Quinshon Judkins is a game-time decision for Sunday’s game against the Ravens. He will work out pregame to determine his status, according to Ian Rapoport.

What happened

Judkins is dealing with an ankle injury. He practiced just once this week, sources told Rapoport. Underdog NFL reports it is a foot injury.

Linebacker Carson Schwesinger will also work out pregame, with optimism that he goes. Browns defensive tackle Mason Graham, listed as questionable for the game, is not expected to play, according to Adam Schefter.

Sleeper currently tags Judkins as questionable with a lower-leg injury.

Context

Judkins has 56.3 PPR points this season. He has 73 carries for 221 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. He also has 18 receptions for 102 receiving yards on 20 targets. His season snap share is 60 percent. He is projected for 10.3 PPR points this week.

In Week 5, Judkins had 14 carries for 44 rushing yards and three receptions for six receiving yards, totaling 8.0 PPR points. In Week 4, he had 17 carries for 53 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, plus six catches for 43 receiving yards on seven targets, for 21.6 PPR points.

Timeline

On Oct. 15, Adam Schefter reported Judkins did not practice Wednesday and was in danger of missing the game, and Underdog NFL reported the ankle injury. On Oct. 16, Underdog NFL reported Dylan Sampson was limited in practice Thursday with a knee issue, and that he did not practice Wednesday.

Depth chart

Jaleel McLaughlin is RB2 on the Browns depth chart. He has 9.1 PPR points this season, with two carries for 31 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown in four games.

Audric Estime is RB3. Sleeper projects him for 2.6 PPR points this week.

Rap: Quinshon Judkins (foot) a game-time decision for Week 6.

#Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle) will workout pregame to determine his status, sources say. He practiced just once this week. Meanwhile, LB Carson Schwesinger (ankle) will do the same, with optimism that he goes. [Quoting @AdamSchefter: "Browns DT Mason Graham, listed as questionable for today’s Week 6 game against the Ravens, is not expected to play today."]

🏈 Fantasy impact

Judkins’ pregame workout will determine his availability. If he is active, he is a viable RB2 in fantasy lineups given his workload, but managers should have a pivot ready in case he is ruled out. Jaleel McLaughlin would be next in line and would see an expanded role, though his season production (9.1 PPR points, 2.3 PPR points per game) makes him a risky flex option. Audric Estime could also mix in. If Judkins is out, Raheim Sanders, who has 22.7 PPR points this season, could be a deeper league dart throw, though he is behind McLaughlin and Estime on the depth chart.
