David Njoku and Cedric Tillman being out is huge for an offense that has struggled
The underdog Cleveland Browns welcome in the Miami Dolphins in Week 17 of the 2024 NFL season. While the focus for the Browns and their fans is on 2025 including potentially adding QB Kirk Cousins and fighting for the top spot in the 2025 NFL draft.
Injuries are always a huge story this late in any NFL season. Cleveland placed DT Shelby Harris on injured reserve this week. The injury reports for both the Browns and Dolphins included a number of players sitting out practices to start the week.
As we wait for the official injury report from both teams, HC Kevin Stefanski informed the media that the following were ruled out for this week:
- TE David Njoku
- WR Cedric Tillman
- DE Ogbo Okoronkwo
Cleveland will have QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson starting this week despite dealing with a calf injury. QB Jameis Winston will be the backup if he is able to play as he will be listed as questionable due to his right shoulder.
We will have Miami’s injury report along with the Browns official information later this afternoon.
