Pete Werner, Jamaal Williams, Lucas Patrick all miss the first 2 practices
The Cleveland Browns and New Orleans Saints playing in Week 11 of the season was expected to have a little meaning. Instead, both teams are near the bottom of their respective conferences and have very little to play for the rest of the season.
The first injury report of the week saw the Browns as mostly healthy while the Saints had three key contributors not practicing. New Orleans has a few big-name, big-game players that could drastically impact the outcome while Cleveland’s offense has a few X-factor guys that could impact the game greatly.
Following practice for both teams, we have our second injury report of the week with slight improvements for the home team but still three key players out (Changes are in bold):
Browns Injury Report
- OL Joel Bitonio – Pectoral – Limited
- LB Jordan Hicks – Elbow, Triceps – Full
- WR Jerry Jeudy – Knee – Full

Update:
Not all positives for Cleveland as the team added rookie DT Michael Hall Jr. to the list:
#Browns DT Mike Hall was added to injury report as limited participant with knee injury.
