Misses practice Wednesday Newsome (concussion) did not participate at practice Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Impact Newsome sustained a concussion during practice ahead of Cleveland's loss to Buffalo in Week 11, and he now appears to be in jeopardy of missing a second consecutive game with that injury. If the sophomore first-rounder can't go in Week 12, Greedy Williams would likely be in line for fill-in reps on the boundaries.

Accounts for nine tackles Sunday Takitaki recorded nine tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.
Impact Takitaki's nine stops in Week 11 versus Buffalo brings his total up to 56 on the season in that department. The 238-pound linebacker continues playing a prominent role on Cleveland's defensive unit, and that doesn't appear likely to change Sunday against the Buccaneers.

Logs double-digit stops in loss Johnson recorded 10 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.
Impact Johnson was one of two Cleveland defenders to play every defensive snap in the Week 11 matchup versus Buffalo, and he posted his first double-digit tackling performance of the 2022-23 campaign this past weekend. Though the 26-year-old safety has yet to record an interception this season, he'll likely continue operating as an every-down player when the Browns host the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Logs season-high 12 tackles Sunday Owusu-Koramoah recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.
Impact Owusu-Koramoah's 12 stops this past weekend represented his first double-digit tackling effort of the 2022-23 campaign, and he ended just one stop shy of matching his career high he set back in Week 12 of last year. The 23-year-old also played his highest snap total (60) in any single game this season despite having missed Cleveland's last two games due to a knee injury. Owusu-Koramoah will now aim to keep momentum churning when the Browns host Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Set for multi-week absence Pocic (knee) is expected to miss multiple contests, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Pocic will be out for "weeks" after suffering a knee injury in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills. The exact details of his injury has yet to be determined but Hjalte Froholdt will likely remain the starting center for the time being with Michael Dunn (back) unavailable.

Has kick blocked York converted one of two field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills in Week 11.
Impact York had a 34-yard attempt blocked, the third time in four weeks a field goal was tipped. He leads all kickers with three attempts blocked, which may be an issue the Browns want to investigate. The team may want to determine if there are protection issues on the line, or if York's trajectory is contributing to the blocks. He's also had tries from 53 and 60 yards blocked.

Usage increasing Bell caught four of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-23 loss to Buffalo.
Impact Bell, a third-round pick in 2022, is seeing his role and usage increase as the season rolls on. He's had 10 targets the last two weeks, after totaling 11 over his first eight NFL games, and was on the field for a season-high 64-percent (48 snaps) of the offensive plays. While his four receptions are a season high, Bell was a distant third behind Amari Cooper and Donovan Peoples-Jones in terms of impact. The rookie's high-water mark came in Week 4, when he had 35 yards and his lone reception for more than 20 yards. Bell's growing role does give him some deep-league intrigue with Deshaun Watson potentially boosting the entire Cleveland passing game when he takes over in Week 13.

Inactive again Felton was a healthy inactive for Week 11 against Buffalo.
Impact Felton has just two touches on offense and one as a returner this season. The hybrid back has clearly dropped behind Jerome Ford and is used only when injuries hit at wideout or running back. With Ford and Michael Woods healthy, there's no room for Felton.
NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Limited to return duties Ford returned two kickoffs for 49 yards in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills in Week 11.
Impact Ford has been valuable on special teams, averaging 26.3 yards per return -- third among players with at least 10 returns. Once again, Demetric Felton was inactive, so Ford appears to have that role locked up.
NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Used on special teams only Johnson did not play on offense during Sunday's 31-23 loss to Buffalo.
Impact Johnson's usage as a running back has decreased significantly, as both Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt have stayed healthy. He popped for 534 yards (5.3 YPC) when given an opportunity in 2021, but those that speculated on him in 2022 have been disappointed.
NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Quiet day in loss Hunt carried five times for 32 yards and caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.
Impact Buffalo stifled the Browns' vaunted rushing attack, although Hunt found some room on his limited touches as a runner. While it's been mainly the Nick Chubb show in the backfield, a gifted receiver like Hunt could experience a renaissance when Deshaun Watson becomes available starting in Week 13.
NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Receives seven targets in loss Bryant caught four of seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.
Impact Bryant once again led all Cleveland tight ends in playing time (55 snaps, 73 percent) en route to a season high in targets, as David Njoku (28 snaps, 37 percent) had his workload managed in his return from an ankle injury that cost him two games. Njoku could regain his usual role in next week's home game against Tampa Bay however, pushing Bryant back down the depth chart.
