The Browns have ruled out S John Johnson III (hamstring), S Ronnie Harrison (ankle) and slot CB Troy Hill (knee) for Monday night's game against the Steelers. Losing both safety starters and their slot corner obviously weakens the Cleveland secondary, adding upside to Steelers passing-game pieces.
The Browns on Monday activated RB Kareem Hunt off the COVID list. He likely would have missed the Week 16 game with an ankle sprain anyway, and we'll have to watch that situation to see whether Hunt will be ready to play next Monday night at Pittsburgh. Cleveland also activated DE Jadeveon Clowney and S Ronnie Harrison -- among others -- from the COVID list, which should clear them to play Week 17.
Browns DE Myles Garrett is active for today's game against the Packers. He figures to be affected by the groin injury that kept him from practicing this week, but it's tough to sit an active Garrett in IDP leagues.
Browns DE Myles Garrett is questionable for Saturday's game against the Packers after missing practice all week. "I feel like I'll play regardless of how I feel," Garrett said Thursday, according to Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot. "I haven't practiced, so we'll see. But I'm going to go out there and give my all." We'll see about Garrett's official status Saturday around 3 p.m. ET.
Browns S John Johnson III came off the COVID list Monday morning, clearing him to play against the Raiders. That’s a key return for the Cleveland defense but not a big factor for IDP lineups
The Browns on Friday added DE Jadeveon Clowney to the COVID list after he tested positive. That will knock him out of Saturday's game against the Raiders. It's not clear who will fill in for Clowney, as the only DE remaining on the active roster is Myles Garrett. Porter Gustin, Joe Jackson and Curtis Weaver are candidates on the practice squad.
Browns S Ronnie Harrison (knee) is inactive for today's game against the Ravens. Cleveland will also miss CB Greg Newsome, who suffered a concussion at the end of Friday's practice. Grant Delpit and Greedy Williams will enter the starting lineup in their places. DT Malik Jackson (knee) is active.
Browns LB Anthony Walker will miss today's game against the Ravens on the COVID list. Malcolm Smith is expected to start in his place. Smith will carry some IDP upside, but Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah is the top play among Cleveland LBs.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski says rookie LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah re-injured the ankle Sunday that had previously cost him 3 games, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. We'll see how long the team expects to miss JOK this time.
Browns rookie LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (ankle) is active for today's game against the Patriots. It'll mark his return from 3 games on IR, so it's difficult to know just how much the rookie will play. CB Greedy Williams (shoulder) is inactive for the game.
The Browns have designated LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah to return from IR. That opens a 3-week practice window for the team to determine whether/when to return the rookie to the active roster. JOK is coming off a high-ankle sprain. We'll see about his progression through this return to the field.
Browns DE Jadeveon Clowney (ankle, knee) and CB Denzel Ward (hamstring) are active for today's game against the Bengals.
Browns DE Jadeveon Clowney (ankle, knee) and CB Denzel Ward (hamstring) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals. Clowney played through a questionable tag for the same issues last week. Ward put in limited practices after sitting out Week 8. We'll check their statuses Sunday.
Browns S John Johnson III left in the 1st half of Sunday's loss to the Steelers with a neck injury. S Grant Delpit filled in the rest of the way and should start if Johnson misses further time. Johnson has been a disappointment on the fantasy-scoring front in his 1st Cleveland season, spending far less time "in the box."
Browns DE Jadeveon Clowney (ankle, groin, knee) is active for today's game against the Steelers. He'll be a risky IDP option, though, dealing with multiple injuries that kept him out of practice all week.
The Browns have ruled lead CB Denzel Ward (hamstring) out for Sunday's game against the Steelers. DE Jadeveon Clowney (ankle, groin, knee) is questionable. He played through a questionable tag last week but didn't practice at all this week despite the longer layoff following a Thursday night game. Clowney also replaced a chest issue for Week 7 with the groin this time around. Given the total lack of practice, it's probably better to not use him even if he's active.
Browns DE Jadeveon Clowney is active for tonight's game against the Broncos. He entered questionable with multiple injuries but should be good to go or an upside sack matchup.
