The Cleveland Browns will face the Miami Dolphins in Week 17. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR Jerry Jeudy.
Is Jerry Jeudy Playing in Week 17?
Jeudy was listed as limited on Wednesday’s estimated practice report with knee and shin injuries. It’s a downgrade from previous weeks when he was full, likely due to the shin issue. Jeudy should be fine to play this week.
We’ll continue to monitor the Browns’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Jerry Jeudy in Week 17?
Situations like this allow you to learn plenty about yourself as a fantasy manager.
Just how much risk are you willing to take on with all of the chips in the middle of the table?
My answer: not much. Jerry Jeudy had a nice run with Jameis Winston under center, but that’s kind of like saying that my exercise plan went great in the summer when it was nice out — it doesn’t matter right now.
This Dorian Thompson-Robinson-led offense doesn’t come preloaded with anything close to the upside of the Winston-led version, but it carries the same downside. Jeudy managed just 20 yards last weekend in Cincinnati against one of the most forgiving secondaries in the league. Why would we expect him to flip the script now?
The Dolphins can be had down the field, though that doesn’t project to be a major issue against this now ultra-conservative offense. What Miami can do is get off the field on third downs (third-best in the league this season), and with Cleveland going 3-of-12 in those spots last week, forgive me if I think that the road team has every chance to control this game.
The Browns are going to struggle against anyone, and if their offense can’t stay on the field, I’m told that’s bad for business.
Jeudy resides in the Marvin Harrison Jr./Aam Thielen tier this week of WR1s for his NFL team that I’d rather not roll with for my fantasy team if possible.
