After a dismal rushing performance Sunday in Jacksonville, the Browns are making some moves on the ground.
Fullback Kiero Small has been moved up from the practice squad to the active roster, while fullback Ray Agnew has been waived, the team announced Monday.
Small, converted to fullback at Arkansas from a linebacker in community college, is a 5-foot-9, 242-pound rookie, who was originally a seventh round selection of the Seattle Seahawks.
Agnew, also a rookie, started all six of the Browns' games at fullback this season, notching two carries for two yards and two catches for 15 yards.
Sunday's game was the first for the Browns without Pro Bowl center Alex Mack, who suffered a season-ending injury against the Steelers. John Greco moved from guard to center, while Paul McQuistan started at the guard spot previously filled by Greco
The Browns averaged just 2.3 yards per carry and 69 total yards on the ground against a Jaguars defense that has allowed an average of more than 100 rushing yards per game this season.
