Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. His injury reportedly isn't serious, but his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Ravens is in question. RB Dylan Sampson (knee) was also sidelined on Wednesday, despite being designated to return from IR. With RB Raheim Sanders (hip) on IR, Cleveland is down to Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime as the healthy RBs on the active roster.

The Browns placed RB Raheim Sanders on IR with a hip injury suffered in Week 5. He'll miss at least the next 4 games. We don't have any info about his status beyond that, but Sanders can be dropped from all redraft rosters. Cleveland signed RB Audric Estime off the Vikings' practice squad in a corresponding roster move.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is "day to day" with an ankle injury suffered in Sunday's loss to the Jets, HC Todd Monken said Monday. Judkins' right foot was in a walking boot after the game, but it sounds like he dodged a serious injury. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week. Judkins' absence would leave Raheim Sanders as Cleveland's likely lead back, with Jaleel McLaughlin the No. 2.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins' right foot was in a boot following Sunday's loss to the Jets, the Akron Beacon Journal's Chris Easterling reports. There was no update from the team during or after the game. Players are often in boots for precautionary reasons, so this might be a minor issue. But Judkins' status will be worth monitoring closely this coming week. Raheim Sanders has been operating as Cleveland No. 2 RB with Dylan Sampson on IR.

The Browns placed RB Dylan Sampson on IR. We don't have any details on his knee injury or a timeline for return, but Sampson is now out for at least the next 4 games. He can be dropped from most redraft rosters.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins managed just 33 yards on 12 carries in Sunday's lopsided loss to the Jaguars.

Browns RB Dylan Sampson suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He headed back to the locker room and is questionable to return. We'll update Sampson's status when we know more. His absence leaves Cleveland's backfield to Quinshon Judkins and Raheim Sanders.

Update: Sampson has been ruled out.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (leg) appears to be operating at close to 100% at OTAs this week, according to multiple members of Cleveland's media. Judkins is five months removed from suffering a fractured fibula and dislocated ankle. He's clearly on track to be ready for Week 1, and it's looking like that injury won't be a concern for his 2026 fantasy value.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is expected to be sidelined for 4-5 months with the dislocated ankle and fractured fibula he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Bills, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That timeline would put Judkins back on the field in April or May. He'll miss part of the offseason program, but it sounds like he'll be ready for the start of training camp. The injury ultimately shouldn't have much of an impact on his 2026 outlook. Although the efficiency wasn't great this year (3.6 yards per carry), Judkins flashed more than enough -- coupled with his second-round draft capital -- to be a heavy favorite to open next season as Cleveland's lead back.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins suffered a dislocated ankle and a fractured fibula in Sunday’s loss to Buffalo, per HC Kevin Stefanski. Meanwhile, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said after the game that the team is also evaluating the rookie for a knee injury. We'll keep an eye on his recovery timeline, but Judkins is sure to miss at least a chunk of the offseason program. In his place, Cleveland may ride Raheim Sanders and Trayveon Williams. On Sunday, Sanders held the edge in carries (11-3) with Williams leading the backfield in targets (4-1). Note: Jerome Ford is on injured reserve, while rookie Dylan Sampson missed today's game with a hand injury.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins was carted off the field with a right leg injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bills. He was in obvious pain after falling awkwardly at the end of a catch, and the broadcast opted against showing a replay. We'll update Judkins' status when we know more, but this clearly looks like a serious injury.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins went 16-47-2 against the Raiders, averaging just 2.9 yards per carry. The Raiders defense shut down the run for most of he game, but Judkins was able to score on 8- and 2-yard runs early in the game. After those TDs, he did not have much of an impact in the game. He did make multiple trips to the injury tent in the fourth quarter.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is “day to day” with the shoulder injury that knocked him out of yesterday's loss to the Patriots, HC Kevin Stefanski said Monday. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that Judkins has an AC joint sprain. Cleveland gets a Week 9 bye, and it sounds like Judkins has a good chance to be back for Week 10. That makes RB Dylan Sampson just a deep-league stash on waiver wires this week.
