The Cleveland Browns will enter their Thursday Night Football matchup against the New York Jets likely without both their kicker and their punter. They may also, however, be without starters Amari Cooper and Juan Thornhill, as both players are listed as questionable for this primetime game.
Being without Cooper, off of his record-setting outing against the Houston Texans, would be a massive loss for a wide receiver room that has not had anyone truly step up without him. However, given that it is a short week, the Browns are likely giving Cooper the time he needs so that he can play against the Jets.
If Thornhill cannot go again, which would be his fourth missed game in a row, rookie Ronnie Hickman Jr., D’Anthony Bell, and 10-year veteran Duron Harmon will have to step up once again.
As the Browns look to clinch their first playoff berth in three years, here is everyone who appeared on Wednesday’s injury report on the eve of this matchup against the Jets.
P Corey Bojorquez: DNP (quad) DOUBTFUL
