KC Concepcion Jr. Off Injury Report, Not Start Worthy In Week 7
Cleveland Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. (calf/quadriceps) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. He was limited in both Wednesday and Thursday's practices, but was a full participant on Friday and is all systems go for Week 7. The Texas A&M product is coming off one of his best games in Week 6 against the Baltimore Ravens, catching four of six targets for 37 receiving yards. However, Concepcion Jr. hasn't yet shown the consistency needed to be counted on for fantasy rosters. He is averaging just 8.5 yards per reception this season and has yet to find the end zone. Until Concepcion Jr. becomes a more consistent pass-catcher who can score touchdowns, he's hard to plug into a fantasy starting lineup outside deep leagues. The matchup against the Titans is decent, but Concepcion Jr. is hard to trust as a starting receiver, making him mainly a FLEX option in deep leagues.

Denzel Boston Cleared, Low-End Starting WR In Week 7
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Denzel Boston (foot) has been cleared and has no injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Tennessee Titans. He played through the foot issue last week and was limited in practice, but he's cleared to play Sunday. Boston is coming off a home game against the Baltimore Ravens, where he caught just one pass on five targets for five yards. He is still averaging 20.3 yards per reception this season with 17 catches for 345 yards. Facing top cornerbacks Alontae Taylor and Cor'Dale Flott, Boston has a decent matchup and will look to get more involved in the passing game than he did last week. Boston has become the go-to deep threat for Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, but with Watson's inconsistent accuracy, Boston is a bit of a risky play in fantasy. He's a boom-or-bust option, but he is still the Browns' most consistent wide receiver week to week.

KC Concepcion Jr. Limited Again With Multiple Injuries
Cleveland Browns rookie first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. (calf, quadriceps) is dealing with multiple injuries this week and was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday for the second straight day, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Fellow rookie wideout Denzel Boston (foot) has also been limited in both practices this week, so they are not locks to play in Week 7 on the road against the Tennessee Titans. If we had to guess, though, we would expect both rookie pass-catchers to be active this weekend as they search for another win to stay atop the AFC North. In the first six games of his NFL career, Concepcion has caught 22 of 35 targets for 186 yards and no touchdowns while adding six rushing attempts for 11 yards. There is a lot to like about Concepcion long term, but he has been inconsistent so far, as veteran quarterback Deshaun Watson distributes the ball evenly in a passing attack that has left a lot to be desired. Fantasy managers should treat Concepcion as a WR3/flex upside play if he is active this Sunday.

Jerry Jeudy Back on the Waiver Radar After Leading Browns in Receiving?
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is only rostered in 4% of Yahoo leagues at the moment, but that number could be going north by the end of the week after his four-catch, 69-yard game in Sunday's 13-10 Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. Jeudy led the team in receiving, and it was also his highest yardage total through the first six weeks. The 27-year-old former first-rounder from Alabama did very little in the team's first five games, catching eight of his 15 targets for 81 yards and no trips to the end zone. He even had back-to-back contests in Weeks 2 and 3 where he gave fantasy managers a zero on the scoresheet. The disappointing part about his good game on Sunday is that his four targets were third on the team, and rookie pass-catchers KC Concepcion Jr. and Denzel Boston are both healthy and should continue to be the primary weapons for veteran quarterback Deshaun Watson. It was nice to see Jeudy get more involved for Cleveland in an impressive divisional upset, but most fantasy managers will want to see more in an offense that is definitely not turning any heads so far.

Denzel Boston a Bust for the First Time in Rookie Season
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Denzel Boston caught just one of his five targets for 15 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 6 win over the Baltimore Ravens. While Cleveland pulled off the upset victory at home, Boston was disappointing as he turned in the worst fantasy performance of his young career. This was the 22-year-old's first game with fewer than 8.0 PPR points, as well as just his second game with fewer than 12.5 PPR points. Prior to this week, Boston's name was gaining traction in Offensive Rookie of the Year conversations. Sunday's "bust" performance won't eliminate him from consideration for the award, but it definitely represents a stain on his season stat line. He'll look to bounce back in a much more favorable matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7.

KC Concepcion Jr. Not A Dependable WR In Week 6
Cleveland Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. has yet to find the end zone this season, and that should continue to be the case in Week 6 against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens defensive back duo of Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins should limit Concepcion to minimal production in this contest. Concepcion, the rookie out of Texas A&M, was knocked out of the Week 5 game against the New York Jets with a head injury after recording just one catch for five yards. He has been cleared, however, to return to action in Week 6. On the season, Concepcion has 18 catches for 149 receiving yards, which is good for 8.3 yards per reception. He has been used mostly on underneath and short routes which has limited his upside. The Ravens pass defense has limited the opposition to just five receiving touchdowns this year. Fellow rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston has clearly emerged as the downfield target of Deshaun Watson, and Concepcion will continue to be used sparingly as he looks for a breakout game in his rookie season.

Denzel Boston Emerging as Weekly Option In Week 6
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Denzel Boston is emerging as a solid big-play receiver in his rookie year, and that should continue in Week 6 against the Ravens. Boston has 16 catches for 330 receiving yards (20.6 yards per catch) and three receiving touchdowns so far this season. Boston caught a touchdown pass last week against the New York Jets and will look to build off his good performance. The rookie from Washington will face the defensive back duo of Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins, which will be a tough matchup, but Boston has become a reliable downfield threat and only needs a few chances to make a fantasy impact. Boston has seen a season-high seven targets in each of the past two games, suggesting he is continuing to take a step forward. Look for Boston to make the most of his opportunities again in Week 6 and deliver a solid fantasy line and provide viable FLEX upside.

KC Concepcion Jr. Cleared for Week 6
Cleveland Browns rookie first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. (concussion) has been cleared from the league's concussion protocol and does not have an injury designation for Week 6 on Sunday against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. Concepcion suffered a scary concussion on a head-to-head hit early in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, so it is a bit of a surprise that he will be available this weekend. The 22-year-old 24th overall pick back in April from Texas A&M has been a nice one-two punch with fellow rookie Denzel Boston in the Browns' offense, with both rookie receivers pushing veteran Jerry Jeudy down the depth chart. Concepcion has 18 receptions for 149 yards and is still searching for the first touchdown of his NFL career through his first five contests. Now that we know Concepcion will play against the Ravens, he will be in play as a WR4/flex option for fantasy managers in the divisional tilt.

Denzel Boston Fitting in Nicely in Cleveland
Cleveland Browns rookie second-round wide receiver Denzel Boston is the team's leading receiver through the first five games of his first season in the NFL, catching 16 of his 29 targets for 330 yards and three touchdowns. Meanwhile, rookie first-round receiver KC Concepcion Jr. has 18 catches for 149 yards and no touchdowns, and he went down early in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets with a scary concussion. Boston, 22, is on the Week 6 injury report with a foot injury, but he was limited in practice on Wednesday and should have a good chance to play this Sunday against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. He has had at least seven targets in three of the last four games and would see an even bigger target share this weekend if Concepcion cannot clear the league's concussion protocol by the weekend. Boston is the current betting favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year. The quick rise of both Boston and Concepcion has put Jerry Jeudy on the trade block. Boston should be considered a must-start against the Ravens, especially if Concepcion does not play.

KC Concepcion Jr. in Concussion Protocol, Will Practice Wednesday
Cleveland Browns rookie first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. (head), who suffered a concussion early in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, is in the league's concussion protocol, but he will practice on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. It is an encouraging sign that Concepcion is practicing early in the week, but he is not out of the woods yet and should still be considered questionable to play against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens this Sunday in Week 6. The 22-year-old from Texas A&M will likely need to upgrade to a full practice at some point by Friday in order to be cleared from the league's concussion protocol. Concepcion has 18 receptions for 149 yards on 29 targets through his first five NFL games, and he is still searching for his first career trip to paydirt. Despite the inconsistent production early on, it is clear that the Browns have made both Concepcion and fellow rookie wideout Denzel Boston a priority in the passing attack, leaving Jerry Jeudy out in the cold so far in 2026.

Jerry Jeudy Named as Possible Trade Candidate
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is a name to watch as a potential trade candidate, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano. Jeudy has caught just eight of 15 targets for 81 yards in five games this season, ranking sixth among Browns players. With the emergence of rookie wide receivers Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion, Jeudy's usage has decreased in 2026, except in Week 5, when Concepcion left early with a concussion. The former first-round pick has totaled over 800 yards in three of his first six years, including a 1,229-yard season in 2024 with the Browns. While it's unclear whether Jeudy will be traded or which landing spots to watch, fantasy managers should keep an eye on this situation.

Isaiah Bond Could See Expanded Role
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond could be looking at a larger role in the offense moving forward. In Week 5, Bond hauled in three of his seven targets for 74 yards during the loss to the New York Jets. Before this game, Bond had only two receptions for 12 yards on the season. He saw a larger role because KC Concepcion (concussion) was forced to exit early. It's unclear at the moment if Concepcion is going to be ready to play against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 6. If he remains out, Bond could see a high target share again this upcoming weekend. Fantasy managers in deep leagues who are seeking help at wide receiver should consider adding Bond.

Jerry Jeudy an Interesting Stash Option
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is someone worth looking at on the waiver wire ahead of Week 6. This past weekend, Jeudy hauled in three of his seven targets for 19 yards during the loss to the New York Jets. The seven targets were a season-high for Jeudy, who has struggled to get involved at times. The Browns could be looking his way more frequently with KC Concepcion (concussion) uncertain for the Week 6 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. According to Jordan Schultz, the Browns are attempting to move Jeudy ahead of the trade deadline. The 27-year-old is an intriguing stash option, given a possible bigger role or move elsewhere soon.

Jerry Jeudy Available With Trade Deadline Approaching
Cleveland Browns veteran wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is available with the Nov. 10 trade deadline approaching, according to Jordan Schultz, with the Browns looking for something in the early third- to fourth-round range in return. It is unclear if the Browns will be able to get that in return for a declining pass-catcher, but what is clear is that Cleveland is excited about their young receiver group of KC Concepcion Jr., Denzel Boston, and Isaiah Bond. The 27-year-old Jeudy, the former 15th overall pick by the Denver Broncos in 2020 from Alabama, has caught only eight of his 15 targets for 81 yards and no touchdowns through five games in 2026 in his third year in Cleveland. Jeudy played a season-high 81% of the offensive snaps in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, but that was likely only because Concepcion left the game early with a concussion. He played only 38% of the offensive snaps the week prior in the Thursday night win over the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. A trade out of town might be the only thing that makes fantasy managers consider adding Jeudy to their rosters off the waiver wire again this year.

KC Concepcion Jr. Ruled Out With Head Injury
Cleveland Browns rookie first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. (head) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 5 game against the New York Jets, according to Daniel Oyefusi. The rookie went down after taking a hit to the head earlier in the contest. No concussion diagnosis was included in the initial report. Concepcion entered Sunday with 17 receptions for 144 yards through four games, coming off his best outing of the season with five catches for 64 yards against Pittsburgh last week. Before leaving, Concepcion caught his only target for five yards.
