasy Impact: None
