Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) and RB Pierre Strong (hamstring) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 3 against the New York Giants. OT Jack Conklin (knee) and OT Jedrick Wills (knee) were limited in practice on Friday, Sept. 20, and are listed as questionable. DE Za'Darius Smith (back), CB Denzel Ward (shoulder, toe), LS Charley Hughlett (foot), DE Alex Wright (triceps, elbow), DE Myles Garrett (foot) and OT Dawand Jones (knee) were limited in practice on Friday but no longer appear on the injury report. CB Martin Emerson (ankle, shoulder), WR Jerry Jeudy (knee), LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (hand), DE Dalvin Tomlinson (rest) and WR Jamari Thrash (illness) practiced in full on Friday and have also been removed from the injury report.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 3 versus the New York Giants.
Huddle Up: This news should come as no surprise to fantasy managers, as Njoku is only about two weeks out from recovering from an injury that usually sidelines players four to six weeks. Jordan Akins will likely get the nod again, but he would only be a consideration for managers in deep tight end premium leagues.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) did not participate in practice Thursday, Sept. 19.
Huddle Up: It seems like Njoku will be sidelined for another game, so fantasy players will need to find other options for their starting lineups.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) and RB Pierre Strong (hamstring) did not practice for a second straight day on Thursday, Sept. 19.
Huddle Up: Njoku's absence is a much bigger deal than Strong's, although neither DNP is overly surprising. It would be a surprise if either one played in Week 3 against the New York Giants. Jordan Akins will likely draw another start if Njoku is sidelined, although it is more likely that his targets will be spread among Amari Cooper, Elijah Moore and Jerry Jeudy.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 18.
Huddle Up: Njoku is not expected to play in Week 3, but fantasy players can check later in the week to see if he has a better chance to play. Players should have another option ready because of his injury.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) is "unlikely" to play in Week 3, head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Wednesday, Sept. 18.
Huddle Up: This update comes just a few days after Stefanski expressed hope that Njoku would suit up. It's hard to trust any pass-catcher in Cleveland these days, let alone their backup tight end. Look elsewhere for help.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) could return for the Week 3 game against the New York Giants, head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday, Sept. 16.
Huddle Up: Managers may want to avoid Njoku if he's on a pitch count in Week 3, but he's a mid-TE1 option if he has his regular workload.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 13, and has been ruled out for Week 2.
Huddle Up: Jordan Akins likely will be the starting tight end while Njoku is sidelined and probably will see a few targets in the passing game. Fantasy players likely can find better options and can avoid Akins.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) did not practice once again on Thursday, Sept. 12.
Huddle Up: Njoku has already been ruled out for Week 2. The Browns do not have have a viable starting option behind him on the depth chart, so fantasy manager will have to look elsewhere.
