The Cleveland Browns have faced ongoing challenges regarding their backfield depth and player availability. In late September, running back Quinshon Judkins was listed on a participation report for a “not injury related – personal” matter, which limited his practice involvement during a period when the team was already managing the absence of Dylan Sampson.

By mid-October, the situation shifted from personal matters to physical injury. Following a 17-12 loss to the New York Jets, Judkins was seen leaving the locker room in a walking boot. Coach Todd Monken described the player as “day-to-day with an ankle tweak.” This injury further strained a backfield already missing Sampson and Raheim Sanders.
