Browns TE David Njoku (knee) took full practice reps all week. The breakout will be televised. Njoku is coming off a 7-55-1 day against the Chargers and has seen 11+ targets in two straight games, 30 in his last three games. He’s in a blowup spot this week against the Bucs, who are No. 32 in TE aFPA.

Brown WR Josh Gordon (hamstring) OUT Week 2

Browns official injury report

Sep 15, 2018 · 2:10 PM EDT

The Browns have ruled out starting WR Josh Gordon for Sunday's game in New Orleans.

Fantasy Impact:

Jarvis Landry and David Njoku figure to see a bump, while Rashard Higgins and Antonio Callaway will vie for leftovers. Duke Johnson may see more snaps as a receiver. There should be plenty of negative game script for the Browns in this game, as they are a heavy underdog against the Saints on the road.

Browns TE David Njoku (ankle) and DT Larry Ogunjobi (shoulder) both back in practice today after missing Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Njoku should be ready for Week 1 against the Steelers. He is our No. 12 ranked tight end heading into drafts this season, so he's shaping up to be a low-end TE1 option.

Browns expect TE David Njoku to make a jump

Pro Football Talk

Browns tight end David Njoku showed flashes of talent after Cleveland took him in the first round of last year’s draft, but his rookie numbers of 32 catches for 386 yards and four touchdowns weren’t exactly earth-shattering. This year, Njoku should be better.

That’s the word from Browns head coach Hue Jackson, who said he sees Njoku doing a lot more in the offense this year.

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson was quoted as saying he expects "to see a huge jump" from Njoku this season. He's only 21 and tight ends do tend to need at least a year to adjust to life in the NFL. We have Njoku ranked as our No. 22 TE in PPR formats, but his late-round value may be worth a flier for those in deeper leagues.

Browns TE David Njoku (wrist) took full practice reps all week. Njoku caught 4 passes for 74 yards and a touchdown against the Chargers last week, and they were No. 1 in TE aFPA. It was the fifth time in the last seven games he's seen at least 5 targets and he played 54% or more of the snaps for the third time in the last four games after not clearing that mark at all in his first eight games. The Packers have been tough on tight ends this season, but they gave up two touchdowns to Cameron Brate in Week 13.
