Kenyan Drake Fantasy

Veteran running back Kenyan Drake was released by the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday. The 29-year-old signed with Cleveland's practice squad on October 31, but he lasted just under a month with the organization. In a corresponding move, the Browns signed John Kelly Jr., who has been on and off the team's practice squad since 2020. Drake appears to be near the end of his NFL career after stops in Miami, Arizona, Baltimore, and Cleveland.

The Cleveland Browns are signing veteran running back Kenyan Drake to the practice squad on Tuesday. Drake played in one game for the Baltimore Ravens this season, rushing one time for zero yards and catching two passes for 31 yards. He also lost a fumble. He was released on October 17 and has remained a free agent until now. With Kareem Hunt, Jerome Ford, and Pierre Strong Jr. on the roster, it's tough to find a path toward fantasy upside for the 29-year-old ball-carrier. He's likely being signed as a mere depth move since the running back position always sees a ton of injuries. For now, he can be ignored in fantasy football.

Former Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake has been released by the team. The Ravens lost starting running back J.K. Dobbins (achilles) in early September and Drake signed a few weeks later to help shore up their injured backfield. He only played in two games however, totaling 2 catches on three targets for 31 yards and a lost fumble. With both Justice Hill and Gus Edwards seemingly healthy at the moment, there's not much need for the veteran Drake. He'll likely sign with another team's practice squad in the coming days or weeks.
