Jerome Ford Not Expected to Play in Browns First Preseason Game

Friday, August 8, 6:36 PM

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford is among the players who are not expected to play for the team in its first preseason game against the Carolina Panthers on Friday night. Many key offensive contributors for Cleveland are not expected to play, including wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, tight end David Njoku, and quarterback Joe Flacco. Notably, Browns rookie running back Dylan Sampson is expected to suit up. With fellow rookie Quinshon Judkins still unsigned due to a July arrest, Sampson and Ford are competing for backfield snaps in Cleveland. Ford is entering his fourth season with the Browns, so he has less to prove in preseason action than Sampson.

Jaylen Wright Productive in Preseason Opener

Monday, August 11, 7:48 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright carried the ball nine times for 16 yards and a touchdown while not getting targeted in the passing game in a 24-24 tie with the Chicago Bears in preseason action on Sunday. Wright mixed in with the first team on the Dolphins' first drive as he rotated with De'Von Achane early in the game. He appears ticketed for the short-yardage and goal-line work for Miami as he saw three straight carries from inside the five-yard line on the team's first drive of the game and later punched in a seven-yard score in the second quarter. Wright is battling to be the team's RB2 behind Achane after a quiet rookie season in 2024, a role that would give him plenty of fantasy value as a handcuff later in drafts. He will get his next chance to make an impression on Saturday in the Dolphins' second preseason game against the Detroit Lions.
