Cleveland Browns

Quincy Williams

LB

Williams was added to the injury report with an apparent neck injury Thursday, and he was forced to miss practice. The linebacker will have another chance to return to the field for the team's final practice Friday, but if he is unavailable in Week 7, Justin Jefferson would be a top candidate to draw a start at strongside linebacker versus the Titans.

Carson Schwesinger

LB

Schwesinger was able to return to the field after missing the team's first practice of the week while tending to his lingering ankle injury. The linebacker has been able to play through the injury the last few weeks, and he seems likely to be good to go Sunday versus the Titans.

Grant Delpit

S

Delpit is still recovering from the concussion he suffered in Week 6 versus the Ravens, and he is now also dealing with a shoulder injury. The safety was able to increase from being a non-participant at Wednesday's first practice of the week to being limited Thursday, but he will still need to clear concussion protocol to even have a chance to play Sunday versus the Titans.

Denzel Boston

WR

Boston has been bothered by a foot injury since the start of Cleveland's Week 6 preparations against the Ravens. He suited up for that game after three limited practices but was held to one catch, and the rookie second-round pick has opened Week 7 prep with a pair of limited sessions. Boston will look to increase his practice participation Friday and avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Dylan Sampson

RB

Since being designated for return from injured reserve last week, Sampson has turned in four consecutive limited practices. While the Browns haven't indicated that Sampson has experienced any setbacks with his knee since making his return to practice, he may need to upgrade to full participation Friday to put himself on a path to come off IR prior to Sunday's game against the Titans.

KC Concepcion

WR

Concepcion and Denzel Boston (foot) have now been limited in both of the Browns' first two Week 7 practices, so the two rookie wideouts may need to upgrade to full participation Friday to avoid taking injury designations into Sunday's game against the Titans. After sustaining a concussion in the Browns' Week 5 loss to the Jets, Concepcion was able to clear the five-step protocol prior to last week's game against the Ravens and went on to finish with four catches for 37 yards on six targets while adding two yards on two carries in a 13-10 win.

Quinshon Judkins

RB

Judkins has logged back-to-back limited practices as he tries to limit his absence due to an ankle injury to one game. He sat out the Browns' Week 6 win over the Ravens, during which Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime notched nine carries apiece. Cleveland could have a different backfield mix Sunday against the Titans, with Judkins angling to reclaim the lead role and Dylan Sampson (knee) eligible to be activated from injured reserve.

Maliek Collins

DT

Justin Jefferson

LB

Jefferson left the Browns' contest versus the Ravens in Week 6 early with a hip injury, but it looks like he'll be good to go for Week 7. Through two games in 2026, all 34 of his snaps have come on special teams.

Andre Szmyt

PK

Szmyt made multiple field goals for the fifth week in a row. The kicker made his first try from 48 yards in the third quarter before missing another 48-yard try wide left with 3:44 left in regulation. Szmyt was able to get the last laugh though, nailing a game-winning 37-yard field goal as time expired in the fourth quarter. On the year, Szmyt has gone 12-for-13 on field-goal tries while making eight of nine extra-point attempts over six games.

Audric Estime

RB

The Browns were without Quinshon Judkins (foot), Raheim Sanders (hip, IR) and Dylan Sampson (knee, IR) on Sunday, so Estime and Jaleel McLaughlin were the leaders of Cleveland's backfield. Estime and McLaughlin each had nine carries, but it was the former that logged a two-yard rushing touchdown midway through the fourth quarter to tie the game up at 10-10. Estime's 19 offensive snaps were nearly half of McLaughlin (39), but both of their roles will shrink significantly if Judkins is cleared to return for Week 7 against the Titans on Oct. 25.

CB

Taylen Green

QB

Parker Brailsford

C

Jaleel McLaughlin

RB

McLaughlin served as the lead back with Quinshon Judkins (ankle) declared inactive and both Raheim Sanders (hip) and Dylan Sampson (knee) on injured reserve. While his rushing opportunities were capped, McLaughlin was reasonably efficient with them while also recording a pristine catch rate on his four targets. The former Bronco is ideally suited for a change-of-pace role, but his speed has always afforded him some fantasy upside. McLaughlin could find himself in a similar role in a Week 7 road matchup against the Titans if Judkins remains sidelined and Sampson isn't activated from IR.

Harold Fannin Jr.

TE

Fannin was quiet for a second straight game while Jerry Jeudy surprisingly paced the Browns' air attack with a season-high 69 receiving yards. Fannin's production has been hard to trust during the first few weeks of the season, as he's recorded five or more catches just twice and three receptions and 27 receiving yards or less in his other four games. Fannin will look for a boost in his numbers during a Week 7 road matchup against the Titans on Sunday.

Deshaun Watson

QB

As Watson's numbers suggest, he didn't do anything of particular note as either a passer or runner, but the veteran signal-caller did avoid turnovers despite taking five sacks. That alone helped keep Cleveland in a game in which the Browns faced a 10-0 halftime deficit, and he was then able to lead fourth-quarter touchdown and field-goal drives that completed the comeback. Watson has surprisingly helped the Browns to a 4-2 record, and he's provided a solid 7:2 TD:INT and 196 rushing yards along the way. He'll look to carry over the momentum into a Week 7 road clash with the Titans on Sunday.

Jerry Jeudy

WR

Jeudy's four targets were third on the team, but he made the most of them and ended up leading the Browns in receiving on a day Deshaun Watson threw for just 164 yards and no touchdowns. The veteran wideout entered Week 6 with just eight catches for 81 yards and can largely be ignored in fantasy as Cleveland's fourth or fifth option on offense most weeks.

Kalia Davis

DT

Davis was held out of practice all week, which isn't a great sign given that he was designated to return from injured reserve Oct. 6. If he's not activated from IR by the end of his 21-day window, then Davis would be required to miss the rest of the season. His next chance to play is Week 7 against the Titans on Sunday, Oct. 25.
