Browns Fire OC Ken Dorsey

Browns Fire OC Ken Dorsey

The Browns have fired OC Ken Dorsey, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Cleveland ranks 28th in yards and dead last in points through 17 weeks. Despite shoddy QB play, the Browns lead the league in pass attempts and pass rate. We'll see if HC Kevin Stefanski keeps his job for 2025.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is out for Saturday's finale vs. the Ravens. TE Jordan Akins will get another game as lead TE but is a shaky fantasy bet with Cleveland implied for only 11.5 points.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the Dolphins. That puts TE Jordan Akins back in the lead role, but he’s not a viable fantasy play with QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. He just got over a hamstring injury but picked up a knee injury in the Week 16 loss to the Bengals. Njoku is uncertain for this Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. We'll keep you posted on his status.

With QB Jameis Winston benched for Dorian Thompson-Robinson, WR Jerry Jeudy’s massive production boost dropped off. He caught two of three targets for only 20 yards. With Thompson-Robinson opting for short passes to TE David Njoku and RB Jerome Ford, Jeudy had little to work with.
