Who Should I Start? Pierre Strong Jr. or Jordan Mims

Wednesday, January 1, 3:32 PM

Cleveland Browns running back Pierre Strong Jr. (concussion) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Wednesday. Strong suffered a concussion in the Week 17 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday and is now in the league's concussion protocol. With two straight DNPs this week and a meaningless Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens on a short week on Saturday, it's looking unlikely that the 26-year-old will suit up for the last game of the season. In addition to Strong, Jerome Ford (ankle) has yet to practice this week and could also be out this weekend. If both Ford and Strong are unavailable for the Browns, D'Onta Foreman would most likely see the lion's share of work in the backfield in a bad Browns offense, with John Kelly in line for backup duties for Cleveland.

The Tennessee Titans agreed on an undisclosed two-year deal with free-agent running back Jordan Mims on Thursday, a source told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The former Fresno State standout spent his first two seasons in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints and had 20 rushing attempts last season for 70 rushing yards while also catching 12 of 18 targets for 71 yards through the air in 11 games (zero starts). The 26-year-old went undrafted out of Fresno State before latching on with the Saints in 2023. Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears are the unquestioned top two backs for the Titans going into the 2025 campaign, so Mims will be competing for a depth role in training camp this summer with Julius Chestnut, rookie Kalel Mullings and Tyrion Davis-Price.
