Browns' David Njoku Limited in Practice Ahead of Patriots Game

David Njoku is dealing with a knee injury that has limited his participation in Cleveland Browns practices throughout the week as he recovers from the injury sustained in Week 6. He missed the Week 7 game against the Dolphins but has been described by coach Kevin Stefanski as "day-to-day" and "hopeful" to play in the upcoming Sunday game against the Patriots. Njoku's full participation in practice on Thursday or Friday will be crucial for avoiding an injury designation for the game. Similarly, wide receiver Jerry Jeudy also had limited practice on Thursday due to a knee issue but is making progress, having not practiced on Wednesday. Jeudy's ability to practice fully on Friday could help him avoid an injury designation for the Patriots game as well. Both players are trending towards playing but with some uncertainty remaining regarding their availability for Week 8.
