David Njoku Health, Injury Updates & History

Njoku sustained an ankle injury in Week 1 and missed the next three weeks, a hamstring injury saw hi...

Not seen at practice on Thursday with a knee injury that he's been managing, he missed Wednesday's practice as well, without a full practice session it's unlikely he'll be able to go this weekend for the W17 game vs the Dolphins, it should be noted that Cleveland is out of playoff contention

Njoku practiced for the first time in two weeks and is "very motivated to play" this week vs the Bengals in W16

Wednesday marked the fourth consecutive practice that Njoku has missed with his hamstring injury, head coach Kevin Stefanski was hopeful that Njoku would be ready to play this week vs the Bengals, but so far it is not looking good, he will continue to be monitored as he'll have two more chances to practice this week

Still not practicing on Friday with the hamstring injury he's been managing, lowering his chances of suiting up for W15 against the Chiefs, especially given the Browns have very low playoff chances

Tweaked his hamstring in the second quarter of the game in W14, he stayed in the game and finished all reps, but now is missing time from the hamstring injury, not a good trajectory, it seems likely with the Browns having nothing to play for that Njoku would miss this week vs the Chiefs

Carries no injury designation heading into TNF in W12 with the listed knee injury

Was limited in practice on Thursday and is trending in the direction of playing with the ankle injury he's been managing, the Friday report will designate his official status for Sunday and will continue to be monitored

Returned to practice today while managing an ankle injury, he's been out since Week 2 but he will need to be evaluated at the end of the week for an official determination of his status for Week 5

Has been ruled out of Week 4's matchup against the Raiders with the ankle injury he's been managing since Week 2, he is avoiding IR and could return by Week 5
