Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku ended up with nine receptions for 52 yards and two touchdowns on 17 targets in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos.
Huddle Up: Njoku has recorded nine or more receptions in three of his past six games, and five or more grabs in six of the previous seven outings. He has jelled nicely with QB Jameis Winston, and he can safely he used as a low-end TE1 in most fantasy leagues of 12 or fewer teams heading into Week 14 at Pittsburgh.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku had one reception (on five targets) for nine yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday, Nov. 21. He also caught a two-point conversion.
Huddle Up: Njoku flat out dropped what should've been a sure tuddy, which preceded Jameis Winston running for a touchdown on fourth down. Put bluntly, the former University of Miami (Fl.) standout didn't seem to handle the conditions well. Given that this performance comes after a four-week span in which Njoku totaled 29 receptions, 247 yards, and 2 TDs, you should feel OK calling it an outlier and being ready to plug him back into your TE1 slot next week in Denver.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) practiced in full on Wednesday, Nov. 20, after being limited the two days prior and carries no designation for Week 12.
Huddle Up: Njoku is coming off one of his best games of the 2024 campaign when he tallied his second-most receptions (nine) and most receiving yards (81) in a single game this season. Consider Njoku a TE1 play in Week 12.

Cleveland Browns TE Geoff Swaim (concussion) did not take part in practice on Wednesday, Nov. 20, and was ruled out for Week 12.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) was limited in practice for a second consecutive day on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
Huddle Up: Njoku has been a fantasy stud since the team traded Amari Cooper and inserted Jameis Winston as the starting quarterback. He has caught at least five passes in four straight games, topped 61 yards in three of them and scored twice. Although the Pittsburgh Steelers are a middling matchup for tight ends, Njoku should be starting in most leagues for Thursday's AFC North tilt.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) was limited during practice Monday, Nov. 18. The Browns did not hold a practice Monday, so this is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Njoku should be able to play this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but fantasy players will know more in a few days. He posted a season-high 81 yards in the last game and can be a No. 1 tight end in most fantasy leagues.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku ended up with nine receptions for 81 yards on nine targets in Week 11 against the New Orleans Saints.
Huddle Up: The nine catches were his most since Week 7 against the Cincinnati Bengals, and the yardage total was his highest of the season. He remains a solid low-end TE1 in most fantasy leagues heading into Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku is receiving interest from other teams leading up to the trade deadline, but the Browns are considered highly unlikely to trade him, according to sources.
Huddle Up: Njoku has played well over the last few seasons but has struggled with some injuries in 2024. He will still see a good amount of targets if he stays with the Browns and can be a low-end No. 1 tight end most weeks.
Posted: 11/03/2024 9:10 pm GMT
Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku had five receptions for 29 yards on seven targets in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Huddle Up: The catch total was good, but the yardage total certainly wasn't great. His modest two-game touchdown streak came to a conclusion, too, and the yardage total was his lowest since Week 5 in his first game back from a multi-week injury. Still, he can be trusted as a low-end TE1 most weeks in fantasy football, but you'll need to make alternate plans in Week 10 with the team on a bye.
