BEREA, Ohio — Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski ruled out tight end David Njoku for Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Njoku returned to practice on Thursday for the first time since suffering an ankle injury in the season opener, but Stefanski said Njoku will not practice on Friday and will miss his third straight game.
Stefanski also ruled out starting offensive tackles Jedrick Wills Jr. and Jack Conklin. Wills injured a knee against the New York Giants, his first game back from his season-ending knee injury last year. A source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler that an MRI came back clean. Conklin has not played this season as he returns from a severe knee injury he suffered in Week 1 of the 2023 season. He suffered a hamstring injury last week that Stefanski said was a “minor setback” but would not keep him out for multiple weeks.
Running back Pierre Strong Jr., who suffered a hamstring injury in Week 2, was also ruled out.
