Shown door by Browns
The Browns cut Kelly from the practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Kelly has been with the practice squad since the beginning of the season but was never elevated to the active roster. The 24-year-old running back has banked eight NFL games in his two-year career, posting 83 yards on 30 carries and 27 yards on two receptions.

Joining Cleveland
The Browns signed Kelly to their practice squad Tuesday, Matt Zenitz of AL.com reports.
Analysis: After the Rams selected him in the sixth round of the 2018 draft, Kelly wasn't afforded much opportunity in a backfield led by Todd Gurley. In the post-Gurley landscape, the RB group was trimmed down to a top three of Malcolm Brown, Darrell Henderson (hamstring) and Cam Akers. The Rams proceeded to waive Kelly, who now will look to work his way up to the Browns' active roster.

Jettisoned by Rams
The Rams waived Kelly on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: A sixth-round selection by the Rams in 2018, Kelly has made just eight appearances through two pro seasons and oscillated between the 53-man roster and practice squad. Overall, he averaged 2.8 yards on 30 carries and hauled in two of three targets for 27 yards. Considering how the team has approached Kelly to date, he likely will be signed to the practice squad if he clears waivers.

Mentioned by coach McVay
Sean McVay mentioned Kelly as one of four running backs on the Rams' roster who can be viewed as a "starting-caliber" player, per The Helliepod podcast.
Analysis: The other three are veteran Malcolm Brown, 2019 third-round pick Darrell Henderson (ankle) and rookie second-round pick Cam Akers. McVay's comment aside, that leaves Kelly as the forgotten man of the group as a 2018 sixth-round pick who has played just 53 offensive snaps in eight NFL games, bouncing between the inactive list, the practice squad and a backup role. There aren't many fantasy formats where Kelly will warrant a draft pick, but he could emerge as a player to watch if the other…read more

Appears in four games
Kelly rushed three times for nine yards in four games during 2019.
Analysis: The 23-year-old was unable to crack the Rams' season-opening roster but remained on the practice squad until being promoted in October, waived and then promoted again. Todd Gurley, Malcolm Brown and Darrell Henderson (ankle) are all under contract for 2020, leaving a difficult path to a roster spot for Kelly next season.

Brought to active roster
Kelly was promoted to the Rams' active roster Saturday.
Analysis: With Darrell Henderson (ankle) on injured reserve, Kelly will serve as the No. 3 running back in Sunday's season finale against the Cardinals. Kelly -- a sixth-round pick by the Rams in the 2018 NFL Draft -- has suited up in seven NFL games, rushing 30 times for 81 yards (2.7 yards per carry) and catching two passes for 27 yards.

Sticks with Rams
Kelly signed with the Rams' practice squad Tuesday, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Kelly was waived by the Rams on Saturday but will remain with the organization after clearing waivers. The 23-year-old appeared in three games while on the 53-man roster and had three carries for nine yards.

Cut by Rams
Kelly was waived by the Rams on Saturday.
Analysis: While Kelly was active for three games with the Rams this season, he saw just four offensive snaps total and ultimately his status on the 53-man roster was a tenuous one. The 2018 sixth-round pick could be a candidate for the practice squad should he pass through waivers.
