Commanders, Browns both get huge, positive injury updates overnight

Brian Robinson, David Njoku being active would be helpful to both in Week 5

The Cleveland Browns and Washington Commanders face off in an interesting Week 5 matchup on Sunday. For most, the Browns and Commanders have the opposite records of what was expected with the visitors from Cleveland on the verge of losing their season.

Given the 1-3 record, we’ve started looking at the Browns being sellers at the NFL trade deadline and even a full NFL Mock Draft for the team.

There are still a ton of games to be played including this weekend where both teams have...

Sunday Dawg Chow (10/6): Believing in Watson, Cooper trade rumors, a new Lamar Jackson, defensive woes and more!

The latest Cleveland Browns news and notes from around the NFL in the Sunday Dawg Chow.

The Cleveland Browns and the Washington football team used to meet on a regular basis.

After joining the NFL in 1950, the Browns would face Washington twice a year just about every season until Cleveland moved to the AFC in 1970 following the NFL-AFL merger.

It was a fruitful rivalry for the Browns as they were 30-5-1 against Washington during those two decades. Even though the two franchises have only met 12 times since the merger, the Browns still hold a dominant 35-12-1 record...

Here is your Week 5 injury wrap-up as the Cleveland Browns take on the Washington Commanders this Sunday.


Biggest Injury Storylines

  • Nick Chubb and Nyheim Hines returned to practice this week, but neither of them are activated for this week’s game. However, Cleveland does expect to have Pierre Strong return from his hamstring injury. It’ll be interesting to see his usage this week, because D’Onta Foreman’s reps have hit a bit of a wall lately.
  • On the defensive side of the ball, Alex Wright...

Browns still believe Deshaun Watson gives them ‘best chance to win’

Team held a players-only meeting this week to talk about the ongoing issues, but players still believe in their quarterback, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.

The Cleveland Browns have had numerous issues on offense that collectively help to explain why they enter Sunday’s game with a 1-3 record.

Injuries have continued to hit the offensive line, as:

Michael Dunn returns from Non-Football Injury list, Alex Wright official to IR

The Cleveland Browns will face off with the Washington Commanders in Week 5 of the NFL season in a must-win game. The Browns roster has been in some turmoil due to injuries but a lot of players could return in the next week few weeks including Sunday versus the Commanders.

Cleveland listed five players as questionable for Week 5 while ruling out five including RB Nick Chubb for the contest. The Browns designated three for return from a variety of lists this week. Along with Chubb, OL **Michael...

Austin Ekeler’s history indicates he could be a problem, Jeremy McNichols has experience

As very few would have predicted, the Cleveland Browns season could be finished before we get to the second week of October. Sitting at 1-3, the Browns have more than just Jayden Daniels to worry about in Week 5 against the Washington Commanders.

There is a lot to know about Week 5’s matchup in our nation’s capital including that the final injury report has some huge names on it. For Washington, none is bigger than RB Brian Robinson who [we had listed as one of three Commanders...

Amari Cooper’s name is already twisting in the NFL rumor winds

The Cleveland Browns have a must-win game on Sunday, Week 5, against the Washington Commanders. Sitting at 1-3, the Browns playoff chances are slim but not zero. A loss this week almost certainly ends those chances and puts all the focus on the future in Cleveland.

A future with a lot of uncertainty.

Even if the Browns win, the roster might look different when the NFL trade deadline hits in a month. While rumors are generally sparse this early, besides Davante Adams hinting at joining the AFC North, **Amari...

Saturday Dawg Chow (10/5): Scouting the Commanders, tackling issues, former Browns shine and more!

The latest Cleveland Browns news and notes from around the NFL in the Saturday Dawg Chow.

The Cleveland Browns find themselves in a tough situation heading into Week 5 of the NFL season.

The offense continues to struggle to find its rhythm, which has left the Browns are the only team without 300 yards of offense in a single game this season. The defense has forgotten how to tackle, which is kind of important in the NFL, and has lost its mojo from last season.

To rub some salt into the wound for Browns fans, a national TV audience watched...

Browns fans blame run defense for loss to Raiders, expecting Washington to demolish Cleveland in Week 5

Cleveland fans also don’t see a win against Washington this weekend.

Each week during season, Cleveland Browns fans vote in SB Nation Reacts to express their confidence level in the team or their thoughts on other topics.

After their loss to the Raiders in Week 4, the Browns’ confidence level crept up to 15%, an increase of 9 percentage points from the previous week. Fans are still frustrated with the team’s 1-3 start, but I think there is a shred of optimism that guys like Nick Chubb, David Njoku, and Jack Conklin are close to returning to the offense.
