Chris Barker: Not retained by Browns
Chris Barker (Achilles) didn't receive a qualifying offer or minimum tender from the Browns and has become an unrestricted free agent, per the league's official transaction log.The move doesn't come as any surprise after Barker spent the entire 2017 campaign on injured reserve due to a preseason Achilles injury.
