Chargers TEs David Njoku and Charlie Kolar will be placed on IR with the injuries they suffered in the Week 2 loss to the Raiders, HC Jim Harbaugh said. Kolar's forearm injury will cost him "about a month," a source tells ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. We're still waiting for details on Njoku's knee injury, but he's also out at least 4 weeks.

Update: Njoku has a fibula injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, but there's still no timeline for his return.

Chargers TE David Njoku was carted off early in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders with an apparent knee injury. We'll update his status when we know more, but this obviously looks like a significant injury.

Update: Njoku has been ruled out with a knee injury.

Browns TE David Njoku suffered a knee injury on a TD catch in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Titans. He's officially questionable to return. Njoku had fallen way behind TE Harold Fannin in the pecking order, but his absence can't be bad news for the rookie.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is not listed on the final injury report for this weekend’s game vs. the Raiders. He put in a full practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days. Njoku has run a route on just 52% of pass plays and totaled four targets over the last two weeks, so he’s not a viable fantasy play.

Browns TE Harold Fannin was added to the injury report with a hamstring and did not practice on Thursday. We don't have any other details, but the rookie's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Jets is now in question. Fannin's absence would turn David Njoku into a borderline TE1. We'll update the situation tomorrow.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots. Njoku would be a shaky fantasy play coming off the injury and splitting work with TE Harold Fannin. But his return would knock Fannin down the TE rankings. We’ll look for more updates on Njoku and get Cleveland’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. He briefly tried to play through this injury last week but ultimately exited the game for good. We're not expecting Njoku to play vs. the Dolphins this weekend, which would turn TE Harold Fannin into a very viable fantasy starter.

Browns TE David Njoku suffered a thigh injury in the second half of Sunday's game vs. the Steelers and is questionable to return. We'll update his status when we know more. TE Harold Fannin figures to pick up extra routes for however long Njoku is out.

Update: HC Kevin Stefanski said after Sunday's game that Njoku has a knee injury but didn't provide any other details. We should learn more on Monday.

Browns WR Cedric Tillman suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and has been ruled out. We'll update his status when we know more, but expect this to be a multi-week injury. Tillman's absence will free up snaps for rookie WR Isaiah Bond, and potentially mean more targets for WR Jerry Jeudy and TEs David Njoku and Harold Fannin.

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.

Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, so there’s elevated risk of limited snaps and/or re-injury. Njoku also gets a QB downgrade in Dorian Thompson-Robinson. He’d be a shaky Week 16 fantasy start.

ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport both label Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) a game-time decision for today's tilt with the Chiefs. "Not practicing all week doesn't bode well," Rapoport adds. "But the team will give him a shot." We're still projecting Njoku to miss this one but will get Cleveland's inactives around 11:30 am ET. Even if he does play, he'll carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups with the hamstring injury.

Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Kevin Stefanski labeled him "day-to-day." So, while this isn't a serious injury, it sounds like there's a chance Njoku isn't available for this weekend's game vs. the Chiefs. We'll keep tabs on his status over the next few days.

Browns TE David Njoku (ankle, hand) is not listed on the final Week 9 injury report. He was sidelined on Thursday but returned to a limited practice on Friday. Njoku should be ready for a high-volume role vs. the Chargers this weekend.

Browns TE David Njoku was added to the injury report with ankle and hand issues and did not practice on Thursday. Njoku missed three games earlier this season with an ankle injury, although it's unclear if this is related. Check back tomorrow for an update on Njoku's status for this weekend's game vs. the Chargers.

The Browns plan to start QB Jameis Winston in Sunday's game against the Ravens, according to insider Jordan Schultz. "My understanding is Dorian Thompson-Robinson was [Deshaun] Watson’s backup on Sunday strictly from a gameplan standpoint," Schultz adds. That suggests that Cleveland is opting to go with Winston over Thompson-Robinson regardless of Thompson-Robinson's finger injury. That'd be good news for Cleveland's pass catchers going forward.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee, ankle) is not listed on the final Week 6 injury report. It’s a bit of a surprise after he suffered a knee injury last Sunday and then did not practice on Wednesday. But Njoku got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday and will play against the Eagles this weekend. He’s a risky fantasy start after making it through just 26 snaps last week.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee, ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He returned from his high-ankle sprain last week and subsequently suffered a knee injury. Njoku doesn't seem particularly likely to play vs. the Eagles this weekend, but we'll track his status over the next few days.

Browns TE David Njoku injured a knee in the Week 5 loss to the Commanders and had an MRI on Monday, HC Kevin Stefanski said. Stefanski didn't have any details on the results of that MRI.
