Browns TE David Njoku suffered a knee injury on a TD catch in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Titans. He's officially questionable to return. Njoku had fallen way behind TE Harold Fannin in the pecking order, but his absence can't be bad news for the rookie.

The forecast for today's 49ers-Browns game calls for sustained winds of 25 mph with gusts around 35 mph. The total in this game has dropped from 42.5 to 35.5. Expect a run-heavy game plan from both sides. RBs Christian McCaffrey and Quinshon Judkins can stay in fantasy lineups. TE George Kittle is the only comfortable play from either passing game. Avoid the kickers.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is not listed on the final injury report for this weekend’s game vs. the Raiders. He put in a full practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days. Njoku has run a route on just 52% of pass plays and totaled four targets over the last two weeks, so he’s not a viable fantasy play.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. "I’d say day-to-day, but he’s working hard," HC Kevin Stefanski said when asked about Njoku. With just four targets over his last two games and a declining route rate, Njoku has just about fallen off the fantasy radar. But his absence vs. the Raiders this weekend would be a boost for TE Harold Fannin.

The forecast for today's Ravens-Browns game calls for sustained winds around 25 mph with gusts between 30-35 mph. That figures to impact play-calling, as well as deep throws and longer kicks. Hopefully you weren't relying too heavily on Cleveland's passing game here, although TEs Harold Fannin and David Njoku could be ok as short-range targets. We're downgrading Baltimore's passing game, but QB Lamar Jackson, WR Zay Flowers, and TE Mark Andrews remain fine fantasy starts. Avoid the kickers in this game. The over/under has dropped from 39.5 on Thursday to 38.5.

One week after scoring exactly zero fantasy points, Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy finally had a solid fantasy outing--after the vast majority of fantasy managers had benched him. Taking advantage of a new-look Jets' defense that traded off their top run stopper and coverage CB, Jeudy caught 6 balls for a season-high 78 yards and scored his first TD of the season. However, it wasn't enough as the Browns handed the Jets their second win of the season by allowing a pair of special teams TDs in a 27-20 loss.

Browns TE Harold Fannin was added to the injury report with a hamstring and did not practice on Thursday. We don't have any other details, but the rookie's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Jets is now in question. Fannin's absence would turn David Njoku into a borderline TE1. We'll update the situation tomorrow.

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.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He was limited in practice all week after missing Week 7. Try to keep Njoku on fantasy benches this week. But his return dings TE Harold Fannin’s playing time and target projections.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots. Njoku would be a shaky fantasy play coming off the injury and splitting work with TE Harold Fannin. But his return would knock Fannin down the TE rankings. We’ll look for more updates on Njoku and get Cleveland’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Kevin Stefanski labeled Njoku "day to day," adding that he's "hopeful" he'll be able to play vs. the Patriots this weekend. We'll keep tabs on his progress over the next few days. Njoku's return would make he and Harold Fannin fringe TE1s in a week with six teams on bye.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. He didn’t practice all week, and his status for Week 8 and beyond remains uncertain. The Browns do get a Week 9 bye. Njoku’s absence on Sunday should mean an expanded role for TE Harold Fannin. He looks like a nice Week 7 fantasy play in a plus matchup. We’ll just need to keep an eye on the weather in Cleveland. The current forecast calls for impactful winds.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. He briefly tried to play through this injury last week but ultimately exited the game for good. We're not expecting Njoku to play vs. the Dolphins this weekend, which would turn TE Harold Fannin into a very viable fantasy starter.

Browns TE David Njoku suffered a thigh injury in the second half of Sunday's game vs. the Steelers and is questionable to return. We'll update his status when we know more. TE Harold Fannin figures to pick up extra routes for however long Njoku is out.

Update: HC Kevin Stefanski said after Sunday's game that Njoku has a knee injury but didn't provide any other details. We should learn more on Monday.

The Browns are expected to start QB Dillon Gabriel vs. the Vikings this weekend, according to CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz. QB Joe Flacco has been worse than expected through four weeks, ranking dead last among 33 qualifying QBs in completion rate (58.1%), yards per attempt (5.1), and passer rating (60.3). The Browns are averaging 14 points per game -- ahead of only the Titans.

Browns rookie TE Harold Fannin Jr. managed just 2 catches for 24 yards in Sunday's loss to the Lions. But his six targets tied for second on the team, and Fannin played a season-high 85% of the offensive snaps, according to Pro Football Focus. That included Fannin playing one snap more than TE David Njoku for the first time and beating him by one route (also for the first time).

Browns WR Cedric Tillman suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and has been ruled out. We'll update his status when we know more, but expect this to be a multi-week injury. Tillman's absence will free up snaps for rookie WR Isaiah Bond, and potentially mean more targets for WR Jerry Jeudy and TEs David Njoku and Harold Fannin.

The Browns have named QB Joe Flacco their starter to open the season. He beat out Kenny Pickett for the job, while rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders were never serious threats. Flacco’s presence should be a boost for the Browns’ WRs and TEs compared with the alternatives.

Browns TE Harold Fannin was held out of Saturday's preseason game, alongside QB Joe Flacco, WR Jerry Jeudy, TE David Njoku and a bunch of other presumed starters. "All are primed for starting or significant roles," ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi tweeted.

Browns rookie TE Harold Fannin Jr. “could be primed for a large role” in 2025, per reporter Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Oyefusi expects the Browns to run more two-TE sets this season.
