ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (ankle) now has a gunslinger in Jameis Winston throwing him the ball. This is sure to lead to more production. Winston is a high volume passer, the football equivalent of one of the old west's wildest outlaws, and a huge fantasy asset for all Browns' receivers and TEs.

He told me before practice he was feeling healthier.

More clarity about the situation could come out in the coming days, so fantasy managers should check back for news as Cleveland's matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday draws closer.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically.
