Browns announce Deshaun Watson and a plethora of rookies as inactive vs. Ravens

The Browns have announced their inactives for today’s matchup against the Ravens including quarterback Deshaun Watson

The Cleveland Browns are just about set to take on the Baltimore Ravens in this Week 4 AFC North showdown, and they will be doing so without their starting quarterback. Deshaun Watson has been ruled out in this game due to a contusion on his throwing shoulder as the Browns will now give him through the bye to rest. This means Dorian Thompson-Robinson will get the start for the Browns as they look to advance to 3-1 on the season and 2-1 in the division.

As they do every week, the Browns have announced the rest of their inactives 90 minutes before game time. This week’s list of inactives is nearly identical to the previous weeks as well. One big name omitted is tight end David Njoku, as he will play despite sustaining burns on his arms and face during a fire pit accident at his home on Friday night.

Here is the full list of inactives the Browns have announced.

Browns elevate QB PJ Walker with Deshaun Watson questionable

Is this a sign that Watson might not be able to go?

With quarterback Deshaun Watson questionable for Sunday’s matchup with the Baltimore Ravens, the Cleveland Browns have made a move for some insurance by elevating PJ Walker from the practice squad. This doesn’t mean that Watson won’t be active but it certainly means there’s a chance he won’t.

Watson did very little throwing this week as he deals with a sore throwing shoulder. The quarterback said he expects to play but it leaves you wondering just how effective he can be dealing with the shoulder injury.

In addition to the Walker elevation the team also elevated tight end Zaire Mitchell-Paden as David Njoku is now questionable. Njoku was involved in an accident in his backyard that resulted in burns to his arm and face. Outside of these two players, everyone else on the roster is healthy going into another AFC North matchup against the Ravens as the team looks to get another big victory before the bye week.
