Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 5, and no longer appears on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Njoku has nursed this knee injury for the majority of this season. He's lost his role as the team's primary pass-catching tight end to rookie Harold Fannin. He's a viable streamer, although very risky. |

Cleveland Browns QB DeShaun Watson (Achilles) is not 'likely' to play in 2025.
| Footballguys view: Watson had his 21-day window opened on Wednesday, and that sparked some more controversy in this quarterback room. However, Watson is unlikely to play in 2025 as he comes back from another Achilles' injury. We could see Watson in a competition next year with Shedeur Sanders, Dillon Gabriel, and perhaps another quarterback (draft pick or free agent). |

Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson (Achilles') had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: It's an interesting note for the Browns, but HC Kevin Stefanski would not give a timeline for the veteran quarterback to return. Shedeur Sanders is now the starter, and he's learning the hard way on the field. If he stalls, or if the Browns' brass doesn't want him out there, perhaps Watson could be ready to play. It seems outlandish, but it's the Browns so anything is possible. |

Cleveland Browns OG Wyatt Teller (calf) will not play in the Week 14 game, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski.
Link to storyCleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (calf) is considered day-to-day because of the calf injury he suffered in Week 13, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski.
| Footballguys view: Sampson left yesterday's loss to the 49ers due to the injury and did not return. He had four carries for 23 yards with no receptions or targets before departing. Sampson's name flickered on the fantasy radar after he took a short pass to the house against the Raiders in Week 12. He was of interest in deep leagues as the backup to Quinshon Judkins, and that still may be the case if he returns quickly. We'll continue to monitor. |
Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders is confirmed to be the starting quarterback in Week 14 against the Tennessee Titans, head coach Kevin Stefanski said Sunday, Nov. 30.
Link to storyCleveland Browns WR Cedric Tillman was targeted one time during the Week 13 game against the San Francisco 49ers but finished the game with zero receptions.
Link to storyCleveland Browns TE David Njoku caught two passes for four yards against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He was targeted two times during the game.

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught three passes for 43 yards and one touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He was targeted five times during the game. He also lost a fumble during the game.
| Footballguys view: Fannin was unsuccessful on a tush push call, but Shedeur Sanders found him open after stepping up in the pocket to account for the Browns only touchdown. Fannin is worth a waiver wire add if he is out there. He'll also be worth a spot in your lineup against the Titans next week. |
Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (calf) rushed for 23 yards on four carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13 before leaving the game because of a calf injury.
Link to storyCleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins rushed for 91 yards on 23 carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He also caught three passes for 18 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Judkins added a two point conversion on a direct snap to help put up a good RB2 game despite the lopsided loss. The Browns offense is limited, but their defense should keep games close enough to make Judkins an everyweek RB2 play. He has a high ceiling against the Titans next week, although they shut down the Jaguars running game in Week 13. |
Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders went 16-for-25 for 149 yards and one touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He also rushed for six yards on one carry during the game.
| Footballguys view: Sanders actually matched Brock Purdy in quality of play on a windy afternoon, and still deserves to get the rest of the season to prove that he should be a primary player in the Browns quarterback competition next season. He'll be a QB2/Superflex option against the Titans next week as long as the minor injury that briefly sidelined him isn't a problem during the week of practice. |
Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (calf) left the Week 13 game against the San Francisco 49ers due to a calf injury, and did not return. He had four carries for 23 yards with no receptions or targets before departing.
| Footballguys view: Sampson's name flickered on the fantasy radar after he took a short pass to the house last week. He was of interest in deep leagues as the backup to Quinshon Judkins. Jerome Ford replaced him as the passing down back. |

Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders may continue to be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season if he plays well in upcoming games, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Not exactly breaking news here. If Sanders is a better option than Dillon Gabriel (which should not be difficult), then the Browns stick with the fifth-round pick. The Browns may have something here with Sanders, and teammates sure seem to respond to him the right way. Against the 49ers on Sunday, Sanders is a low-end QB2 so most Fantasy GMs will be in 'wait-and-see' mode with the young passer. |

Cleveland Browns QB Bailey Zappe reverted back to the practice squad Monday, Nov. 24, after being on the active roster for the Week 12 game.
Link to storyShedeur Sanders will start at quarterback in Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski announced Monday.
| Footballguys view: Sanders will remain the starter even though Dillon Gabriel has cleared the concussion protocol, Stefanski said. With Gabriel sidelined, Sanders completed 11 of 20 passes for 209 yards with one touchdown and an interception in the Browns' 24-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday in his first NFL start. The victory ended a 17-game losing streak for the Browns in games with a quarterback making his first career start. That was the longest streak by any franchise since 1950, when QB starts were first recorded. |
Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett posted five total stops, including four of the solo variety, with three sacks, four tackles for loss and a game-high six quarterback hits. He has 18 sacks on the season, 4.5 short of the NFL record with six games remaining.
