David Njoku Rips Chargers For 149 Yards, TD
3 years agoCleveland Browns tight end David Njoku turned in a huge afternoon in a 47-42 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5. Njoku caught all seven of his targets for 149 yards and a touchdown in the loss. The veteran tight end easily paced the Browns in receiving, while going over 76 receiving yards for the first time since Week 1. Njoku's touchdown catch was a 71-yard reception from Baker Mayfield where he caught a ball about 13 yards past the line of scrimmage, slipped a tackle, and outran the Los Angeles defense to the end zone. While fantasy gamers will need to see more out of Njoku before trusting him in lineups, he's at least worth a look on the waiver wire this week. Njoku will face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6.
