Browns RB Quinshon Judkins struggled to find running room against the Steelers, going 12-36-0 on the ground and catching no passes. The Browns offense as a whole struggled to move the football, but Judkins had little rushing room all game. Jerome Ford outscored Judkins in PPR leagues with five catches for 13 yards along with 17 rushing yards on two carries.
2025 Fantasy Football Impact
Judkins and Ford both played 40.2% of snaps. Judkins led the rushing, but Ford ran 23 routes to Judkins’ 16, leading to the bigger receiving day.
Dylan Sampson played 18.3% of snaps but did catch both of his targets.
The game shows the red flags of Judkins’ fantasy profile. He isn’t the primary pass catching RB, so if the rushing isn’t working, it will lead to a fantasy dud.
The Browns playing from behind certainly didn’t help.
Judkins should still settle as an RB2 in most weeks, but temper expectations moving forward, especially in PPR leagues.
