Browns beset by injuries on offense while still trying to evaluate Shedeur Sanders

Shedeur Sanders faces a tough evaluation with the Cleveland Browns as they deal with injuries

3 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Records 12 touches in loss Sanders rushed 11 times for 42 yards and brought in his only target for four yards in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Impact Quinshon Judkins exited the game in the second quarter with what was eventually diagnosed as a broken fibula and dislocated ankle, per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, and Sanders finished as the team leader rush attempts. Backfield mate Trayveon Williams operated more as a change-of-pace option, and although Judkins will naturally miss the final two games of the season, Sanders and Williams could be joined by Dylan Sampson (calf), who logged a second straight absence due to calf and hand injuries, for a Week 17 home matchup against the Steelers next Sunday, which would muddy the outlook for all three backs to a degree.

Activated but does not play Sanders was added to the active roster but did not play in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Bears in Week 15.

Impact Sanders was poised to pick up some opportunities for the first time since the season opener, as both Dylan Sampson (calf, inactive) and Jerome Ford (shoulder, IR) were unavailable, but it was the newly signed Trayveon Williams serving as the top backup to Quinshon Judkins. It speaks volumes that Sanders, who has been with the team all season and is familiar with the playbook, did not get on the field.

Inactive Sunday Sanders (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Raiders.

Impact Sanders hasn't played since the Browns' Week 1 loss to the Bengals, where he rushed three times on three snaps. The team will go with a three-man backfield with Quinshon Judkins, Jerome Ford and Dylan Sampson again.

Sitting out in Week 2 Sanders (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Impact Sanders suited up as the Browns' No. 3 running back in the team's 17-16 loss to the Bengals in the season opener and was able to make an impact in his limited snaps, finishing with three yards and a touchdown on three carries. However, with rookie second-round pick Quinshon Judkins (not injury related) having been reinstated from the commissioner's exempt list and added back to the 53-man roster after turning in full practices Thursday and Friday, Sanders will slide to fourth on the depth chart at running back and won't dress Sunday. Unless the Browns lose Judkins, Jerome Ford or Dylan Sampson to an injury in a given week, inactive statuses could start to become the norm for Sanders, an undrafted rookie out of South Carolina.

In line to be active Sanders could be part of the active roster for Week 2 against the Ravens with the unsettled status of Quinshon Judkins, who is still on the Commissioner's exempt list.

Impact Sanders, who was active in Week 1's 17-16 loss to the Bengals, only played three snaps but one of those was a one-yard touchdown plunge. He finished the game with three carries for three yards. Judkins missed all of the preseason and didn't sign a contract until the day prior to the season opener. He got on the practice field Thursday for the first time since mandatory minicamp in June and may not be up to speed for Sunday's game at Baltimore. The Browns were granted a two-week roster exemption for Judkins, so won't count toward the roster if he remains held out Week 2.

Claimed on waivers The Browns were awarded a waiver claim for Sanders on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact The undrafted rookie out of South Carolina failed to stick on with the Chargers but now gets a second NFL opportunity in short order. The Browns cut Pierre Strong on Tuesday, leaving them with only Jerome Ford, Dylan Sampson and Quinshon Judkins in the backfield. Judkins remains unsigned and uncertain for Week 1, likely setting up a timeshare between Ford and Sampson. It's a situation where an injury could quickly thrust Sanders into playing time if he manages to stick around for at least a few weeks.

Cut by Los Angeles Sanders was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday.

Impact Sanders signed with Los Angeles as an undrafted free agent in April, ultimately putting together an impressive preseason. The running back turned 28 carries into 101 yards and two scores, while also adding five catches for 29 yards and a 21-yard kickoff return over three contests. If he clears waivers, Sanders appears to be a strong candidate to hang around as a member of the Chargers' practice squad.
