Insider Michael Silver reports that Browns HC Kevin Stefanski told his team today that WR Odell Beckham is "essentially not on the team right now." Stefanski didn't reveal much in his press conference, only confirming that Beckham was excused from Wednesday's practice and that the 2 haven't spoken over the past 24 hours. We'll continue to keep an eye on this situation, but it sure seems like Beckham's time with the Browns might be over. His absence would leave Jarvis Landry, Rashard Higgins and Donovan Peoples-Jones as Cleveland's top 3 WRs. (Peoples-Jones is expected to return to practice from his groin injury today.)
Browns WR Odell Beckham was excused from Wednesday's practice, USA Today's Josina Anderson reports. We have no other details at this point. Beckham was the subject of trade rumors leading up to Tuesday's deadline. And his father made social-media waves by posting a video of plays when QB Baker Mayfield missed or failed to throw to an open Beckham. We'll see where this goes. HC Kevin Stefanski is scheduled to address the media at 1 pm ET today.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Steelers. He was limited in practice all week. With both Beckham and his QB playing through shoulder injuries, he’s a shaky fantasy option.
Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr. "should be good to go today" vs. the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Beckham is dealing with an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder, but he played through it in last Thursday night's win over Denver.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Steelers. He was limited in practice all week. We’re expecting Beckham to play, but he’s a shaky fantasy option with both he and his QB dealing with shoulder injuries.
The forecast for tonight's Broncos-Browns game calls for sustained winds up to 20 mph and gusts around 30 mph. That's enough to impact some longer throws and kicks -- and another reason to expect this to be a low-scoring game.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) is active for tonight's game against the Broncos. It's a surprise after reports over the past 24 hours that Beckham has a Grade 3 AC joint injury and was facing an "uphill battle" to play tonight. He might be limited and is at risk of re-injuring that shoulder.
NFL Network's James Palmer hears that it'll be an "uphill battle" for Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) to play vs. the Broncos tonight. Beckham is reportedly dealing with a Grade 3 AC joint injury. His status beyond Week 7 is uncertain. WR Jarvis Landry, meanwhile, has a "very good chance" to be activated from IR and return from his knee injury tonight, according to Palmer. There would be targets up for grabs with Beckham out. But Landry would be a risky fantasy play in his first game back and with Case Keenum under center.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Broncos. He didn't practice at all this week. Insider Josina Anderson reports that Beckham suffered a Grade 3 AC joint injury -- the most severe -- in last week's loss to the Cardinals. He's reportedly going to try to play through it and is a game-time decision for tomorrow night. Between his shoulder injury and QB Baker Mayfield's absence, Beckham is an extremely shaky Week 7 fantasy play.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that QB Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Broncos and that QB Case Keenum will get the start. "Baker obviously wants to be out there but just couldn’t make it on a short week," Stefanski said. “We know he will continue to do everything in his power to return as quickly as possible." We'll see if Mayfield can make it back for Week 8. Keenum, meanwhile, will make his 1st start since Week 17 of the 2019 season. The 33-year-old has 62 career starts under his belt and sports a 62.3% completion rate, 6.9 yards-per-attempt average and 75 TDs vs. 47 INTs. Keenum is a capable backup but still a downgrade from Mayfield.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) did not practice on Tuesday. He played through this injury last week, so we're expecting him to be out there for Thursday night's game vs. Denver. But check back tomorrow for another update.
Browns WR Odell Beckham injured his right shoulder in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. He was in obvious pain on the sidelines before heading back to the locker room with trainers. Stay tuned for an update.
Update: Beckham returned in the 3rd quarter.
Today's Cardinals-Browns game is expected to see 20 mph sustained winds with gusts around 30 mph. We saw a couple of windy games in Cleveland disappoint for fantasy purposes last season. Today isn't quite as windy as those, but the passing and kicks games still figure to be impacted. We certainly wouldn't be benching guys like Kyler Murray or DeAndre Hopkins. But use the weather as a tiebreaker if you're considering more fringy passing-game options from these teams.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (knee) isn't listed on the final injury report after putting in a full week of practice. ESPN's Dan Graziano confirmed on Friday morning that OBJ is on track to make his 2021 debut vs. the Bears this weekend, barring a setback between now and then. OC Alex Van Pelt suggested that Beckham will be on some type of snap count on Sunday. But, especially with WR Jarvis Landry out, Beckham could still see plenty of volume. Consider him a risk/reward WR3 for this week.
