Elevated from practice squad
The Browns elevated Cannella from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Cannella could see the field for the second game in a row after being elevated from the practice squad in back-to-back weeks. With both Harold Fannin (groin) and David Njoku (knee) out in Week 18, Cannella has another opportunity to build off his Week 17 game, where he led all tight ends with four targets, accounting for two receptions and 11 yards.

Returns to practice squad
Cannella reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Cannella was elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's 13-6 win over the Steelers in Week 17, and he ultimately led all tight ends with four targets, reeling in two of them for 11 yards. With Harold Fannin (groin) unable to complete the game, Cannella was thrust into a more significant role, and he could be elevated again prior to Sunday's final regular-season contest against the Bengals.

Leads TEs in targets
Cannella caught two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Steelers in Week 17.
Analysis: Cannella was elevated from the practice squad for the game and unexpectedly led the team's tight ends in targets. That's partially due to Harold Fannin (groin) being removed after just 12 snaps. It's notable that Cannella was the preferred target over the already rostered Blake Whiteheart and Brenden Bates. If the Browns opt to shelve Fannin for the regular-season finale against the Bengals, Cannella could serve as the primary receiving option at tight end.

Elevated from practice squad
The Browns have elevated Cannella from the practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Cannella is being elevated as a depth option at tight end due to top playmaker Harold Fannin (groin) being listed as questionable and David Njoku (groin) ruled out. The expectation is that Fannin will be good to go versus Pittsburgh, but Cannella will get a chance to handle third-string duties if the rookie starter ends up inactive.

Joins Cleveland's practice squad
Cannella signed with Cleveland's practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: Cannella remains with the Browns organization despite failing to earn a spot on the team's 53-man roster. With the status of third-string tight end Blake Whiteheart (knee) in doubt for Week 1, Cannella may not have to wait long for a chance to join the active roster.

Earns opportunity with Browns
Cleveland agreed to terms Thursday on a contract with Cannella, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Cannella led all UFL tight ends with 470 receiving yards last season, and he now gets another chance to develop with an NFL club. He spent training camp in 2024 with the Buccaneers but didn't make the team's 53-man roster.

Cut by Bucs
The Buccaneers waived Cannella on Sunday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Analysis: Cannella signed with the Bucs at the beginning of training camp. He registered two catches for 16 yards against the Jaguars on Aug. 17, but he did not record a catch in his other two preseason outings. Cannella will explore his next options should he go unclaimed off waivers.

Slated to sign with Bucs
Cannella will be signing with Tampa Bay, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Cannella has yet to play an NFL snap since ending his college career in 2019, but he's had some success in the XFL/UFL, most notably leading the UFL with six receiving touchdowns while racking up 496 receiving yards (fifth-most in the league) on 53 receptions (third-most) with Arlington this spring. Cannella will look to earn a roster spot among a Tampa Bay TE corps that is headed by Cade Otton, who played over 90 percent of the team's offensive snaps last season.
