Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson rushed 10 times for 32 yards in Week 18 against the Cincinnati Bengals, while adding two receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Sampson has some upside heading into 2026, especially early in the season, as rookie Quinshon Judkins suffered a gruesome injury late in the season, and it's likely he won't ready for the start of the new campaign. As it stands, Sampson would have some fantasy appeal, but it all depends on if the Browns elect to bring in more veteran help or add personnel via the draft.

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (hand) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and is not on the injury report for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Sampson received a majority of the carries last week but did not have much success in the running game. He will probably share playing time with Raheim Sanders again this week but could be a possible flex option in some fantasy leagues.

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (hand) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: With Quinshon Judkins injured, Sampson could end the year on a high note when he faces the Cincinnati Bengals. That being said, the rookie hasn't shown enough overall to be more than the backup to Judkins to open 2026.

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. (groin), TE David Njoku (knee, non-injury) and LB Carson Schwesinger (quadriceps, ankle) did not practice Thursday, Jan. 1. DE Myles Garrett (hip), DT Michael Hall Jr. (knee), OG Teven Jenkins (concussion), C Kingsley Eguakun (knee, shoulder), OG Joel Bitonio (wrist), S Grant Delpit (Achilles), CB Myles Harden (shoulder), DT Shelby Harris (toe) and LB Winston Reid (back) were limited participants, and RB Dylan Sampson (hand), QB Shedeur Sanders (back, finger), TE Brenden Bates (shoulder), CB Tyson Campbell (shoulder), QB Dillon Gabriel (shoulder), DT Mason Graham (rib) and OT KT Leveston (shoulder) fully participated.

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (hand) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 31.
Huddle Up: Sampson has become the de facto starter with Quinshon Judkins out with an injury, but he struggled to do much with his touches last week. The Bengals present a friendly matchup in the finale, but Sampson should be considered no more than a low-end flex play.

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson carried 11 times for 27 yards in a Week 17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He caught three passes for zero yards.
Huddle Up: With Quinshon Judkins out for the rest of the season with a leg injury, Sampson got his most carries since 12 for 29 yards in the opener. Sampson should remain a backup for the Browns next season and not a factor in fantasy.

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (hand) is officially active for the Week 17 game.
Huddle Up: Sampson is in line for most of the work at running back with Quinshon Judkins and Jerome Ford sidelined and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.
