Quinshon Judkins did not practice Wednesday and is in danger of missing Sunday’s game against the Ravens, according to Adam Schefter. Judkins is dealing with an ankle injury, per Underdog NFL.

What happened

Judkins was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday’s practice. Underdog NFL also reported that Dylan Sampson, a Cleveland running back, did not practice with a knee issue.

Context

Judkins is the Browns’ RB1 and has played in all five games this season. He has 56.3 PPR points on 73 carries for 221 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown, plus 20 targets for 18 receptions, 102 receiving yards and a 60% snap share. In Week 5 he had 8.0 PPR points on 14 carries for 44 yards and three catches for six yards.

Sampson is listed as Cleveland’s RB6. He has played in one game this season and has no recorded stats.

Depth chart

Jaleel McLaughlin is the RB2 behind Judkins. McLaughlin has played in four games and has 9.1 PPR points on two carries for 31 yards and one rushing touchdown, plus a 10% snap share. Audric Estime is the RB5 with a Week 6 projection of 2.5 PPR points. Raheim Sanders is RB7 and has 22.7 PPR points with nine carries for 43 yards and 11 catches for 74 yards.

What’s next

The Browns host the Ravens on Sunday, October 18. Sleeper projects Judkins for 9.1 PPR points in Week 6.

Quinshon Judkins (ankle), Dylan Sampson (knee) don't practice Wednesday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Judkins is the lead back, so any missed time creates opportunity. McLaughlin is the direct backup and would stand to benefit if Judkins sits, but his season line is thin — just two carries and one touchdown over four games. Sanders is more involved as a receiver with 11 catches for 74 yards, and could see more work in a passing-down role. If Judkins is ruled out, McLaughlin is likely the first waiver add, but Sanders is the better bet for PPR production. Sampson’s absence doesn’t change the picture much, as he is RB6 with no stats. Hold Judkins where possible; his season-long role is secure once healthy. Monitor practice reports later in the week.
