Kevin Mack, the Cleveland Browns’ top rusher last season with 726 yards, and linebacker Frank Stams, sidelined because of a pulled leg muscle, were brought off injured reserve. Cleveland placed tight end Pete Holohan on injured reserve because of a sore foot, and rookie guard Tom Myslinski was cut.
