In 2022 the Browns made the head scratching move of making Njoku one of the highest paid tight ends in the league. Clearly Cleveland was paying for what was to come, as Njoku had a career year in 2023 as a lynchpin player on offense. His 123 targets were 3rd among tight ends and his 81 receptions for 882 yards and 6 touchdowns were all career highs by a wide margin. Though he can struggle with inconsistent hands, his elite measurables make him a threat for all levels of the defense. While he was a league winner with Flacco down the stretch of last season, the addition of Jeudy, question marks around Watson and the change of the offense, leave Njoku closer to the bottom of the TE1 pile than the top.

 Gametime decision for TE David Njoku
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Dec 14, 10:44 pm
|  | Browns TE David Njoku, listed as questionable with a hamstring, will work out pre-game to see if he is able to play vs. the Chiefs, per source. “A gametime decision,” one source said. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Njoku missed practice all week so it's not looking great for on the better fantasy tight ends in the league. If he sits, Jordan Akins will take his place in the lineup. Akins best game this season was a 3-22-1 line in Week 5 against the Commanders. He'll be a low-end TE2 option if he gets the start.
| Cedric Tillman Out for Week 13, concussion
Missed practice all week
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Nov 30, 5:03 pm
| | Browns ruled out WR Cedric Tillman for Monday night’s game at Denver due to his concussion. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Tillman missed practice all week, indicating he wasn't close to being active against the Broncos. We may see more of Jamari Thrash in Tillman's absence but he won't be fantasy worthy. Most of the passing volume should flow throw Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and TE David Njoku.
| Jameis Winston expected to start in Week 8
Browns
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 23, 9:53 am
| | Jameis Winston will be named the #Browns starter today over Dorian Thompson-Robinson for the #Ravens game on Sunday, source says. (Mary Kay Cabot on X)
FFToday's Take: With Deshaun Watson suffering an Achilles injury last week and DTR injuring his finger, Winston will get the start against the Ravens in Week 8. This should be a boost to the Browns pass catchers but TE David Njoku will be the most reliable. Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and Cedric Tillman will be risky Flex options at wide receiver. On the plus side, the Ravens have given up the 3rd-most fantasy points to Quarterbacks.
