  Browns | Judkins, Sampson 'handle all the work' in Browns backfield in return    Mon Oct 26, 05:57 AM

Browns RBs Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson handled all of the work in the backfield in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Titans, their first game back. Judkins ran for 96 yards and two touchdowns in the win.

Footballguys view: As Pro Football Focus suggested, the Browns' running back distribution resembles what most people expected heading into the season. Judkins was the lead back on early downs, dominating short-yardage and goal-line snaps, while Sampson was the principal backup and clear passing-down back. Judkins remains the fantasy-viable option and was especially effective Sunday, hitting new season-high marks for rushing yards and TDs while tearing through Tennessee's defense for 96 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries, providing Cleveland's offense with a much-needed running threat to balance the unit.

  Browns | Judkins runs for 96 yards, two TDs in win over Titans    Sun Oct 25, 04:11 PM

Cleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins ran 17 times for 96 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 1 pass for 8 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was projected for 10.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.9.

Footballguys view: Judkins got out of the gate quickly with a long run to set up the first Browns touchdown, which he scored. He added a second score and showed that the ankle injury to the joint he had surgically repaired after dislocating it last season isn't a problem heading into the Week 8 showdown at Pittsburgh.

  Browns | Concepcion catches 8 passes for 129 yards in win over Titans    Sun Oct 25, 04:11 PM

Cleveland Browns WR KC Concepcion Jr. ran 3 times for 23 yards and also caught 8 passes for 129 yards on 10 targets in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was projected for 8.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.2.

Footballguys view: For the first time this season, Concepcion looked like the swift and dynamic offensive weapon that the Browns were picturing when they took him in the first round. He should be added as a weekly WR3/Flex option in PPR leagues if he was dropped after his slow start.

  Browns | Watson throws for 308 yards in win over Titans    Sun Oct 25, 04:11 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson completed 25 of 36 passes for 308 yards and 1 interception and ran 3 times for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was projected for 16.5 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.2.

Footballguys view: Watson posted a solid fantasy line thanks to some big yardage numbers in the passing game and a short touchdown run that showed off his speed, but this was against a bottom-dwelling Titans defense. He had a good game against the Steelers in a win earlier this season, but Watson isn't a favorable Brock Purdy bye coverage play against them in Pittsburgh, where the Browns usually struggle.

  Browns | Dylan Sampson activated from IR, no injury status for Sunday at Titans    Sat Oct 24, 12:28 PM

The Browns activated RB Dylan Sampson (knee) from injured reserve on Saturday. He will have no injury status for Sunday's game at the Titans. Sampson, a second-year player and 2025 fourth-round pick, suffered the knee injury in the season opener at Jacksonville. He has 175 career rushing yards on 65 attempts and 33 receptions for 271 yards with two touchdowns in 16 career games.

Footballguys view: Sampson is a slashing runner inside who can make plays in open space as a receiver. He's likely to be the primary backup and change of pace to Quinshon Judkins. We like his all-around ability, so Sampson should be stashed in deeper leagues (especially those in PPR formats). Let's see what he looks like in his return before considering him as anything more than a "what the heck" flex.

  Browns | Mason Graham set to return from MCL, ankle sprains: 'I feel good'    Fri Oct 23, 02:32 PM

Browns DT Mason Graham is set to return Sunday at the Titans after missing two games with MCL and ankle sprains suffered against the Steelers in Week 4. Graham said on Friday that he didn't know what to think when he got hurt and that there was fear the injury was more serious. "I feel good," said Graham, who leads the team with four sacks.

  Browns | Quinshon Judkins 'cleared to play' Sunday at Titans    Fri Oct 23, 01:38 PM

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is cleared to play in Sunday's Week 7 game at the Titans, per Friday's injury report. Judkins was ruled out of last Sunday's game against the Ravens after a pregame workout. Head coach Todd Monken said on Wednesday he was "optimistic" Judkins would play against Tennessee.

Footballguys view: Judkins was a game-time decision last week, so anything other than an active status this week would have been cause for alarm. Dylan Sampson is nearing his return and is questionable for this matchup against the Titans. Judkins will cede some work to Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estimé, but you can start him as a solid RB2 this week.

  Browns | Dylan Sampson listed questionable for Sunday at Titans    Fri Oct 23, 01:25 PM

Browns RB Dylan Sampson is questionable for Sunday's game at the Titans. Sampson has been on injured reserve with a knee injury and was designated to return. Head coach Todd Monken said on Wednesday he was "optimistic" Sampson would play against Tennessee.

Footballguys view: Sampson's 21-day practice window opened last week, and he logged a full week of limited practices. There was hope he could upgrade to full status this week, but that didn't happen. Sampson's pass-catching skill set gives him tempting upside in PPR leagues, but fantasy managers might want to take a wait-and-see approach before adding him to lineups.

  Browns | Browns not looking to trade Jerry Jeudy despite 'trade buzz'    Wed Oct 21, 02:47 PM

The Browns are not looking to trade WR Jerry Jeudy despite "trade buzz" surrounding him, as the 4-2 team tries to build on its early-season momentum. Asked on Wednesday about the trade rumors, Jeudy said, "You see it, but you can't do nothing about it. You just keep continuing doing what you do every day." Asked whether he has spoken to general manager Andrew Berry or the front office about a potential trade, Jeudy said, "I'm gonna keep that...you know we just keeping it day-by-day, man. We're doing it day-by-day."

Footballguys view: They say Jeudy is not on the trade block, but for the right price they would move on from the former first-round pick (of the Broncos). Jeudy could help a team in contention as a veteran receiver, and he does not seem to be in the long-term plans for the Browns. Even at 4-2, the team needs to consider getting what they can for Jeudy.

  Browns | Todd Monken 'optimistic' Judkins, Sampson will play vs. Titans    Wed Oct 21, 12:10 PM

Browns head coach Todd Monken said on Wednesday that he is optimistic both RB Quinshon Judkins and RB Dylan Sampson will play against the Titans on Sunday. Judkins was ruled out of last Sunday's game against the Ravens after a pregame workout. Sampson has been on injured reserve with a knee injury suffered in the season opener and returned to practice last week.

Footballguys view: Judkins should be the lead ball-carrier for the Browns now that he's likely to be back in action. We've got Judkins in the RB3/flex range for Fantasy GMs this week. Sampson is a dynamic player in space, and the Browns could use him as their primary receiving back.

  Browns | Fannin held to 1 catch for 9 yards in win over Ravens    Sun Oct 18, 04:00 PM

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught 1 pass for 9 yards on 3 targets in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He was projected for 7.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 1.4.

Footballguys view: Fannin started slow and then appeared to emerge as Deshaun Watson's favorite red-zone target with three touchdowns over two games in Weeks 3 and 4, but he has retreated to the background of the passing game again. The Browns have a good matchup against the weak Titans pass defense in Week 7, but you would be forgiven for dropping Fannin in short-bench leagues, and maybe even in a longer-bench league if you have a strong tight end option and Fannin has been on your bench.

  Browns | Boston held to 1 catch for 15 yards in win over Ravens    Sun Oct 18, 04:00 PM

Cleveland Browns WR Denzel Boston caught 1 pass for 15 yards on 5 targets in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He was projected for 10.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.0.

Footballguys view: Jerry Jeudy has been a trade candidate, but he made the biggest play of the day for the Browns to set up the game-winning field goal. Jeudy led the team in receiving yards and tied for the team lead in receptions, which means this somewhat meager passing game is now going to be split four ways with KC Concepcion Jr. and Harold Fannin Jr. also figuring into the weekly game plan. The Browns are in first place, but there's not a reliable fantasy play on the roster.

Footballguys view: Sampson logged a week of practice and is trending in the right direction. He won't suit up this week but will have a chance to return next week against the Titans, where he can be a valuable RB3 in PPR leagues.

Footballguys view: Concussion protocol typically gives a red or green light on a player's availability. With Concepcion cleared, he'll be out there Sunday with no limitations. He's taken a back seat to fellow rookie Denzel Boston, but still has usage as a WR3, especially in PPR leagues.

  Browns | Quinshon Judkins questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens    Fri Oct 16, 01:19 PM

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is questionable for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Ravens. Judkins returned to practice on Friday after not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday.

Footballguys view: After not practicing at the start of the week, Judkins returned to the field on Friday. The team will likely wait to see how he's feeling after practice before declaring him active or inactive for Sunday's game. The Browns-Ravens game kicks off early Sunday, so if Judkins can't go, fantasy managers will have plenty of pivot options. If he's active, he'll be a shaky RB3 this week with limited practice.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins returned to practice on Friday after not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday this week. The Browns host the Ravens on Sunday.

Footballguys view: After back-to-back DNPs to start the week, Judkins' return to practice is a great sign. He left Week 5's game in a walking boot on his surgically repaired ankle, leading many to panic. The Browns downplayed the severity, but the inability to practice caused more concern. We'll get more information after today's practice, but Judkins still has a chance to play this week. Dylan Sampson also returned to practice this week after an IR stint, but he's been ruled out for Sunday. If Judkins is active, fantasy managers might want to take a wait-and-see approach as he works back from the ankle injury.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was walking around the locker room without a boot ahead of practice on Wednesday. Judkins left the stadium in a right walking boot after Sunday's loss to the Jets, and head coach Todd Monken called him "day-to-day" on Monday.

Footballguys view: A day-to-day designation means Judkins could be closer to playing than some think. However, he might have to miss Week 6 against the Ravens. If that's the case, Jaleel McLaughlin would be in line to be the top back for the Browns. Let's see what Judkins can do on Friday. We see McLaughlin as an RB5/deep flex play if Judkins can't play in Week 6.

  Browns | Shedeur Sanders hires an agent while stuck behind Deshaun Watson    Wed Oct 14, 11:25 AM

Browns QB Shedeur Sanders has hired an agent, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported. Sanders is the backup behind starting QB Deshaun Watson. WR Marvin Harrison Jr. hired a pair of agents last month to seek and facilitate a trade and has since been dealt from the Cardinals to the Texans. Earlier this month, the Browns were reported to "welcome a deal at the right price" for Sanders or QB Dillon Gabriel.

Footballguys view: Even though he fell to the fifth round a year ago, there should be teams interested in Sanders. The Ravens did like him before the draft, so perhaps he could go there and learn behind Lamar Jackson. Sanders has talent as a passer, but so long as Watson is playing good ball, he won't get an opportunity to showcase his talent. We'll see if someone like the idea of adding Sanders as a developmental prospect.

  Raheim Sanders to injured reserve with hip injury, Browns sign Audric Estimé    Tue Oct 13, 04:28 PM

The Browns placed RB Raheim Sanders (hip) on injured reserve on Tuesday and signed RB Audric Estimé to the active roster from the Vikings' practice squad.

Footballguys view: Sanders sustained the hip injury in Sunday's loss to the Jets; he has appeared in all five games this season. Estimé, a third-year player and 2024 fifth-round pick of the Broncos, has appeared in 20 career games with Denver and New Orleans, totaling 122 carries for 508 yards and three touchdowns, plus 17 receptions for 130 yards. Remember, with Quinshon Judkins dealing with an ankle issue and Dylan Sampson out with a knee injury, Jaleel McLaughlin and Estimé are the only healthy backs on the roster. We'll be watching Judkins' progress closely when Cleveland begins practicing on Wednesday.

The Browns are signing RB Audric Estimé to their active roster, according to multiple reports, and will need a corresponding move to clear a 53-man roster spot.

Footballguys view: The move comes after Browns RB Quinshon Judkins left Sunday's loss to the Jets in a walking boot; HC Todd Monken said Monday that Judkins is day-to-day but would not rule anyone out for Week 6 against the Ravens. Judkins has 73 rushing attempts this season, with Raheim Sanders (9) and Jaleel McLaughlin (2) the only other Browns running backs to carry the ball. Estimé had 46 carries for 198 yards and one touchdown in seven games with the Saints last season.

Footballguys view: Judkins left the stadium in a walking boot after Sunday's loss to the Jets. The day-to-day outlook is a positive for the Browns. Backup Raheim Sanders suffered a hip injury in this game, and Jaleel McLaughlin is the only other running back on the active roster. Dylan Sampson is eligible to come off injured reserve after being placed there following Week 1 due to a knee injury, but he was expected to miss significant time and won't be back for Week 6.

Footballguys view: Bond, who entered the game with two catches on two targets, caught three passes for a team-high 74 yards. He also had a critical drop late in the game. Still, if Concepcion doesn't clear the protocol in time to play against the Ravens on Sunday, Bond will likely be busy again.

Footballguys view: Backup running back Raheim Sanders suffered a hip injury in this game.

Footballguys view: Concepcion did not return to the game. Head coach Todd Monken said of the hit: "That's just a bang-bang play. Minkah has been in this league a long time. He's not a dirty player."

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught 1 pass for 4 yards on 4 targets in Sunday's 17-12 loss to the New York Jets. He was projected for 8.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 0.9.

Footballguys view: Fannin was emerging as Deshaun Watson's favorite red zone target with three touchdowns in Weeks 3-4, but he was a dud on a rainy day in New Jersey. He's still worth carrying in fantasy leagues, but the nature of playing with Watson in this low wattage offense will keep his floor low and ceiling touchdown-dependent heading into a matchup with the Ravens.
