The Browns elevated running back Jordan Wilkins from the practice squad ahead of the team's upcoming meeting in Seattle. Under normal circumstances, this move wouldn't be newsworthy. However, it may paint a bigger picture, potentially signaling an impending absence by Jerome Ford (ankle), who remains questionable for Week 8. Fortunately for Cleveland, Kareem Hunt (thigh) was removed from the injury report, so he'll be the No. 1 option out of the backfield versus the Seahawks. Pierre Strong Jr. should also get some work, so fantasy managers shouldn't consider adding Wilkins in any format, considering the move was likely made purely for depth purposes.

The Cleveland Browns signed free-agent running back Jordan Wilkins to their practice squad on Tuesday. Wilkins will join the squad after the Browns released Deon Jackson earlier in the week. Wilkins spent some time with Cleveland during this past training camp before being cut but he will now return to provide some depth after Jerome Ford injured his ankle during a Week 7 win. If Ford ends up missing some time, Wilkins could be elevated to the 53-man roster as the RB3 in Cleveland behind Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong Jr.

The Browns released running back Jordan Wilkins on Sunday. The 29-year-old signed with the Browns only a few weeks ago, so his tenure in Cleveland was short-lived. Wilkins, best known for his time with the Colts, has appeared in 54 games during his career, rushing for 1,009 yards and four touchdowns off 209 carries. He also has 41 catches for 262 yards. While there's a good chance Wilkins will find employment with another team in 2023-24, he has a way to go before being a relevant fantasy option.

Cleveland Browns running back Jordan Wilkins is getting extra reps in practice as Jerome Ford (hamstring) continues to sit out. The 29-year-old signed with the Browns just a couple of weeks ago to provide depth. The ex-Colt has rushed for over 300 yards in three separate seasons in his career. The veteran is competing with Demetric Felton Jr., John Kelly Jr., and Hassan Hall to be the third back on the depth chart. He'll get one more shot to prove he's worthy of a roster spot on Saturday in the Browns' preseason finale. Even if he does make the cut, he's unlikely to be fantasy-relevant in 2023.
