David Njoku "Unlikely" To Play Week 3

Browns HC Kevin Stefanski confirmed on Wednesday that TE David Njoku is "unlikely" to play vs. the Giants this weekend. Njoku's Week 1 high-ankle sprain was always likely to cost him multiple games. We'd consider him no better than 50/50 to play Week 4.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

TE Jordan Akins ran a route on just 53% of pass plays last week, finishing with one catch on one target for 10 yards. He's not a viable Week 3 fantasy play.

WR Elijah Moore seemingly benefitted from Njoku's absence, tying for the team lead with eight targets in the win over Jacksonville. Moore sits 52nd in the Week 3 WR Rankings.
