Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports The Cleveland Browns placed new acquisition Brian Allen (calf) on injured reserve on Monday, ending the center's season.
Allen, 28, who signed with the Browns in May, suffered a calf injury on the third day of training camp.
The Browns announced the signing of guard Zack Johnson in a corresponding move.
Allen was drafted in the fourth round by the Los Angeles Rams in 2018. In 2021, he made 16 starts in the regular season and four more in the playoffs as Los Angeles marched to a Super Bowl LVI championship.
Allen then missed 22 of the Rams' 34 games over the past two seasons. He dealt with knee and thumb injuries in 2022 and lost his starting job to Coleman Shelton last season.
The Browns have centers Ethan Pocic and Luke Wypler on the roster. Pocic made 15 starts last season for Cleveland, while Wypler played in five games (one start) as a 2023 rookie.
