Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Jace Sternberger

Friday, December 19, 1:15 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) has officially been ruled out for the second straight game and will not dress for the Week 16 contest this Sunday against the visiting Buffalo Bills, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Njoku has not practiced the last two weeks after suffering a knee injury on a touchdown grab in Week 14. It's unclear if he'll be able to play in the final two weeks of the 2025 regular season. The 29-year-old has taken a clear back seat to rookie Harold Fannin Jr. this year, catching just 33 passes on 48 targets for 293 yards and four touchdowns. With Njoku out in last week's blowout loss to the Chicago Bears, Fannin had seven catches on a team-high 14 targets for 48 yards. Fannin will have more TE1 upside for a second straight week this Sunday against Buffalo with Njoku out again.

The Buffalo Bills waived tight end Jace Sternberger on Sunday. The Packers drafted the 27-year-old in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. However, he appeared in only 18 games in Green Bay, catching 12 balls for 114 yards and a touchdown. Since then, he made brief stops in Seattle, Washington, and Pittsburgh before Buffalo signed him at the start of training camp. But nobody expected Sternberger to make the Week 1 roster, especially with Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid on the depth chart.
