Dealing with groin injury Kelly (groin) is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Ravens, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

Signed to Browns' active roster The Browns signed Kelly to the 53-man roster Tuesday.
Impact Kelly was cut from the Chargers' practice squad Dec. 23 without playing on the Bolts' active roster. He spent time on the Ravens' practice squad earlier in the season and played 11 special teams snaps across two games. Kelly could serve as the Browns' No. 3 running back behind D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong during Cleveland's regular-season finale against Baltimore on Saturday if Jerome Ford (ankle) is not cleared to play.

Cut loose Monday The Chargers cut Kelly on Monday.
Impact Kelly began the campaign on Baltimore's practice squad and got into two games with the team, though he didn't log any offensive snaps. After being cut by the Ravens on Oct. 1, Kelly signed to the Chargers' practice squad in early December, but he's now been let go without playing in a game for the NFL squad. Kelly will likely now look to provide running back depth for another organization, though he hasn't logged an NFL snap on offense since 2021.

Gets chance with Chargers The Chargers signed Kelly to their practice squad Monday.
Impact Kelly played in two games with Baltimore to begin the season, logging snaps only on special teams. He hasn't had an NFL snap since he rushed twice for 13 yards in 2021 with Cleveland. Kelly will serve as organizational depth at running back for Los Angeles with J.K. Dobbins (knee) on injured reserve, but the former may need one of Gus Edwards, Kimani Vidal or Hassan Haskins to miss time in order to be elevated for game day.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Let go from team Kelly was cut from the Ravens' practice squad Tuesday.
Impact Kelly was elevated from Baltimore's practice squad to their active roster twice this season, handling kick return duties for the team. However, Deonte Harty has taken over that role since, leaving Kelly without much of a role. The Tennessee product will now have to search out a new opportunity.

Goes back to practice squad Kelly reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Promoted for Thursday night The Ravens activated Kelly from the practice squad for Thursday night's Week 1 season opener against the Chiefs.
Impact With Rasheen Ali (neck) out versus Kansas City, the veteran Kelly gets the call as the Ravens' RB3 behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. Kelly rushed 13 times for 52 yards during the preseason. He's unlikely to play more than a handful of snaps Thursday night.

Picked up by Baltimore The Ravens signed Kelly to a contract Tuesday.
Impact Kelly spent most of last season on Cleveland's practice squad but didn't suit up for a regular-season game with the team. The 2018 sixth-round pick now has a chance to compete for a deep depth role in Baltimore, with his best case scenario again likely to be a spot on the practice squad.
AUGUST 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jettisoned by Cleveland The Browns released Kelly on Monday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Kelly spent most of the 2023 season on the Browns' practice squad and did not play in the regular season. His last NFL action was in 2022 when he played 14 snaps on special teams in Week 17 against the Commanders. The 2018 sixth-round pick will look to join a team in need of a running back with special teams experience.

Impact Kelly spent the entirety of the 2022 campaign on Cleveland's practice squad before being elevated prior to the Week 17 win against Washington. The running back wound up exclusively playing on special teams during this contest, and he's now totaled five carries over the past four seasons. Kelly will look to carve out a larger role with the Browns this offseason.
JANUARY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Up on active roster Kelly was elevated from the Browns' practice squad Saturday.
Impact Kelly could be the sixth running back active for the Browns on Sunday, so it's likely he would simply be used on special teams. The 2018 draftee has yet to play a game with Cleveland this season.
DECEMBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Leading rusher Sunday Kelly had 14 carries for 66 yards, including a six-yard touchdown run, in Sunday's preseason game against the Eagles.
Impact Kelly has received a lot of work through the first two preseason games, as the Browns opted to hold out Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. Most of the ground game has been handled by Kelly and rookie fifth-rounder Jerome Ford, with Kelly toting the ball a team-high 24 times. Kelly's 86 yards are second to Ford's 88. There are too many backs in the room right now, so Kelly is not expected to be on the final roster. Ideally, the Browns will be able to stash the 25-year-old back on the practice squad for emergency use.
