Harold Fannin Jr. Looking to Rebound Vs. the Titans in Week 7
Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. will look to rebound from two consecutive rough outings when he faces the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. Fannin Jr. caught only one of three targets for nine yards last week against the Baltimore Ravens and managed just one catch for four yards on four targets two weeks ago against the New York Jets. The Titans pass defense allows 220.5 passing yards per game, 16th in the league, and six passing touchdowns allowed. Fannin Jr. has three receiving touchdowns this season with 19 receptions for 166 receiving yards. The tight end out of Bowling Green has been inconsistent this season, but has a season-high of nine targets against the Carolina Panthers in Week 3. Fannin Jr. has a good matchup on the road, and with two receivers missing practice time this week due to injuries, he could emerge as a major target for quarterback Deshaun Watson in Week 7.

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.

Quinshon Judkins Has Good Matchup In Week 7 Return
Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins has a good matchup in his return to the field in Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans, who rank in the bottom third of the league in rushing defense. Judkins missed Week 6 with an ankle injury and has a nice matchup with Tennessee, which allows 122.5 rushing yards per game which ranks No. 21 in the NFL and has given up six rushing touchdowns. Judkins, the Ohio State product, has not had an overwhelming start to the season with just 3.0 yards per rush and one rushing touchdown on the season. But he has carried the ball at least 12 times in each game he has played, and he has at least two catches in the passing game in each game with a game-high of six receptions against Pittsburgh in Week 4. The likely return of Dylan Sampson (questionable) could mean that Judkins loses out on some carries, but his good matchup and his involvement in the passing game make him a solid start in Week 7.

Deshaun Watson Worth A Look In Week 7
Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is a decent starting option in Week 7's game against the Tennessee Titans. Watson was 16-for-26 passing for 164 yards and no touchdowns and no interceptions in last week's 13-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. This week he gets a little bit better of a matchup against the Titans, even if it is on the road. The Titans rank in the middle of the pack at 16th in the NFL in pass defense, allowing 220.5 passing yards per game with six passing touchdowns allowed. Watson has 1,174 passing yards this season with seven passing touchdowns compared to just two interceptions. The veteran quarterback needs to show more touchdown ability to be considered a safe option. The good news is his top two wide receiver options, Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion Jr., have been cleared to play after missing some practice time this week. Despite his good touchdown-to-interception ratio, he carries a bit of risk in playing him as a QB1. Nevertheless, this might be a game to look Watson's way should you need a bye-week replacement at the quarterback position.

Dylan Sampson Questionable but Expected to Play in Week 7
Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Head coach Todd Monken is optimistic about Sampson's availability after the second-year back missed five consecutive games with a knee injury suffered in the season opener. Sampson returned to practice last week and was limited Wednesday and Thursday, but has not yet been activated from injured reserve. If cleared, he could contribute as a pass-catching complement to Quinshon Judkins (ankle), who is set to return after missing Week 6. Sampson caught 33 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie in 2025, although his uncertain initial workload makes him a deep-league PPR stash rather than a Week 7 starting option.

Quinshon Judkins Cleared to Play in Week 7
Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was removed from Friday's final injury report and will suit up in Sunday's Week 7 contest against the Tennessee Titans, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Meanwhile, running back Dylan Sampson (knee), who is still on Injured Reserve, is listed as questionable. The 22-year-old Judkins did not play in the team's Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens last Sunday due to an ankle injury, but he is good to go after a one-game absence and will be back on the RB2 radar despite his inefficient play so far this year. In his first five contests in his second year in the league, Judkins has carried the ball 73 times for 221 yards and one touchdown on the ground, averaging just 3.0 yards per carry after he averaged 3.6 yards per carry on 230 carries as a rookie in 2025. He has added 18 receptions on 20 targets for 102 yards and no scores as a pass-catcher in the Browns' offense. With Judkins returning this weekend, fantasy managers can drop Jaleel McLaughlin after he led Cleveland's backfield in Week 6.

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.

Dylan Sampson Continues to be Limited as his Return Nears
Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson (knee) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Thursday for the second straight day, according to The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot. Sampson is trying to return from a knee injury that he suffered in the season opener, and if he can upgrade to a full practice on Friday, the Browns could officially activate him from Injured Reserve. The Browns should also be getting starting back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) back this weekend after he sat out of the Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. The 22-year-old Sampson entered the regular season as the change-of-pace RB2 behind Judkins, so he should return to that role upon his activation from IR. Before getting hurt in Week 1, Sampson did not have a single touch on offense. He had 65 carries for 175 yards and no touchdowns as a rookie last year, adding 33 catches for 271 yards and two touchdowns through the air. Sampson is an RB handcuff in deep PPR leagues if you have Judkins rostered.

Quinshon Judkins Limited Again in Thursday's Practice
Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was limited in practice again on Thursday for the second straight day, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. An ankle injury caused Judkins to miss the Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens, but barring a setback in practice on Friday, the 22-year-old second-year back is on the right track to return this weekend when the Browns go on the road to take on the Tennessee Titans. In addition to Judkins, Dylan Sampson (knee) was limited for a second straight day and is on track to come off Injured Reserve to play on Sunday. It is good news for Cleveland's backfield after they were down to Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime in the upset win over the Ravens. Judkins has been inefficient so far in his sophomore season with 3.0 yards per carry, but he is trending up as an RB2 play for fantasy managers against the Titans as the Browns' starting running back.

Browns Optimistic That Dylan Sampson Will Return in Week 7
Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken said that he is optimistic that running back Dylan Sampson (knee) will be able to come off Injured Reserve and play on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7, per ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. Sampson injured his left knee in the season-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and has been on IR since, but the 22-year-old appears to be closing in on his return. Meanwhile, 22-year-old Quinshon Judkins (ankle) is also trending in the right direction to play this weekend against the Titans after he was inactive in the Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Sampson will be a waiver-wire target in deeper fantasy leagues or for managers who are desperate for RB depth, but he is expected to return to a complementary role behind Judkins. The former fourth-rounder in 2025 from Tennessee did not have a single touch before getting injured in Week 1, and he had 175 rushing yards on 65 carries (2.7 yards per attempt) with 33 catches for 271 yards and two touchdowns as a receiver in 15 games as a rookie in 2025.

Browns Optimistic That Quinshon Judkins Will Play in Week 7
Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken said he is optimistic that running back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) will be able to play on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Judkins did not play in the Week 6 upset win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens due to an ankle injury, but he appears to be making progress and could return this weekend to face the one-win Titans. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on the 22-year-old's practice status from Wednesday through Friday. Without Judkins against Baltimore, Jaleel McLaughlin was the team's lead back, although backup Audric Estime is the one who found the end zone on the ground. Judkins should return to RB2 territory in fantasy if he returns against Tennessee, although the impending return of Dylan Sampson (knee) from Injured Reserve is not great news for Judkins' overall upside. The second-year back from Ohio State is Cleveland's clear lead back, but he has not been efficient in his first five games, averaging 3.0 yards per carry on 73 rushing attempts for 221 yards.

Audric Estime a Short-Term Waiver Option Amid RB Injuries in Cleveland
Cleveland Browns running back Audric Estime endeared himself to Browns fans immediately by finding the end zone in his debut with the team in the Week 6 upset win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Estime carried the ball nine times for 19 yards and a touchdown and was not involved in the passing game. The 23-year-old former fifth-rounder in 2024 from Notre Dame was signed by the Browns after injuries to starter Quinshon Judkins (groin) and Raheim Sanders (hip). Dylan Sampson (knee) is also still on Injured Reserve. Jaleel McLaughlin saw the same number of carries as Estime on Sunday and rushed for a more efficient 41 yards while also catching all four of his targets for 14 yards as a receiver. Estime's 19 offensive snaps paled in comparison to McLaughlin's 39. Estime will only be in play as a flex option in the deepest of fantasy leagues in Week 7 against the one-win Tennessee Titans on Sunday if Judkins misses a second straight game. Sampson could also return from IR to play this weekend, which would render Estime essentially useless in all leagues.

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.

Deshaun Watson a Viable QB Streamer to Target on Waivers
Across six games in 2026, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has completed 63.8% of his pass attempts for 1,174 yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions. The 31-year-old has also added some fantasy value with his legs, rushing for 196 yards on 45 attempts. After a relatively hot start to the year, Watson's production has slowed down of late. Over the last two weeks, totaled just 319 passing yards and one touchdown while leading the Cleveland offense to just 25 total points. However, the Browns have a significantly easier matchup coming up in Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans. Through six weeks, Tennessee ranks in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.5). Given the matchup, Watson could be a solid quarterback streamer for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire ahead of Week 7.
