Back to practice squad Wilkins reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday.

Impact Wilkins was elevated ahead of Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, but he was a healthy scratch for the contest. He joined the active roster in case Jerome Ford (ankle) was unable to play, but Ford was active for the game. Wilkins will now continue to wait for his first appearance with Cleveland.

Inactive Sunday Wilkins (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Impact The Browns elevated Wilkins from their practice squad ahead of Week 8 action, with Jerome Ford (ankle) listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. However, now that it has been confirmed that Ford will be available, Wilkins won't be needed after all, with Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong also available in Cleveland's backfield.

Promoted to active roster The Browns elevated Wilkins to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Wilkins' elevation comes with Jerome Ford (ankle) listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks. Wilkins signed with the Browns' practice squad Tuesday after being let go by the team at the end of training camp ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. If Ford is unable to suit up versus Seattle, Wilkins should slot into a depth backfield role behind Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong.

Browns elevate RB Jordan Wilkins and OT Ty Nsekhe from practice squad vs. Seahawks The Cleveland Browns brought up running back Jordan Wilkins and offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe for some much-needed depth in Week 8.

Could serve as third back Sunday Wilkins will be called up to Cleveland's active roster Sunday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilkins was signed to the practice squad earlier in the week, as the Browns prepare depth at a position beset with injury. The report assumes Jerome Ford (ankle) will sit out Sunday against the Seahawks, but he showed positive signs during late-week workouts and is deemed questionable for the 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. If Ford is out, Wilkins, who is getting up to speed on the offense, would likely be added to the 53-man roster and serve as the third back behind Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong.

Browns Sign P.J. Walker to 53-Man Roster; Add Jordan Wilkins, Nate McCrary to the Practice Squad Browns make it official in adding backup quarterback to active roster and two running backs to the practice squad.

Returns to Cleveland The Browns signed Wilkins to their practice squad Tuesday, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Wilkins spent this past offseason with Cleveland, but he ended up missing the team's 53-man roster and getting released in late August. The 29-year-old's most recent in-game action came with the Colts in 2022, and throughout his five-year NFL career, he's recorded 1,009 rushing yards and four touchdowns.

Gets eight touches in loss Wilkins had six carries for 23 yards and two receptions for 14 yards in Sunday's loss at the Giants.

Impact Wilkins played on 10 of the offense's 58 snaps and had more carries than Deon Jackson amid a blowout loss. Meanwhile, Zack Moss had 15 carries in a starting role. Wilkins could get a significant share of the playing time in the season finale this week against Houston, but it's hard to predict what the Colts will do on offense in a meaningless game.

Signed to active roster The Colts signed Wilkins to the active roster Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Wilkins was elevated for Weeks 9 and 10, totaling six rushing attempts for 31 yards while securing four of five targets for 15 yards across 21 offensive snaps. However, he'll get an official spot on the active roster with Jonathan Taylor (ankle) on IR for the remainder of the campaign. Wilkins figures to serve as a depth option behind Zack Moss and Deon Jackson.

Rejoins practice squad The Colts sent Wilkins back to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Wilkins played just three offensive snaps in Sunday's Week 10 win over the Raiders, but he was fairly productive in the limited role, turning three carries into 18 yards. He actually tallied the second-most totes among Indianapolis running backs, as Jonathan Taylor (60 snaps) functioned as the workhorse with 22 carries for 147 yards and a touchdown. Wilkins' chance to be elevated again Week 11 may depend on whether Deon Jackson (knee) is able to play.

Three carries in backup role Wilkins had three carries for 18 yards in Sunday's win at Las Vegas.

Impact Wilkins played just three snaps on offense, and Zack Moss played just one snap, as Jonathan Taylor (60 snaps) got almost all the playing time now that he's healthy and Nyhiem Hines has been traded. Wilkins looks like the primary backup as long as Deon Jackson (knee) is out, but that may be a very small role barring another Taylor injury.

Elevated from practice squad Indianapolis elevated Wilkins from its practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game at the Raiders.

Impact It will be the second consecutive week Wilkins is active for the Colts after he picked up 28 scrimmage yards on seven touches in Week 9. After Week 10, he will be eligible for only one more elevation from the practice squad before he would have to be signed to the team's active roster in order to suit up.

NOVEMBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Reverts to practice squad The Colts reverted Wilkins to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Wilkins saw his first action of the season in Sunday's Week 9 loss to New England, playing 19 of 62 offensive snaps and finishing with three carries for 13 yards and four catches on five targets for 15 yards. His presence was needed in the absence of Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and with Zack Moss not yet ready to play following his trade to the club. Wilkins' chance of another elevation in Week 10 will likely hinge on Taylor's availability, though Phillip Lindsay is also on the team's practice squad and could receive consideration if Taylor is sidelined.

Totals 28 yards in season debut Wilkins rushed the ball three times for 13 yards in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Patriots. He added four receptions on five targets for 15 yards.

Impact Wilkins was active for the first time this season and operated as the primary backup to Deon Jackson. His day was highlighted by his work as a pass catcher, as he led the team with four receptions -- though none of those looks came down the field. It's unclear whether Jonathan Taylor (ankle) or Zack Moss (ankle) will be active for a Week 10 matchup against the Raiders, and their status will likely dictate Wilkins' opportunity in that matchup.

Elevated for Week 9 Wilkins was elevated from the Colts' practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilkins joined the Colts' practice squad Wednesday to provide depth after the team traded away Nyheim Hines. With Jonathan Taylor (ankle) sidelined, Wilkins and Phillip Lindsay are expected to back up Deon Jackson out of the backfield.

Impact Wilkins was drafted by the Colts in the fifth round of the 2018 Draft and rushed for more than 300 yards in each of his first three seasons in Indianapolis. However, he saw just one offensive snap across five appearances -- split between Indianapolis and Tennessee -- last year and ended the 2021 campaign on the Titans' practice squad.

Let go by Tennessee The Titans released Wilkins on Tuesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wilkins ended last season on the Titans' practice squad and signed a contract with Tennessee in March, but he's among the first wave of cuts ahead of Tuesday's 85-man roster deadline. The 2018 fifth-round pick played just one offensive snap across five appearances -- split between Indianapolis and Tennessee -- last year after rushing for at least 300 yards and one touchdown in each of his first three seasons in the NFL with the Colts.
