CLEVELAND – The Cleveland Browns claimed former Cincinnati Bearcats defensive back DeAngelo Smith off waivers from the Detroit Lions.

He signed with Cleveland but was inactive for the season opener against Minnesota and waived on Sept. 16.
Smith made 28 career starts at Cincinnati, where he recorded 126 tackles and 12 interceptions for the Bearcats.
