Cleveland Browns wide receiver Kadarius Toney has been elevated from the practice squad, according to ClevelandBrowns.com.

Toney could make his season debut with the Browns on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints after being signed to the practice squad in September, following his release by the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Florida alumni was the 20th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft to the New York Giants where he spent two seasons before being traded to the Chiefs.

He played 12 games for the Giants, totaling 420 yards and 21 first-down conversions.

In two seasons with Kansas City, he appeared in 20 games, recording 340 yards and three touchdowns.

Last season with the Chiefs, Toney was projected to be the team's leading wide receiver but made several on-field errors, leading to the fourth-year player starting just two games for Kansas City.

He also dealt with several injuries in 2023, including an ankle and a hip injury, limiting him to just 13 games.

In addition to Toney, defensive tackle Sam Kamara and defensive end Elerson Smith have been promoted to the active roster in preparation for Sunday's game.
