TE questionable

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku was placed on the covid-19 reserve list Tuesday and could miss Sunday’s crucial matchup against AFC North-leading Baltimore. Njoku leads Cleveland with 407 yards receiving and he scored the Browns’ only touchdown in a 16-10 loss to the Ravens on Nov. 28. The loss of Njoku would be a major blow to the Browns (6-6), who can’t afford another loss if they hope to make the playoffs. Plus, tight end Harrison Bryant is expected to miss Sunday’s game with a high ankle sprain. Njoku posted on Twitter that he’s not having any symptoms, saying “Smh I don’t feel a thing.” Njoku hasn’t been ruled out yet, but he’ll have to be symptom free and provide two negative tests in a 24hour period to be eligible. Without Njoku, quarterback Baker Mayfield would be missing one of his best deep threats. Njoku, a firstround pick in 2017, has 27 catches and three touchdowns this season. He had three grabs for 35 yards in the first matchup with Baltimore. The Browns were off Tuesday but signed Mike Forristall, an undrafted rookie tight end from Alabama, to the active roster.
