    Is Jerry Jeudy Playing in Week 8?

    Jeudy was listed on the injury report on Wednesday and Thursday for a knee injury but was a full participant in practice. Barring any setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.

    We’ll continue to monitor the Browns’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.

    Should You Start or Sit Jerry Jeudy in Week 8?

    Jerry Jeudy is an interesting thought study for fantasy managers. On one hand, the man has done next to nothing. Amari Cooper just left town for Buffalo, yet he has more October catches with the Bills than Jeudy does with the Browns. His last 15-point effort came on Christmas 2022, and this Cleveland offense ranks dead last in yards per game (253.9).

    On the other hand, we have a new quarterback taking over. Deshaun Watson’s season ended on Sunday, and while we don’t know their exact plan under center, there is little risk of things getting worse. The two WRs that join Jeudy atop this depth chart are Elijah Moore (1,760 career receiving yards across 3.5 seasons) and Cedric Tillman (15.0 receiving yards per game during his career) — not exactly proven target vacuums.

    Are you embracing the change or dismissing the offense?

    Reasonable minds can disagree, but I’m willing to give him one week to show me something, a benefit of the doubt that I wouldn’t have given him if not for the quarterback change. This is a strong matchup, so what’s the harm in taking a patient approach?

    Maybe this offense is just as pathetic as it’s been, and if that’s the case, you can cut ties with Jeudy after this week. No harm, no foul. But maybe this is the change that unlocks Jeudy, something that you’d want access to down the stretch of the fantasy playoffs (they go to Cincinnati in Week 16 and, off of a mini bye, host the Dolphins in Week 17).

    Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns Insights

    Baltimore Ravens

    Team: The Ravens play three divisional games over the next four weeks – Week 11 will mark the end of their road divisional games this regular season.

    QB: Lamar Jackson completed 11-of-14 passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns in the first half on Monday night in Tampa Bay. The reigning MVP has a first-half touchdown pass in five straight games, matching the second-longest streak of his career (he had nine straight games bridging the 2019-20 seasons).

    Offense: The Ravens have scored 30-plus points in four straight games, the third time they’ve done that in a single season since the start of 2000. A fifth straight game would match their longest streak over that stretch (Weeks 7-11 in 2023, Weeks 7-12 in 2019).

    Defense: Baltimore entered Week 7 with three interceptions – they picked off Baker Mayfield twice in the stretch of three first-half passes.

    Fantasy: Zay Flowers is turning into one of the more frustrating fantasy options in the league. Through seven weeks, he now has four games with under 40 receiving yards and three with north of 90

    Betting: Overs have come through in nine of Baltimore’s past 13 games played on short rest.

    Cleveland Browns

    Team: The Browns have lost five straight games and haven’t scored more than 16 points in any of them – that’s the longest such streak within a single season since the 2017 Texans (Weeks 12-17).

    QB: Deshaun Watson’s season is over – no QB who kept his job through seven weeks was averaging fewer yards per pass this year (5.3).

    Offense: The Browns have punted on most of their drives this season (50.6%, pacing for the highest rate since both the Rams and 49ers punted on 50.8% of their possessions in 2016).

    Defense: The Browns have allowed the second-lowest completion percentage this season (58.8%) but also have the third-worst interception rate (0.5%).

    Fantasy: David Njoku scored last week and has a pair of top-10 finishes at the tight end position this season – if there is going to be a bright spot in this passing game, he seems poised to be it.

    Betting: Home underdogs getting more than seven points have covered 60.2% of the time since 2020 (44-29-2).
