Team news: Cleveland Browns | Page 13

Deshaun Watson has been limited on the injury report this week with a right shoulder issue. Cleveland’s backup QB is rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson. They face Baltimore on Sunday.

The corresponding tweet mentioned that Watson threw two passes at Friday practice open to the media. In typical redraft leagues, it's heavily suggested to look for a better Week 4 option.

Deshaun Watson could be fined by the NFL for his contact with an official Monday night but won’t be suspended. He also could be fined for his two personal fouls.

Watson committed two personal foul face mask penalties, one of which led to a scuffle on the Steelers sideline in which Watson pushed aside a referee. According to another Maske post on X, the on-field officials and the league considered the contact inadvertent and the officials did not believe it merited a penalty.

Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson got away with shoving an official during Monday night’s game.

In the third quarter, Watson was flagged for unnecessary roughness for grabbing the facemask of Pittsburgh’s Kwon Alexander and holding onto it even after both players were out of bounds on the Steelers’ sideline. After the play, Watson lingered near the sideline and exchanged words with the Steelers.

At that point umpire Barry Anderson stepped in front of Watson and tried to direct him back to the field, and Watson shoved Anderson to the side to continue jawing with Steelers players.

Watson was not flagged for the shove, even though the NFL rulebook says under the “Prohibited acts” section that “Under no circumstance is a player allowed to shove, push, or strike an official” and that “The player shall be disqualified from the game,” the story went on to say. The story added the missed shove seems like a blown call and the league office may hand down its own discipline. Pro Football Talk went on to say on X, "All plays will be evaluated and assessed today."

Cooper is still a game time decision, but was in pain this morning. If Cooper can't go, Moore and Peoples-Jones would likely suck up a bunch of the targets from the WR spot. The rookie Tillman could also get more involved, as could TE Njoku.

Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) is officially out for Sunday vs. the Bills, as is DE Chandler Jones (personal). QB Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) and WR Davante Adams (foot) are off the injury report and good to go.

The Raiders had a very tight target tree in Week 1, with Jakobi Meyers surprisingly leading the way with his 10 targets and two touchdowns. We could see Renfrow far outkick his 13 snaps from Week 1, while Adams would almost assuredly demand a massive target share.

Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) was a full participant yesterday, putting him on track to play this Sunday.

The Broncos passing offense once again looked more or less anemic in Week 1, and Jeudy returning should add some oomph to the pass-catching unit. While this doesn't necessarily put Russell Wilson on 1QB radars, Jeudy should be considered a strong WR3 with upside for more if he's a full-go come Sunday.

Raiders coach Josh McDaniels indicates that WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) is doubtful to play this week.

The Raiders had a very tight target tree in Week 1, with Jakobi Meyers surprisingly leading the way with his 10 targets and two touchdowns. Remaining in the protocol this late in the week isn't a very good sign, though. We could see Renfrow far outkick his 13 snaps from Week 1, while Adams would almost assuredly demand a massive target share.

With the way the Broncos offense performed in Week 1, this should hopefully provide a shot in the arm. Jeudy should instantly be atop the target share in Week 2, which should allow him to return high-end WR3 value.

WR Jakobi Meyers remains in the concussion protocol, HC Josh McDaniels told reporters Wednesday, per ESPN's Paul Gutierrez.
