Browns starting RB Quinshon Judkins was spotted in a walking boot on his right foot in the locker room following Sunday’s loss to the Jets.  Judkins had 14 carries for 44 yards and 3 receptions for 6 yards on 4 targets, and did not exit the game due to any injury.  Still, the sight of a boot is worrisome given that it’s the same leg where Judkins suffered a broken fibula and dislocated ankle 10 months ago.

 

Judkins’ direct backup is Raheim “The Rocket” Sanders, but he suffered a hip injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game.  With Dylan Sampson still on IR, that leaves UDFA Jaleel McLaughlin and practice-squad addition Jaret Patterson as the Browns’ only remaining running backs.  Fantasy football managers must monitor this situation closely because McLaughlin shapes up as a priority waiver wire target for Judkins managers if both Judkins and Sanders miss time.  ~Jason Diaz
