INJURIES

Cedric Tillman - Likely to move into starting role Tillman is expected to move into a regular role in three-receiver sets after the Browns traded Amari Cooper to the Bills on Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Impact Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore (ribs) remain ahead of him on the depth chart and will likely rank as higher priorities in the passing game, but Tillman should move into a starting role for Cleveland with Cooper no longer in the mix. Through the Browns' first six games, Tillman had mustered just three catches for nine yards on five targets while playing 114 total snaps on offense. Even though his playing time is expected to rise, Tillman still looks to be largely off the fantasy radar with struggling quarterback Deshaun Watson having yet to complete more than 25 passes or clear 200 passing yards in any game this season.

Jerry Jeudy - Ascends to No. 1 role Jeudy is expected to become the Browns' new No. 1 wide receiver after Cleveland traded Amari Cooper to Buffalo on Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Impact Through the Browns' first six games, Jeudy recorded just four fewer catches (20) and two fewer receiving yards (248) than Cooper, but the trade clears the way for Jeudy to serve as Cleveland's clear top wideout. With Cooper out of the mix, Jeudy and fellow wideouts Elijah Moore (ribs), Cedric Tillman as well as tight end David Njoku could see their involvement pick up to varying degrees, though poor quarterback play from Deshaun Watson could cap the upside for each of those pass catchers.

No debate: Why the NFC North is easily the NFL's best division this season

Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah - Productive in loss Owusu-Koramoah registered seven tackles (three solo), with 1.0 sack, in Cleveland's loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Impact Owusu-Koramoah finished second on the team in tackles and also recorded their only sack of Jalen Hurts. The 24-year-old has now logged a sack in back-to-back games bringing his total on the season to 2.0.

Grant Delpit - Still in concussion protocol Delpit is still in concussion protocol following Sunday's game at Philadelphia, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Delpit sat out of the Browns' contest in Week 6 as he dealt with a concussion, and now his availability for Week 7 appears to be in jeopardy. Cleveland's first official practice report of the week Wednesday should provide some clarity on his status.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jerome Ford - Deemed week-to-week by coach Ford (hamstring) is considered week-to-week, coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Ford was injured in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles. He's unlikely to play in Week 7 against the Bengals, though more information on that front will surface when the Browns resume practicing Wednesday. Cleveland is well positioned to weather a potential absence from Ford, as Nick Chubb (knee) is on track to come off IR and make his season debut against Cincinnati, plus the Browns have D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong in the backfield.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Dustin Hopkins - Contributes 10 points in loss Hopkins converted three of four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles.
Impact Hopkins' lone miss came from 52 yards, a kick made longer after Cedric Tillman lost five yards on a 3rd-and-1 end-around. The game was tied, 10-10, early in the third quarter at the time and could have altered the trajectory of the game had Hopkins nailed it. Cleveland's mess of an offense through six games has impacted Hopkins, who averaged 8.2 per game in 2023 but stands at 6.2 ppg through six contests this season.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Cedric Tillman - One touch in loss Tillman was not targeted and had one carry for minus-5 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.
Impact Tillman's lone touch came on a 3rd-and-1 on the Eagles' side of the field and resulted in a longer field-goal attempt for Dustin Hopkins, who was wide right from 52 yards Tillman, who went untargeted for a third consecutive week, could grab a larger slice of the target pie in Week 7 depending on the status of Elijah Moore (ribs).
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jaelon Darden - One catch in loss Darden caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles in Week 6. He also returned two punts for 26 yards.
Impact Darden was activated from the practice squad for the second time this season after the Browns released James Proche on Saturday. Darden finished with seven snaps on offense and could be in line for a role as the primary returner, if Cleveland signs him to the active roster. He has experience returning both kicks and punts during all four seasons of his NFL career.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Akins - Five snaps in loss Akins was untargeted over five snaps in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.
Impact David Njoku finally stayed healthy for a full game, which was expected to limit Akins' involvement, but his severely reduced snap count was surprising. Geoff Swaim, a free agent that was added to the practice squad after Week 1, had the second-most snaps (19) behind Njoku's 42.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jerry Jeudy - Another one-touch game Jeudy caught one of three targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles in Week 6.
Impact Jeudy was held to just one catch for the second consecutive game and has just six targets over the last two weeks. By now, it's become evident that Cleveland's offense is a mess, and quarterback Deshaun Watson is part of the problem. For a silver lining, Nick Chubb (knee) is due back Week 7, which could bring some harmony to the offense and have an impact on Jeudy the rest of the pass-catchers.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
D'Onta Foreman - Backfield touch leader in loss Foreman rushed 10 times for 31 yards and caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.
Impact Starter Jerome Ford left the game after just four snaps with a hamstring injury, leaving the bulk of the backfield duties to Foreman and Pierre Strong (10 touches). Foreman's 12 touches (20 snaps) led the backfield while Strong (30 snaps) was on the field more often. Ford's status for Week 7's tilt against the Bengals may not matter much to Foreman or Strong, as the Browns anticipate Nick Chubb (knee) being ready.

David Njoku - Team-high five grabs in loss Njoku caught five of seven targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles.
Impact The tight end led the Browns in catches and targets, but the volume didn't amount to much with quarterback Deshaun Watson still not showing much of an ability to stretch the field. Coach Kevin Stefanski is sticking with Watson under center, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, which could at least give Njoku a solid PPR floor as long as he can stay healthy. He'll try to build on this effort in Week 7 against the Bengals.

Amari Cooper - Makes little impact Sunday Cooper caught four of six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles.
Impact The continued struggles of quarterback Deshaun Watson dragged down Cooper's numbers, but the veteran wideout still led the Browns in receiving yards despite the fact that he saw his lowest target volume of the year so far. With Cleveland at 1-5 and seemingly headed for a lost season, trade rumors have begun circling around Cooper, and his 19-223-2 line over the last four games is respectable considering his situation. Cooper will try to take advantage of a vulnerable Bengals secondary in Week 7.

Pierre Strong Jr. - Leading rusher in loss Strong carried the ball eight times for 43 yards and caught two of three targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Eagles.
Impact Jerome Ford (hamstring) left the game early, and Strong wound up leading the Browns in rushing yards on the afternoon while also falling just seven receiving yards shy of Amari Cooper for the team lead in that category as well. While it was Strong's best performance of the season, he may not get much of a chance to repeat it with Nick Chubb (knee) expected to return to action in Week 7 against the Bengals.
