Shark Bites

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) was a limited practice participant on Tuesday. Week 16’s showdown against the Saints is on Saturday, so today’s report will shed more light regarding the TE’s availability. Stay tuned.

The Browns announced Saturday that TE David Njoku is now questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens after suffering burns to his face and an arm in a "household accident," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. We'll check Njoku's status ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's inactive, TE Harrison Bryant would get a boost. TE Jordan Akins has also been involved, running 14 routes to Bryant's 31 through three games.

Browns TE David Njoku awoke from his fantasy slumber and finished as TE11 overall with 10.1 points per game in 2022. He hadn't finished that high since being the TE9 in 2018 and has only two other career top-25 fantasy seasons to his name. Fantasy managers looking for a high-end contributor at TE in 2023 outside the elite tier of players should look no further than Njoku. The former 1st-round pick finished 2022 12th among TEs in target share (18.2%), 13th in air yards share (15.2%), and fifth in Pro Football Focus receiving grade. Though most of that production came with QB Jacoby Brissett in the lineup last season, we feel optimistic about QB Deshaun Watson's chances at improving in 2023, which will certainly keep Njoku among the highest opportunity earners at the position. Take a look at where he we have him projected in our current TE rankings.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) is off the team's injury report after logging a full practice on Thursday. The weather in this game will be bad, but Njoku is still a low-end TE1 vs. the Saints in Week 16. He's tied for the team lead in targets (22) with QB Deshaun Watson under center. Even in inclement weather, TEs are usually decent short-area bets.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) practiced all week and isn't listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. "Dave has looked like himself," HC Kevin Stefanski said Friday. "He looks good." Njoku still carries at least slightly elevated risk coming off this knee injury, but he belongs in plenty of fantasy lineups considering the sorry state of the TE position.

Browns TE David Njoku (knee) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We'll see what he does on Friday and how Cleveland lists him on the final injury report for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals.
