Mac Jones not expected to play vs. Browns

As the Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots get set for the battle for .500, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports starting quarterback Mac Jones is unlikely to suit up. This means the Browns will face rookie backup quarterback Bailey Zappe today.

The Patriots have a slew of questionable players as well, including starting wide receiver Jacoby Meyers and running back Damien Harris. Neither of them has been ruled out, and Meyers is even expected to play according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Regardless of who is under center for the Patriots, the Browns have been abysmal at stopping the run this season. Focusing on Harris (if healthy) and second-year back Rhamondre Stevenson will be of the highest priority for this Cleveland defense.
