Officially back with Browns
Corley signed his exclusive-rights free-agent tender with Cleveland on Monday.
Analysis: Corley joined Cleveland late last August after being waived by the Jets. The Western Kentucky product ended up playing 13 games with the Browns, recording 11 receptions (on 14 targets) for 79 yards. Corley also featured as the team's lead kick returner, taking 21 returns for 492 yards. He'll likely fill a similar role during the upcoming season.

Tendered by Cleveland
Cleveland placed an exclusive rights free-agent tender on Corley on Wednesday.
Analysis: After being cut by the Jets following the preseason, Corley latched on with the Browns and appeared in 13 regular-season games last season. Corley logged 194 offensive snaps and caught 11 of 14 targets for 79 yards while adding 127 rushing yards on 13 carries. Corley will compete for a job under new coach Todd Monken this offseason.

Five touches in win
Corley caught both of his targets for 20 yards and had three carries for 18 yards in Sunday's 20-18 win over the Bengals in Week 18.
Analysis: As has often been the case this season with the Browns, Corley saw work as a receiver and runner, and this was the eighth time in 13 games he was used in both roles. He latched on with Cleveland after being cut by the Jets prior to the start of the regular season, and finished the regular season with 11 catches on 14 targets for 79 yards and 13 carries for 127 yards, while averaging 23.4 yards on 21 kickoff returns. Cleveland is expected to make significant changes this offseason, and the free…read more

One touch in win
Corley caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Steelers in Week 17.
Analysis: Corley, whose playing time has ticked up the last few weeks, played the third-most snaps at wide receiver for the Browns behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman. As has been the case all season however, the offense is not set up to provide value for multiple wideout, and Corley has just four catches for 25 yards over the last three games. He's made a bigger impression as a kickoff returner, but that role went away Sunday, as the Browns tapped Trayveon Williams for those duties.

More involved in Week 16
Corley caught two of four targets for 11 yards and gained 30 rushing yards on three carries in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Buffalo in Week 16. He also returned four kickoffs for 107 yards.
Analysis: Corley was allotted season highs in targets and snaps (30 snaps, 45 percent) in the loss. His three rush attempts were also a season high, as the rookie wideout was part of the crew that stepped up in the wake of running back Quinshon Judkins' season-ending leg and ankle injuries. Corley is part of an unimpressive wideout group in Cleveland but is setting himself up for a spot on next year's roster.

Corley caught his lone target for 10 yards and returned two kickoffs for 45 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Chicago in Week 15.
Analysis: Corley was touch-and-go all week but eventually cleared the concussion protocol and suited up Sunday. He was back in a familiar role as a depth wideout and kickoff returner.

Available for Week 15
Corley (concussion) is active for Sunday's clash against Chicago.
Analysis: Corley suffered a concussion last Sunday against Tennessee, but he's since been able to clear concussion protocol and is set to suit up Sunday. The second-year wideout has had an inconsistent role in Cleveland's offense, though he had logged a snap share north of 25 percent in each of the four weeks prior to getting hurt. Corley has also been working as one of the team's top kick returners.

Questionable for Week 15
Corley (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: The second-year pro from Western Kentucky sustained a concussion in the Week 14 loss to the Titans, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he's got a chance to play Sunday. Corley has appeared in nine games for the Browns this season, catching five of six targets for 34 yards and rushing seven times for 79 yards while operating as one of the team's top kick returners. He must still clear concussion protocol in order to suit up in Week 15, and if he's unable to do so, Trayveon…read more

Corley has entered the league's concussion protocol and will not return to Sunday's game against the Titans, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Corley was shaken up on a jet sweep run after being tackled by Amani Hooker. Gage Larvadain should see more reps at wide receiver, and Jerome Ford and Isaiah Bond are in line for more work as returners on kickoffs in Corley's absence.

Negative impact in loss
Corley was not targeted, had one carry for nine yards and returned four kickoffs for 73 yards in Sunday's 26-8 loss to San Francisco in Week 13.
Analysis: Under the NFL's new kickoff formation, returners typically average more than the 18 yards Corley managed Sunday. Unfortunately, he fielded one kick inches from the sideline and fell out of bounds. Had he allowed the kick to roll out of bounds, the Browns' struggling offense would have begun its possession at their own 40-yard line instead of in the shadow of its own goal-line. The Browns' kick returners had a bad day all around while fighting windy conditions, as punt returner Gage Larvadain…read more

Minor role in win
Corley caught his lone target for eight yards, had one carry for minus-6 yards and returned two kickoffs for 58 yards in Sunday's 24-10 win over Las Vegas in Week 12.
Analysis: Corley served in a variety roles in the win, continues the usage he's seen three times in the last four games. He accumulated 13 snaps on offense, and his 25 percent share Sunday was on par with the previous three weeks. Corley has gained more yards as a runner (68 on five carries) than as a receiver (34 on five receptions), but in the aggregate he offers little fantasy value.

Secures two catches in loss
Corley caught both of his targets for nine yards and returned three kickoffs for 75 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Ravens in Week 11.
Analysis: Corley, who opened the year on the Browns' practice squad, has done a little bit of everything since being added to the active roster in Week 5. His major contributions have come on special teams, where the 2024 third-round pick has emerged as the team's top kick returner. In addition, the former Jet has caught four of five targets for 26 yards and carried the rock four times for 74 yards.

Afforded one target in loss
Corley failed to catch his lone target, had two carries for 32 yards and returned one kickoff for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10.
Analysis: Cleveland's passing attack under rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel isn't strong enough to support fringe receivers like Corley. Cedric Tillman's return from injury also impacted the depth wideouts Sunday and Corley's 20 snaps were in line with Jamari Thrash (22) and Gage Larvadain (18). Corley has been effective as a runner however, ripping off two 16-yard gains Sunday while averaging 18.5 yards over four carries this season.

Responsible for longest play
Corley was not targeted, had one carry for 31 yards and returned five kickoffs for 112 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Patriots in Week 8.
Analysis: Corley was on the field for just four offensive snaps, but his 31-yard end around on the team's first possession immediately preceded Cleveland's first touchdown. It was club's longest play from scrimmage. He also took over the kick-return duties, which have been a revolving door since DeAndre Carter (knee) landed on injured reserve. The 32-year-old Carter is eligible to return following the team's Week 9 bye, but the 2-6 Browns would be better served by getting a look at their rookies and…read more

Targeted twice in win
Corley caught both of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 31-6 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Corley was targeted for the first time in three games and was on the field for a season-high 13 snaps. There's a mix of options behind No. 1 wideout Jerry Jeudy, and Corley has as good a chance as any of them to pop in a given week. The issue is Cleveland's offense, which ranks 30th in passing (178.3 yards per game) and scoring (16.1 points per game).

Corley had one carry for 11 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Vikings in Week 5.
Analysis: Corley was signed to the active roster last week and made his season debut.

Corley joined the Browns' practice squad in late August after failing to make the Jets' 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

The Jets waived Corley on Tuesday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
Analysis: The 2024 third-round pick lasted just one year with the team that drafted him, logging 83 snaps on offense and fumbling out of the end zone on one of his five touches. Corley should generate interest elsewhere in the NFL, if only as a practice-squad signing after clearing waivers.

Shaky case for roster spot
Corley didn't catch either of his two targets in Friday's 19-17 preseason loss to the Eagles. He also had 51 yards on two kickoff returns.
Analysis: Corley didn't help his chances of making the team with Friday's goose egg on offense. The 2024 third-round draft pick excelled at gaining yards after the catch at Western Kentucky, but his skills didn't translate to NFL success as a rookie, as he had just three catches in nine appearances.

One catch in preseason opener
Corley caught one of two targets for eight yards and had a 31-yard kickoff return in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: Corley didn't contribute much Saturday, and the 2024 third-round draft pick looks to be on the roster bubble heading into his second NFL season under a new coaching staff. Allen Lazard (shoulder) exited Saturday's game, and Xavier Gipson (shoulder) remains sidelined.

Analysis: Corley missed most of OTAs and minicamp due to an undisclosed injury. He was cleared to return to practice Wednesday but struggled during 11-on-11 drills, and the 2024 third-rounder will have to make the most of his reps during training camp to earn a spot on the Jets' 53-man roster for the 2025 campaign. Corley played just 80 offensive snaps across nine regular-season games last year, posting three catches (on six targets) for 16 yards while rushing for 26 yards on two carries.

Analysis: Corley struggled to make an impact after being drafted 65th overall by the Jets in 2024, finishing with three catches for 16 yards on six targets and adding two carries for 26 yards while appearing in nine games. There's an opportunity for Corley to grab a larger role in 2025 since the Jets lack a clear pecking order at wide receiver behind Garrett Wilson, but Corley will first need to recover and retake the practice field in order to make his case for more playing to the team's new coaching…read more

Plays sparingly as rookie
Corley caught three of six targets for 16 yards and rushed twice for 26 yards in nine games in 2024.
Analysis: Corley didn't see the field much as a rookie, and what would have been his best play was marred by a brain cramp, as he celebrated prematurely and dropped the ball before crossing the goal line on an 18-yard run against the Texans in Week 9. The 2024 third-round draft pick out of Western Kentucky was known for gaining yards after the catch in college, but Corley didn't get many chances to showcase those skills in his first NFL season.

Analysis: Corley sustained an elbow injury in the Jets' Week 17 loss to the Bills, but him being listed as a full participant in the team's walkthrough practice Wednesday suggests he's already moved past the issue. The 2024 third-round pick from Western Kentucky has appeared in just nine games this season, recording five touches for 82 yards over 80 offensive snaps.

Does little with decent snap share
Corley didn't catch either of his two targets and added an eight-yard run in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Corley played 41 snaps on offense (60 percent) to Xavier Gipson's 19, suggesting that the rookie third-round pick has become the Jets' preferred option in the slot for the stretch run. While the increased playing time is encouraging, Corley has yet to capitalize. He has just 42 career scrimmage yards, and Corley's most notable play to date was an 18-yard run on which he celebrated prematurely and threw the ball away just before crossing the goal line back in Week 9.

Corley is not among the Jets' inactives for their battle against New England on Sunday, Randy Lange of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Corley was a healthy scratch three straight games coming into Week 8, but he'll be available to play against the Patriots. The rookie's active status comes as veteran wideout Allen Lazard is inactive due to a chest injury. Corley has just one catch on one target for four yards in only two offensive snaps over the three regular-season games he's participated in thus far, so he's unlikely to see much action Sunday.

Quiet in preseason finale
Corley recorded one catch on three targets for five yards in Saturday's 10-6 preseason win over the Giants.
Analysis: Corley played for the entire first half and appeared regularly in 11 personnel. His play remained inconsistent, as he was called for a holding penalty on the team's first drive and also had a reception reversed for failing to complete the process of the catch. Given his status as a third-round pick, Corley's roster spot should be safe. However, his ability to contribute immediately offensively is far less clear.

Corley recorded two receptions (on two targets) for 10 yards in Saturday's 15-12 preseason win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The Jets sat all of their projected starters, leaving Corley to catch the team's first pass of the game from Andrew Peasley. Corley has had a solid exhibition season, tallying six catches for 37 yards while also working as one of the team's kick returners. Special teams could be the primary path for him to find the field at the start of the regular season, though Corley could challenge Xavier Gipson for snaps in the slot as the campaign progresses.
