Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. remains a question mark for the team's Week 9 matchup, according to the latest injury report released Sunday. The rookie pass-catcher has been managing a lingering issue that limited his practice participation throughout the week.
Head coach Kevin Stefanski indicated Friday that Fannin's availability would likely come down to a game-time decision. The former Bowling Green standout has emerged as a reliable target in the Browns' passing attack, recording 22 receptions for 247 yards and two touchdowns through the first eight weeks of the season.
If Fannin is unable to suit up, Cleveland would likely lean more heavily on veteran David Njoku and second-year tight end Jordan Akins in two-tight end sets. The Browns enter Week 9 with a 3-5 record, looking to snap a two-game losing streak.
