Finds work in New Orleans
Welch signed with the Saints' practice squad Thursday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Welch didn't make the cut for the Browns' initial 53-man roster Tuesday, but he's quickly found a new home on the Saints' practice squad. The 23-year-old tight end went undrafted out of Wyoming this past offseason and he could spend time with New Orleans' active roster if the team's tight-end room faces injuries at some point.

Out in Cleveland
The Browns waived Welch on Tuesday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Welch inked a deal with the Browns in May after going undrafted this past offseason, but the team has now decided to move in a different direction. The Wyoming product caught 31 passes for 308 yards and two touchdowns during his final collegiate season.

May get increased opportunities
Welch could be in line for increased practice reps with teammate Giovanni Ricci expected to miss multiple weeks with a knee injury.
Analysis: Multiple Browns tight ends are now dealing with injuries, including presumptive starter David Njoku (undisclosed) and Zaire Mitchell-Paden (undisclosed). It therefore wouldn't be surprising to see Welch get extended playing time during their preseason finale at Seattle on Saturday.
