Jerry Jeudy WR CLE

Jerry Jeudy Falls Flat Without Jameis Winston

Jerry Jeudy Falls Flat Without Jameis Winston

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 TE David Njoku (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, so there’s elevated risk of limited snaps and/or re-injury. Njoku also gets a QB downgrade in Dorian Thompson-Robinson. He’d be a shaky Week 16 fantasy start.

Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. Njoku will be at less than 100% and trying to catch passes from QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson if he ends up playing. We’d try to look elsewhere for Week 16 fantasy lineups.

Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. "He’s pushing himself, he’s trying to get there," HC Kevin Stefanski said of Njoku's status for this weekend's game vs. the Bengals. We'll see if he's able to get back on the practice field tomorrow, but fantasy owners should be lining up an alternative for Week 16.

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.
