Taylor was released by the Browns on Tuesday, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports.

EDGE Analysis
A former 2011 first-round draft pick who has started 42 of his 44 career games, Taylor apparently hasn't bounced back strong from last year's season-ending knee injury. The Browns must have really been unimpressed, as his $5.48 million salary -- via the fifth-year option on his rookie contract -- is fully guaranteed. First-round draft pick Danny Shelton is expected to start at nose tackle.
