Holmgren in CLE meeting with the Browns

Dec 15, 2009

The Cleveland Browns search for a new leader of football has taken a surprising — and potentially exciting — turn.

Mike Holmgren spent Monday afternoon and evening in Cleveland meeting with the Browns.

He will spend Tuesday in Berea as well.

Holmgren is discussing joining the Browns as the team's football leader, the "czar" of football, for lack of a better word.

It's a job he has not held in his career, but he brings strong credentials.

Jets downgrade WR Jamison Crowder to doubtful

Jets WR Jamison Crowder (groin) has been downgraded to doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Bills.

Fantasy Impact:

The Jets also activated rookie Denzel Mims off injured reserve, a good sign Crowder will not play. It will be Mims’ NFL debut after dealing with hamstring issues. Injuries have resulted in Crowder cooling off after a strong first three games he played with three 100-yard games.

Bills TE Dawson Knox tested positive for COVID-19 and will not play Sunday against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bills also placed TEs Lee Smith, Tommy Sweeny and practice squad TE Nate Becker on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Tyler Kroft was actually away from the team for the birth of his daughter. Kroft will now take over for the time being as the starter while Knox recovers. Kroft is our No. 27 tight end for the week.

No new positive tests for the Raiders and Saints

The Raiders and Saints did not have any new positive cases from Friday’s round of COVID testing.

Fantasy Impact:

The Raiders-Buccaneers and Saints-Panthers games are both on track to be played Sunday. Vegas had the biggest scare after all five starting offensive linemen were sent home earlier this week, but things are trending back in the right direction. A reminder that this game is now a 4:05 kickoff after originally being the Sunday night game (Seahawks-Cardinals is now in that spot). Saints-Panthers is an early kickoff and a friendly reminder that neither Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) or Emmanuel Sanders (COVID-19) will play in that game.
