Flowers' injury a concern for the Ravens after their AFC North-clinching victory over Cleveland
Baltimore’s division-clinching victory over Cleveland was about as routine as expectedJANUARY 5, 2025 • Associated Press
Dustin Hopkins - Finishes on high note Hopkins converted his lone field-goal attempt and extra-point kick in Saturday's 35-10 loss to Baltimore in Week 18.
Impact Hopkins buried a chip shot from 23 yards early in the second quarter before the game got away from the Browns, who were thinking only about touchdowns the rest of the way. The four points scored were the most for a Cleveland kicker since Week 12. After a very successful 2023 -- one that resulted in a three-year contract in the offseason -- Hopkins went the other way in 2024. Part of that is attributable to an offense that fell apart, but Hopkins made just 18 of 27 (67 percent) of his field-goal tries. That prompted the Browns bringing in kickers to challenge him, and head coach Kevin Stefanski made him inactive for Week 15. The offseason for the 3-14 Browns will bring change, which could include competition for Hopkins.

Jamari Thrash - Operates as third wideout Thrash did not catch his lone target and played a season-high 32 snaps on offense in Saturday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens in Week 18.
Impact Thrash was elevated to third on the depth chart at wide receiver with Michael Woods (knee) inactive for the regular-season finale. Thrash, whom the Browns drafted in the fifth round of the 2024 draft, never made an impact during his rookie season. He finished with three catches on seven targets for 22 yards. Cleveland's offense is expected to undergo a renovation during the offseason, which could result in Thrash having a more meaningful role.

James Proche II - Special-teams role in finale Proche returned one kickoff for 19 yards and was not targeted in Saturday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens in Week 18.
Impact Proche filled the return role on punts, much like he's done whenever the Browns added him to the active roster this season, and had his first kickoff return. He finished the season with 19 punt returns for 172 yards and three receptions (three targets) for 21 yards.

Kaden Davis - Makes NFL debut Davis returned three kickoffs for 107 yards and was untargeted in Saturday's 35-10 loss to Baltimore in Week 18.
Impact Davis was signed to the active roster ahead of the season finale and made his NFL debut. He played 15 snaps on offense but made his biggest impact on special teams. In his one active game, Davis did enough to rank fourth on the team in kickoff-return yards. There are many unknowns as the organization turns its attention to what is expected to be an roster makeover during the offseason. Davis could sign a reserve/future contract and be on the radar for a role in 2025.

Jacob Kibodi - Auditions in finale Kibdoi had five carries for 24 yards and caught one of three targets for 15 yards in Saturday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens in Week 18.
Impact Kibodi, an undrafted free agent running back out Louisiana-Lafayette, was on and off with the Saints organization in 2024 before joining Cleveland's practice squad in December. He was elevated to the active roster and made his NFL debut due to several injuries in the backfield. In addition to the six touches on 17 offensive snaps, Kibodi had a couple of red-zone targets. Like many areas on Cleveland's offense, the backfield is expected to undergo a makeover in 2025. Whether Kibodi is part of that is still to be determined, but he could eventually sign a reserve/future contract, putting him to the team's 90-man offseason roster.
