The Browns have fired OC Ken Dorsey, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Cleveland ranks 28th in yards and dead last in points through 17 weeks. Despite shoddy QB play, the Browns lead the league in pass attempts and pass rate. We'll see if HC Kevin Stefanski keeps his job for 2025.
The Browns will start QB Bailey Zappe for Saturday's finale against the Ravens, according to multiple reports. That doesn't necessarily mean we won't see Dorian Thompson-Robinson, though.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski said Tuesday that "there's a chance" he plays both QBs Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Bailey Zappe in Saturday's finale vs. the Ravens. QB Jameis Winston continues to work through a shoulder injury and is expected to be the No. 3 QB. Thompson-Robinson has been predictably awful the past two weeks, completing 54% of his passes at 4.0 yards per attempt with 0 TDs and three INTs. Any playing time for Zappe would be good news for Browns pass catchers, although he's no world-beater either. Zappe owns a career 63% completion rate and 6.8 yards per attempt.
The forecast for this afternoon's Dolphins-Browns game calls for sustained winds of 15-25 mph with gusts over 35. There's a chance for rain during the second half, but the winds are the real story here. They figure to impact the passing and kicking games. With Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center for their respective teams, this figures to be a low-scoring, run-heavy affair.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. He’s now missed five games in concussion protocol. Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore will remain Cleveland’s top two WRs this weekend, but they’re shaky fantasy bets with QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson.
With QB Jameis Winston benched for Dorian Thompson-Robinson, WR Jerry Jeudy’s massive production boost dropped off. He caught two of three targets for only 20 yards. With Thompson-Robinson opting for short passes to TE David Njoku and RB Jerome Ford, Jeudy had little to work with.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He was limited in practice all week but still hasn't cleared protocol. Tillman's absence helps the target projections on WRs Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore, but they remain shaky fantasy plays with QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson taking over for QB Jameis Winston.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson will be the starting QB this week against the Bengals. QB Jameis Winston was benched against the Chiefs after throwing three interceptions, replaced by Thompson-Robinson. The Browns will get another look at the young QB this week.
Browns WR Jerry Jeudy caught 11 of his 14 targets for 108 yards in the Browns’ loss to the Chiefs today. With WR Cedric Tillman still out, along with TE David Njoku missing the game, Jeudy was again the target hog with a 43.75% target share.
The forecast for today’s Chiefs-Browns game calls for a 60% chance of rain with sustained winds of 15 mph and gusts up around 30 mph. That’s enough wind to impact the passing and kicking games. Throw in the likelihood of rain and we’re looking at tough conditions. We’ve bumped down our passing projections for both teams and would avoid the kickers from this game. Check out the updated Week 15 Rankings to see where all the Chiefs and Browns land.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs. He returned to limited practices this week but still hasn't cleared protocol. Michael Woods will likely serve as the No. 3 WR for the third straight game, but he's totaled just four catches on eight targets over the last two weeks. Tillman's continued absence is good news for WRs Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Steelers. Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore will continue to operate as Cleveland’s top two WRs and are nice volume bets. Michael Woods operated as the No. 3 WR last week but would be a desperation fantasy play.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He's now a long shot to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers. Michael Woods finished third among Cleveland WRs in routes last week, catching three of five targets for 43 yards. He'd be a desperation Week 14 fantasy play. Tillman's absence leaves extra targets for Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore, and David Njoku.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Broncos. He didn't practice all week, which is surprising considering he's now nine days removed from his concussion. We'll see if he can get cleared for next weekend's game vs. the Steelers. Tillman's absence this week figures to leave Jamari Thrash as Cleveland's No. 3 WR. We could see more 2-TE sets with Jordan Akins on the field for the Browns. Ultimately, Tillman's absence just means added target upside for WR Jerry Jeudy, WR Elijah Moore, and TE David Njoku.
Browns WR Cedric Tillman (concussion) remained sidelined on Friday. HC Kevin Stefanski said that he’s not yet ruling Tillman out for Monday night’s game vs. the Broncos, but he’s a long shot to be cleared in time for that one. Rookie WR Jamari Thrash was the primary replacement for Tillman last week but would be a desperation fantasy start. Tillman’s absence should mean more targets for WR Jerry Jeudy, WR Elijah Moore, and TE David Njoku.
Browns WR Jerry Jeudy caught six balls for 85 yards in Thursday night's upset win over the Steelers. It was an excellent result considering the conditions. The first half was played in significant wind; the second in heavy snow. Jeudy accounted for 39% of QB Jameis Winston's 219 passing yards. His six targets led the team and were a 22% share. Jeudy didn't seem limited by the weather, creating separation throughout the night and catching all of his targets. He made key grabs to convert a 4th-and-3 and a 3rd-and-6 on Cleveland's game-winning drive in the fourth quarter.
The forecast for tonight's Steelers-Browns game calls for temperatures just above freezing, 85% chance of precipitation, and winds of 15-20 mph with gusts of 25-30 mph. That's ugly. Expect an even run-heavier game plan from the Steelers than usual and for the Browns to run more than they typically do. And don't expect many points. This game has 36.5-point over/under. We'd avoid both QBs and kickers in the game and downgrade the WRs. See where all the Steelers and Browns sit in the updated Week 12 Rankings.
