The Browns didn't get a 1st round pick last draft. They didn't get a 4th round pick either.
Their 2nd round pick DT Michael Hall, has been placed on the commissioners exempt list because he is expected to be suspended for domestic abuse. He will not play against the Cowboys.
Meanwhile, QB Deshawn Watson is experiencing soreness in his arm. His shoulder on that side was surgically repaired.
The Cleveland Browns just activated their two veteran starting OT's, Jack Conklin and Jedrick Wills from their injury list. Both sustained ligament damage during the 2023 season. Wills had been out since the 8th game and Conklin went out in the first week. Both were the starters from 2020 to 2022. The Cowboys game will be their first action and their next practice will be the first since their injuries.
Not only is Chubb out for the Cowboys game, just about every other Browns RB is on the injury list. Ford is the only exception. Pierre Strong and D'Onta Foreman are questionable.
Two valuable Browns players are also dealing with injury issues. CB Greg Newsome II was just activated. David Njoku returned to practice after an undisclosed injury and is still listed as questionable.
