Browns RBs Jerome Ford (ankle) and Pierre Strong (concussion) are out for Saturday's game vs. the Ravens. That leaves D'Onta Foreman and John Kelly as the healthy RBs on the active roster. RB Jacob Kibodi is on the practice squad. Foreman is the favorite for carries this weekend but is not an appealing fantasy play. The Browns are 18.5-point underdogs with an 11.5-point implied total.
Browns RBs Jerome Ford (ankle) and Pierre Strong (concussion) were sidelined for Tuesday's practice. Both guys are in danger of missing Saturday's game vs. the Ravens. That'd leave D'Onta Foreman as Cleveland's likely lead back. RB John Kelly is also on the active roster, with RB Jacob Kibodi on the practice squad. The Browns are 17.5-point underdogs with a 12.25-point implied total in Baltimore, so this is a backfield to avoid in Week 18 fantasy lineups.
Browns RB Jerome Ford injured his right ankle in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. He's officially questionable to return. We'll update his status when we know more. RB D'Onta Foreman has taken over as Cleveland's lead back.
Update: Ford returned for the start of the second half.
The forecast for this afternoon's Dolphins-Browns game calls for sustained winds of 15-25 mph with gusts over 35. There's a chance for rain during the second half, but the winds are the real story here. They figure to impact the passing and kicking games. With Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center for their respective teams, this figures to be a low-scoring, run-heavy affair.
Browns RB Jerome Ford kicked off the game with a 66-yard scamper and would find the end zone in the third quarter. Ford accounted for 42.8% of the Browns offensive yards in the game. He ran 11 times for 92 yards and the score while also catching all five of his targets for 39 yards.
Browns RB Nick Chubb broke his left foot in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, HC Kevin Stefanski said afterward. That will end Chubb's 2024 season after just eight games, although it shouldn't threaten his readiness for the start of the 2025 campaign. Of course, it's just another lower-body injury for a guy who's suffered a pair of devastating knee injuries. Chubb turns 29 later this month. His absence leaves Jerome Ford as Cleveland's likely lead back the rest of the way. He averaged 9.6 carries and 4.6 targets across five healthy games without Chubb at the beginning of this season.
Both Browns RBs Jerome Ford and Nick Chubb had nine touches in the loss to the Chiefs. Ford scored the only TD for Cleveland breaking a 62-yard run in the third quarter. He ended with 104 total yards to Chubb’s 41. Chubb left the game with a broken foot, so Ford will become the new lead back.

Browns RB Nick Chubb averaged 4.4 yards per carry in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. That marked his second-best average through seven apperances this season. But he also garnered just 11 carries vs. Jerome Ford's 10 for the game. Chubb also trailed Ford in pass routes and total snaps once again.

Browns RB Jerome Ford (hamstring) is not listed on the final injury report and will play vs. the Chargers on Sunday. Cleveland will have Ford and RB Nick Chubb available for the first time this season. Ford figures to lead this backfield in passing-down snaps going forward. We’ll see how much rushing work he takes from Chubb.
Browns RB Jerome Ford (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday. He seemingly has a shot to play vs the Chargers this weekend. Ford wouldn't be a recommended Week 9 fantasy starter but could steal work from RB Nick Chubb, particularly in the passing game.
Browns RB Jerome Ford (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Ravens. That’ll again leave the backfield to RBs Nick Chubb, D’Onta Foreman, and Pierre Strong. Chubb played 35% of the snaps and handled 11 of 16 RB carries last week. His role could grow this weekend, but the matchup is brutal against a Baltimore run defense ranked fourth in DVOA.
