Impact The fifth-round rookie has yet to play a snap through two games and was a healthy inactive for Week 2 against Jacksonville.

Cleared to play Sunday Ward (shoulder/toe) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants and is expected to play, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Ward got in a round of limited practices this week and is good to go ahead of Sunday's matchup with Malik Nabers. Through two games, Ward has one tackle (one solo) and four pass breakups.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Sunday Garrett (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants and is expected to play, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Garrett is dealing with some pain in his foot and didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday before getting in a limited session Friday. Garrett said he felt good after Friday's work and is ready to go versus New York. Through two games, Garrett has five tackles (five solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles.

Set to remain starter Week 3 Akins is set to operate as Cleveland's top tight end again Sunday against the Giants, as David Njoku (ankle) has been ruled out for a second consecutive game.
Impact Akins had just one target and actually handled a lower snap share (49 percent) in Njoku's absence Week 2 than he did in the season opener, when Njoku exited early and Akins proceeded to catch three of four targets for 27 yards while playing 57 percent of snaps on offense. Blake Whiteheart was elevated from the practice squad to provide depth behind Akins last week, and Whiteheart could be elevated again for Sunday's game.

Won't play Sunday Njoku (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Giants, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Njoku wasn't able to practice this week, and will thus miss his second straight game. In the tight end's continued absence, Jordan Akins is in line to see added snaps versus New York, while Cameron Latu, Geoff Swaim and Blake Whiteheart are potential practice-squad elevations ahead of Week 3 action.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for Week 3 Strong (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Strong pulled his hamstring in the Browns' Week 2 win over the Jaguars and didn't practice all week. With Strong set to miss Sunday's contest, the Browns are expected to ride their backfield tandem of D'Onta Foreman and Jerome Ford in a favorable spot as home favorites.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Still not practicing Njoku (ankle) remained sidelined at Friday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski acknowledged Wednesday that Njoku is unlikely to play Sunday against the Giants, so the tight end's continued absence from practice isn't surprising. Friday's injury report will reveal if Njoku heads into the weekend with any chance of suiting up for Week 3 action.

Has favorable Week 3 matchup Ford has a favorable Week 3 matchup against the Giants, who rank 28th in rushing yards allowed, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact The Browns have had a couple of disjointed offensive efforts to open the season, and the winless Giants present an opportunity to fix the issues. Ford, who had just 19 carries in the first two weeks, could get that many touches this week. The Browns, which has considered the ground game central to their plan, rank 21st in rushing yards (109.0 ypg) after two games.

Makes progress Thrash (illness) was a limited participant during practice Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Thrash wasn't able to practice at all Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the rookie. However, even if he regains full health in time for Sunday's matchup with the Giants, there's no guarantee he'll play, as the Louisville product has been a healthy scratch in each of the Browns' first two games.

Misses practice Thursday Strong (hamstring) is not practicing Thursday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Strong has missed back-to-back practices since suffering a hamstring injury during Cleveland's win over the Jaguars in Week 2. Coach Kevin Stefanski has labeled Strong week-to-week, so he looks like an unlikely candidate to return in time for Sunday's game against the Giants. When Strong manages to retake the field, he figures to resume working behind Jerome Ford and D'Onta Foreman in the Browns' backfield.
SEPTEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Sits out another practice Njoku (ankle) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Njoku hasn't practiced in any fashion since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Browns' Week 1 loss to the Cowboys, and he looks to be trending toward a second straight missed game Sunday against the Giants. Before officially ruling him out for Week 3, the Browns will wait and see what, if anything, Njoku can do during Friday's practice.

Limited Wednesday Ward (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Ward still appears to be dealing with the shoulder injury that limited him during the Browns' Week 2 win over the Jaguars. If the issue prevents Ward from suiting up for Cleveland's Week 3 matchup with the Giants, expect Cameron Mitchell and Kahlef Hailassie to see increased work with the Browns' first-team defense.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Full go Wednesday Conklin (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Conklin was able to practice in full for the first time since tearing his ACL in Cleveland's 2023 regular-season opener Wednesday. With Conklin appearing to have moved his knee injury, he's expected to assume the Browns' top right tackle duties for the remainder of the season.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Misses Wednesday's practice Garrett (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Garrett played through a foot injury during Cleveland's Week 2 contest and told reporters that he doesn't "feel great" after the win, so it's no surprise he's absent from Wednesday's practice. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his availability for Week 3, though Garrett will likely play through the injury regardless.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not practicing Strong (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Strong is considered week-to-week after injuring his hamstring in Sunday's 18-13 win over Jacksonville. Strong thus figures to miss at least one game, leaving Cleveland's backfield in the hands of Jerome Ford and D'Onta Foreman, both of whom worked ahead of Strong this past Sunday in any case.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not practicing Njoku (ankle) isn't practicing Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact As expected, after coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday morning that Njoku is unlikely to play Sunday against the Giants. Njoku injured his ankle Week 1 and didn't practice or play Week 2, leaving Jordan Akins and Blake Whiteheart to rotate at tight end in an 18-13 win over the Jaguars this past Sunday.
