Browns placed in enhanced mitigation protocols amid COVID outbreak

Dec 14, 2021

Browns most recent COVID-19 testing round, they have been placed in enhanced mitigation protocols by the league.

Adam Schefter reports the team placed the following players on their COVID list: TE Austin Hooper, WR Jarvis Landry, G Wyatt Teller, OT Jedrick Wills, G Drew Forbes, DE Takkarist McKinley, WR JoJo Natson, and Ross Travis.

Fantasy Impact:

Today’s team meetings will be virtual and all players, coaches, and tiered personnel must be masked while indoors. Walkthrough practice still scheduled for this afternoon, but will now be closed to the media. More significant, the team is potentially without several starting lineman, as well as Landry and Hooper for this week's game if they aren't able to test negative twice in 24 hours.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
