The Cleveland Browns haven't won in New England in 33 years, but at least both of their TEs found the end zone in Week 8. Harold Fannin Jr. and David Njoku combined to account for 99 of Cleveland's 156 passing yards and both TDs in Cleveland's 32-13 loss.
QB Dillon Gabriel completed 21 of his 35 throws but only mustered 156 passing yards. He threw multiple scores for just the second time but also tossed his first 2 INTs of his career.
Harold Fannin Jr. led the Browns in all receiving categories. He hauled in 6 of his 8 targets for 62 yards and scored his second TD of the season. The third-round rookie has now topped double-digit fantasy points in three of his last four games.
After sitting out Week 7 with a knee injury, David Njoku secured 4-of-5 target for 37 yards and also scored his second TD.
Cleveland continues to lead the NFL, lining up in 12 personnel on 45.4% of their snaps. And for good reason. The Browns are getting very little production anywhere else.
In Week 8, Cleveland's WRs combined to catch only 2 of their 9 targets for 31 yards.
The RBs hauled in 9 reception but managed just 26 receiving yards. Additionally, standout rookie Quinshon Judkins injured his shoulder in the third quarter and was ruled out.
Cleveland has a bye in Week 9, but if Judkins missed additional time, the Browns will rely even more on their TE tandem.
Fannin should be viewed as a top-10 option moving forward, while Njoku is a solid mid-range TE2 with weekly TE1 upside.
A quick look at the most important matchup data to consider when making Week 10 start/sit decisions, including implied points, projected plays, WR/CB matchups, and adjusted fantasy points allowed.
