Kareem Hunt Officially Questionable Against Cowboys

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (groin) was a limited participant in practice on Friday, and he's officially questionable for Week 4 against the Cowboys. While this is one to watch Sunday morning, Hunt is reportedly expected to play. The Browns continue to involve both Nick Chubb and Hunt heavily in their offense, which has […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Good To Go For Week 4

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (back) was a full participant in practice on Friday and is good to go for Week 4 against the Cowboys.

RB Insurance Report: Essential Adds and Backfield Updates

Chris Carson often plays at a fantasy RB1 level when he is available. But he has a checkered injury history that even preceded his college days. So when I drafted him in several leagues this season, I made sure to take Carlos Hyde later on as an insurance pick every time. So when Carson went […]

Fantasy Football Buy or Sell - Week 4

The fantasy stonks market is always a fun one to evaluate.

Our Week 4 GPP DFS stacks definitely have a common thread to them, but we'll get to them in a minute.

And I […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Working Through Back Injury

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (back) was added to the injury report on Thursday with a back injury that he's working through. Beckham was officially limited in Thursday's practice, so it looks like he still has a good shot at suiting up in Week 4 against the Cowboys. Through three games in 2020, […]

Browns Defense Not Recommended In Week 4

The Cleveland Browns Defense draws a tough road matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Despite the unit coming off an excellent outing against Washington in Week 3, the Browns are not a recommended fantasy option vs. Dallas this weekend. The Cowboys sport an explosive offense and are installed as 4.5-point favorites for Week […]

Kareem Hunt Won't Practice Thursday

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that running back Kareem Hunt (groin) will not practice on Thursday. This is one to watch, as Hunt also missed practice on Wednesday. Even though Nick Chubb is the team's lead running back, Hunt has been involved enough in this offense to warrant weekly RB2 consideration. That would […]

Austin Hooper A TE2 In Week 4

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper is off to a slow start with his new team. Through three games, Hooper has just seven receptions for 62 scoreless yards and hasn't drawn more than four targets in a game. He does have the potential to break out in Week 4 as the Browns travel to Dallas […]

Jarvis Landry A WR3 Against Dallas In Week 4

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry heads to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in Week 4. Landry is off to a quiet start, averaging just 4.0 catches per game through the first three weeks of the season. While he has descended to WR3 status in fantasy, Landry does have the potential for a big […]

Odell Beckham Jr. A Solid WR2 In Week 4

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is off to a modest start in 2020. Through three games has hauled in 11 passes for 155 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets. He has the potential for a big game in Week 4 against the Dallas Cowboys as Dallas has an explosive offense and a […]

Nick Chubb Could Be In Line For A Big Week

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb travels to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in Week 4. Chubb could see an increased workload as Kareem Hunt's status for Week 4 is in question after he missed Wednesday's practice with a groin injury. If Hunt is unable to suit up, Chubb can be treated as a […]

Baker Mayfield Could See Plenty Of Volume In Week 4

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield heads to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in Week 4. The Browns have leaned heavily on the run through the first three games of the season, which has capped Mayfield's weekly upside. The third-year quarterback is averaging just 28.3 pass attempts per game and only topped 23 attempts once, […]

Kareem Hunt Misses Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. It's definitely something to watch heading into Week 4 against the Cowboys, especially if Hunt doesn't return to practice on Thursday. A limited or inactive Hunt would give Nick Chubb a higher ceiling as an RB1 this weekend. Even though Hunt isn't the […]
