Browns Injury Report: Jerome Ford, Jedrick Wills questionable vs. Seahawks

The Browns enter their matchup against the Seahawks healthier than the week started!

The Cleveland Browns are looking to advance to 5-2 on the season as they take on the Seattle Seahawks in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday afternoon. However, two key players– running back Jerome Ford and left tackle Jedrick Wills– will enter the matchup as questionable to play.

Ford, of course, has surprised the Browns by how quickly he has returned to the practice field after suffering an ankle sprain in the team’s Week 7 win. This led to the team signing three different running backs to the practice squad this week.

Notable players who are not on the injury report for this game, however, are defensive ends Ogbo Okoronkwo and Alex Wright. Okoronkwo was dealing with a rib injury this week while Wright left the win against the Indianapolis Colts with concussion symptoms. Linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. also practiced in full on Friday and was not given a gameday designation.

Here is the full list of players who were limited in practice, were not able to practice, and were given a gameday designation.

3 Bold predictions as the Browns look for three-in-a-row vs. Seahawks

Will the Browns be able to extend the winning streak to 3 games?

The Cleveland Browns got another thrilling victory over the Indianapolis Colts last week when Kareem Hunt punched it in from the one-yard line for a 39-38 win. That win had much to do with a superhuman effort from defensive end Myles Garrett that got him tabbed as the AFC Defensive Player of the Week. Now the team heads out west into one of the toughest places to play to face the Seahawks in Seattle.

The team will again turn to backup P.J. Walker as Deshaun Watson continues to recover from his shoulder injury. Walker hasn’t been great but the offensive line and running game have gradually gotten better if he can limit turnovers they may be able to tread water in Seattle.

No matter what the team will need a strong showing from the defense if they want to extend the winning streak to three games. Myles Garrett had a phenomenal game last week if the defense can replicate what they did against the 49ers a couple of weeks ago they could find some success and extend the streak.

Here are this week’s bold predictions as the Browns look to conquer the 12th man in Seattle.

Browns Injury Report: David Njoku, Kareem Hunt return to practice

With the Seahawks up next, the Browns got some key players back at practice as David Njoku and Kareem Hunt returned to the field

Sitting at 4-2 on the season and off of back-to-back wins, the Cleveland Browns head to Seattle to take on the Seahawks on Sunday. And they are still dealing with several injuries as they prepare to hop on the flight out west. However, some good news for them is that tight end David Njoku and running back Kareem Hunt both returned to practice on Thursday.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson will not be one of those returning this week as he is sitting this one out to continue his rehab. He did speak to the media yesterday, however, and explained his desire to play and how frustrating this injury has been to have lingered on for four weeks now.

He will not be the only one missing the game as there are still a handful of players being held out of practice. Here is the full list of players who did not participate or were limited in Thursday’s practice as the Browns look to advance to 5-2 on the season.

Browns Injury Report: A flurry of injuries overwhelm Wednesday’s practice with Seahawks next

The Browns enter Week 8 quite banged up…

Sitting at 4-2, the Cleveland Browns are once again looking to shock the world as they will start P.J. Walker at quarterback against the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle, also sitting at 4-2, enters this matchup as banged up as the Browns, who were without tight end David Njoku, running back Kareem Hunt, and a laundry list of other players on Wednesday.

Dealing with injuries for the past four weeks, however, the Browns have managed to squeak out wins against the San Francisco 49ers and the Indianapolis Colts in back-to-back weeks. They will be looking for similar luck this week as they travel out west for a two-game road trip against the Seahawks this week, then the Arizona Cardinals the week after that.

Here is the full list of players that were either limited in practice or missed practice for the Browns as they prepare for their Week 8 showdown in the Pacific Northwest. With two days of practice left, let’s hope this trends in the right direction.

NEW: Deshaun Watson will sit vs. Seahawks; P.J. Walker to start for Browns

The Browns will once again be without their starting quarterback

For the second time in three weeks, the Cleveland Browns will start veteran quarterback P.J. Walker. After exhausting his three practice squad call ups, the Browns have signed Walker to the active roster as Deshaun Watson will focus on rehabbing his shoulder this week as the team prepares for the Seattle Seahawks.

Watson left the game against the Indianapolis Colts in the first quarter after taking a hard hit along the sideline. He was evaluated for a concussion, but head coach Kevin Stefanski stated he made the call to sit Watson the rest of the game out of precaution. Walker then led the Browns’ offense the rest of the game, including a game-winning drive that included two big throws to move the chains.

The Browns currently sit at 4-2 on the season, getting ready to take on the 4-2 Seahawks. They then take on the struggling Arizona Cardinals the week after before back-to-back games against AFC North opponents. It would appear critical to get Watson back on the field for those matchups.
