INJURIES
Active Sunday Schwesinger (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Jets.
Impact The rookie middle linebacker suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Browns' Week 8 loss to the Patriots and then missed two practice sessions following the team's Week 9 bye. At the same time, the injury was never believed to be "major," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Schwesinger has enjoyed a strong rookie season, with 64 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one interception.

Questionable for Sunday Schwesinger (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact The rookie from UCLA didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday due to an ankle injury, but he's still got a chance to suit up in Week 10. Schwesinger has had an impressive start to his rookie campaign, recording 64 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one interception across eight contests. If he's held out Sunday, Jerome Baker is expected to have an expanded role in the Browns' linebacker corps.

Remains sidelined Thursday Schwesinger (ankle) isn't practicing Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Schwesinger is still recovering from a high-ankle sprain sustained against the Patriots in Week 8. If the rookie linebacker sits out Sunday against the Jets, Jerome Baker or Easton Macarenas-Arnold could get more opportunities in Cleveland's banged-up linebacking corps.

Misses Wednesday's practice Schwesinger (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The rookie linebacker from UCLA sustained a high-ankle sprain in the Browns' Week 8 loss to the Patriots, so it's no surprise he's sidelined following the team's Week 9 bye. Although Schwesinger's injury isn't considered to be "major," he'll likely be held out of the Week 10 matchup against the Jets unless he can upgrade to at least a limited practice session Thursday or Friday.

Sustains high-ankle sprain Schwesinger sustained a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Patriots, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The 22-year-old played 66 total snaps (57 on defense, nine on special teams) and recorded five total tackles and an interception prior to exiting Sunday's loss with an ankle issue. Although Schwesinger sustained a high-ankle sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network revealed that it's not believed to be "major," and he'll be reevaluated following Cleveland's Week 9 bye. The rookie linebacker has been an integral part of the Browns' defense thus far, recording a team-leading 64 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one interception over his first eight NFL games. Mohamoud Diabate and Jerome Baker will both likely have expanded defensive roles is Schwesigner misses time.

Hurts ankle, slated for MRI Schwesinger injured his ankle during Sunday's Week 8 loss to New England and is slated for an MRI, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Schwesinger was hurt midway through the fourth quarter and didn't return. He had a nice game before getting injured, tallying five tackles and an interception. The results of Schwesinger's MRI should provide some clarity about whether he's at risk of missing time. However, Cleveland has a Week 9 bye, so Schwesinger will have some extra time to recover before the Browns' next game, which will take place Sunday, Nov. 9 against the Jets.
