The Browns waived Cota on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cota caught on with the Browns in late July, but he'll be on the lookout to join a new team assuming he clears waivers. He has not seen NFL regular-season action since signing with the Lions as an undrafted free agent in May of 2023.

The Cowboys worked out Cota (collarbone) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cowboys are looking to add depth to their wide receiver group due to Brandin Cooks (knee) being on injured reserve. Cota signed a reserve/future contract with the Giants in January, but he broke his collarbone during minicamp in June and was waived with an injury settlement Sept. 13. Cota appears to have fully recovered from the injury and is attempting to land on the Cowboys' active roster or practice squad.

The Giants waived Cota (collarbone) from IR with an injury settlement Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cota broke his collarbone during a minicamp practice in June and landed on injured reserve shortly thereafter. It's not clear how far along Cota is in his recovery, but by reaching an injury settlement with New York he is now eligible to suit up for another team at some point in the 2024 campaign.

The Giants placed Cota (collarbone) on injured reserve Tuesday, Matt Citak of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cota sustained a broken collarbone during minicamp practice Tuesday, and he'll now move to season-ending IR. The 23-year-old could still appear in the 2024 campaign if he is waived with an injury settlement, though he may have to wait until the 2025 season to make his NFL debut. Cota spent his 2023 rookie campaign between the Chiefs' and Texans' practice squads.

Cota sustained a broken collarbone during Tuesday's minicamp practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday that he hopes every player on the Giants' roster will be ready for training camp, so it sounds like Cota's recovery may not be lengthy. As a rookie last season, Cota spent time on the Chiefs' and Texans' practice squads.

The Giants signed Cota to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cota will head to New York after spending this past season on both Kansas City's and Houston's practice squads. The rookie undrafted free agent will likely spend the offseason competing for a depth role.

The Texans signed Cota to the practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The move corresponds with Houston letting go kicker Matt Ammendola from the taxi squad. Cota signed with the Chiefs' practice squad on Sept. 26 after reaching an injury settlement with the Lions on Aug. 30. The addition of Cota may be insurance for the Texans, who placed Tank Dell (fibula) on injured reserve Dec. 5 while Nico Collins was knocked out of Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jetts with a calf injury.
