Denzel Boston Denzel Boston Cleared to play against Ravens
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 3:02 PM
Boston (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Analysis: A limited practice participant throughout the week, Boston should be fine for his usual workload unless there's an in-game setback Sunday. He's rarely left the field for Cleveland this season, and his big plays have been about the only bright spot on offense. |
KC Concepcion Jr. KC Concepcion Jr. Out of concussion protocol
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 1:27 PM
Concepcion has cleared concussion protocol and will play Sunday against the Ravens, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Concepcion sustained a concussion last Sunday when he took a big hit from Jets safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, with his helmet slamming into the turf afterward. However, Concepcion was able to make quick work of the protocol for head injuries this week and will be available to the Browns offense Sunday. Prior to his abbreviated outing in Week 5, the rookie first-rounder had a 17-144-0 line on 28 targets through the first four games of his career. |
Dylan Sampson Dylan Sampson Remaining on injured reserve
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 1:20 PM
Sampson (knee) won't be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's contest against the Ravens, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sampson has been sidelined since injuring his left knee during a Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, and while he was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, he didn't do enough in practice since then to warrant activation. With Sampson still sidelined and Quinshon Judkins' (foot) status up in the air for Week 6, the Browns may be looking at a situation in which Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime are powering the ground game this weekend. |
Quinshon Judkins Quinshon Judkins Listed as questionable for Week 6
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 1:13 PM
Judkins (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Baltimore, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Judkins was spotted wearing a walking boot on his right foot following this past Sunday's loss at the Jets, after which head coach Todd Monken called him "day-to-day," per Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com. After sitting out practice Wednesday and Thursday, Judkins was back on the practice field Friday, which seemingly is enough to give him a chance to play Sunday versus the Ravens. Because fellow RB Dylan Sampson (knee) won't return from IR this weekend, Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime stand to benefit if Judkins is inhibited or out Sunday. |

Quinshon Judkins Quinshon Judkins Back at practice Friday
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 11:18 AM
Judkins (foot) was back at practice Friday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Judkins missed practice Wednesday and Thursday after making an early exit from Cleveland's Week 6 loss. A return to practice Friday suggests he's still got a shot to play Sunday against Baltimore, though an injury designation seems likely when the Browns release their final report Friday afternoon. |
Tylan Wallace Tylan Wallace Still dealing with knee injury
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 6:51 PM
Wallace (knee) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Wallace has sat out the Browns' last two games because of a nagging knee injury, and while he was at least able to return to practice Wednesday, it's evidently still bothering him. If he can't manage a full practice Friday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him carry an injury designation into the weekend. |
Misses another practice Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 6:48 PM
Schwesinger (ankle) did not participate at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Schwesinger suffered a Grade 1 right ankle sprain in the Browns' contest against the Jets in Week 5, and his status for Week 6 is now in serious doubt. Unless he's able to get back on the practice field Friday, it's unlikely he'll be able to suit up Sunday versus the Ravens. |
Carsen Ryan Carsen Ryan Back at practice Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 6:44 PM
Ryan (calf) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Ryan started the week by missing practice Wednesday with the same injury that kept him sidelined in Week 5 against the Jets, but he's now trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game versus the Ravens. If he can upgrade to full participation at practice Friday, he might be able to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend. |
|
Trending towards sitting out Sunday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 6:40 PM
Graham (knee/ankle) did not participate at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Graham still has not practiced since suffering an MCL sprain and an ankle sprain in Week 4 versus the Steelers, and it's looking increasingly unlikely he's going to suit up for Week 6. Barring a return to practice Friday, he'll probably be ruled out when Cleveland publishes its last official injury report of the week Friday. |

Dylan Sampson Dylan Sampson Limited in return to practice
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 4:12 PM
Sampson (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Though the Browns officially designated Sampson for return from injured reserve Wednesday, he didn't end up taking any reps in the team's first Week 6 practice session. Sampson was back on the field a day later as a limited participant, but in order to have a shot at being reinstated from IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, he may need to upgrade to a full practice Friday. Lead back Quinshon Judkins (foot) hasn't been able to practice in any fashion this week and looks to be trending toward sitting out versus Baltimore, so Sampson could be in line for a prominent role if he ends up getting activated this weekend. |

KC Concepcion Jr. KC Concepcion Jr. Remains limited in practice
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 4:09 PM
Concepcion (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: While Concepcion's ability to practice in some capacity for a second straight day is an encouraging sign, he still has a couple of hurdles to clear in order to play Sunday versus the Ravens. In addition to upgrading to full practice participation Friday, Concepcion will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist no later than Saturday before he's removed from concussion protocol. If the rookie wideout can't play against Baltimore, Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond would be in store for more reps behind Denzel Boston (foot), who was also limited in practice Thursday. |

Denzel Boston Denzel Boston Limited again Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 3:56 PM
Boston (foot) remained limited at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Boston has logged back-to-back limited practices to kick off Week 6 prep. The rookie wideout could still avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday's pivotal home game against the Ravens, especially if he can upgrade to full participation Thursday. Fellow rookie WR KC Concepcion (concussion) was also limited both Wednesday and Thursday. More opportunities could be available for Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond should one or both of Boston and Concepcion sit Sunday. |

Quinshon Judkins Quinshon Judkins No activity in open portion Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 12:32 PM
Judkins (foot) was present for Thursday's practice but didn't participate in stretching or individual drills during the portion of practice open to the media, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Judkins was listed as a non-participant Wednesday, and while his presence Thursday is encouraging, he may go down as a non-participant again unless he ramps up his activity level behind closed doors. The Browns placed Raheim Sanders (hip) on injured reserve Tuesday and opened Dylan Sampson's 21-day window to return from IR on Wednesday. If neither Judkins or Sampson are available Sunday against the Ravens, Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime would split Cleveland's backfield duties in a rehash of the 2024 Broncos backfield. |

Misses practice Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 8:20 PM
Howard (knee) did not participate at the Browns' practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Howard suffered a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the team's Week 5 loss to the Jets, and he was unable to return to the contest. He has now opened the week as a non-participant at the team's first practice, and he'll have two more chances to return to the field before Sunday's matchup with Baltimore. |
|
Dylan Sampson Dylan Sampson No practice activity Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 4:59 PM
Sampson (knee) was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Despite being designated for return from injured reserve earlier Wednesday, Sampson didn't end up logging any reps after having his 21-day practice window opened. Prior to the Browns' first Week 6 practice, head coach Todd Monken told Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram that Sampson has a chance at being activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, but the second-year back would likely need to put in a full workout Thursday or Friday to make that a reality. |

KC Concepcion Jr. KC Concepcion Jr. Limited in Wednesday's practice
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 4:48 PM
Concepcion (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Just three days after sustaining a concussion when he was on the receiving end of a helmet-to-helmet hit from the Jets' Minkah Fitzpatrick, Concepcion was able to make enough progress through the five-step protocol to open Week 6 prep on the field, albeit in a limited fashion. He'll have two more chances to upgrade to full participation and will then need to receive clearance from an independent neurologist before being removed from the protocol. If Concepcion can't play Sunday against the Ravens, Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond would be in line for added reps alongside Denzel Boston (foot) in two- and three-receiver sets. |

Denzel Boston Denzel Boston Limited by foot issue
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 4:43 PM
Boston was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a foot injury, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Analysis: The rookie second-round pick is making his first career appearance on the injury report, but his ability to practice on at least a limited basis to begin Week 6 prep is a good sign for his chances of playing Sunday against the Ravens. The current betting favorite for the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award, Boston has opened his career with a 16-330-3 receiving line on 29 targets through five games. |

Quinshon Judkins Quinshon Judkins Sits out practice Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 4:30 PM
Judkins (foot) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Analysis: Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com noted that Judkins was spotted Wednesday walking around the locker room without a walking boot on his right foot, but the running back ultimately wasn't able to mix into any drills during the Browns' first Week 6 practice session. Judkins will need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday for fantasy managers to feel good about his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Ravens. At least for the time being, Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime are the healthy running backs on the Browns' active roster. |

Dylan Sampson Dylan Sampson Back practicing Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 11:15 AM
The Browns designated Sampson (knee) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: The transaction clears the way for Sampson to practice Wednesday and opens a 21-day window for the Browns to evaluate him for a return to the 53-man roster. The second-year back has been sidelined since sustaining the left knee injury during the Browns' Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, but head coach Todd Monken suggested that Sampson could have a shot at playing Sunday versus the Ravens, per Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. Sampson will likely need to turn in at least one full practice over the next three days for the Browns to feel comfortable activating him from injured reserve ahead of their Week 6 matchup. |

Quinshon Judkins Quinshon Judkins No longer in boot, but won't practice
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 11:07 AM
Judkins was spotted Wednesday moving around the Cleveland locker room without a boot on his injured right ankle, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Per Oyefusi, Judkins isn't expected to practice Wednesday, but the fact that he's ditched his walking boot represents a tangible sign of progress in his recovery from the ankle injury he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Jets. Earlier in the week, head coach Todd Monken described Judkins as day-to-day, which suggests that the Browns haven't ruled out the possibility of their top running back playing this Sunday versus the Ravens. His activity -- or lack thereof -- in practices Thursday and Friday will likely guide the Browns' decision regarding whether or not he'll suit up this weekend. |
