Here are several roster moves to pass along from the Cleveland Browns:
The team put two key veterans on season-ending injured reserve Wednesday in punter Dave Zastudil (knee) and tight end Steve Heiden. The team also claimed former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Arnold Harrison and Green Bay receiver Jake Allen off waivers.
"Steve and Dave worked extremely hard this year, and you don’t like to see anyone’s season end prematurely because of an injury," Browns coach Eric Mangini said in a statement. "They both provided a veteran presence that will not be easy to replace."
Heiden played in seven games this year and caught 10 passes for 73 yards and a touchdown. Zastudil was one of Cleveland's steadiest players with an average of 44.7 yards per punt.
