Quinshon Judkins listed as questionable for Week 6; Browns provide injury updates ahead of Ravens game
The Cleveland Browns listed running back Quinshon Judkins as questionable for their Week 6 game against the Baltimore Ravens, the team announced Friday. Defensive end Derek Barnett, defensive tackle Mason Graham and linebacker Carson Schwesinger were also designated questionable. Five players, Kalia Davis, Dillon Gabriel, Mike Hall Jr., Teven Jenkins and Dylan Sampson, were listed as out.
Barnett missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday with an ankle issue before returning as a limited participant on Friday. Graham, who suffered an MCL sprain and an ankle sprain in Week 4 and sat out Week 5, did not practice Wednesday or Thursday but was a limited participant Friday. Judkins initially tweaked his ankle in the Week 5 game against the New York Jets and did not practice Wednesday or Thursday before a limited practice on Friday. Schwesinger followed the same Wednesday-Thursday absence and limited-Friday pattern with an ankle injury.
The Browns listed defensive tackle Kalia Davis out with a quad injury, and he did not practice during the week as he works through his practice window. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel, listed as out with a back injury, was a full participant in practice throughout the week as he progresses toward a potential return. Defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. remained out after not practicing all week with an ankle injury. Guard Teven Jenkins will miss his sixth consecutive game while sidelined by a back injury, and running back Dylan Sampson, on injured reserve with a knee issue, did not practice Wednesday and was a limited participant Thursday and Friday as he advances through his return window.
Coach Todd Monken said Mason Graham and Carson Schwesinger are “wired the right way” and that if they can play, they will. He added that their willingness to play hurt and to chase the ball reflects how much the team means to them. The Browns will monitor final practice designations and game-day activations as they finalize their roster for Week 6.
NFL Sports Blog Take
Judkins, Graham, Barnett and Schwesinger returning to limited participation on Friday improves the Browns’ chances of having key contributors available against the Ravens, but each remains officially questionable. The continued absence of Teven Jenkins and Mike Hall Jr. keeps pressure on Cleveland’s offensive-line depth and defensive interior, while Gabriel’s full-week participation indicates progress in his back injury despite his current out designation. The Browns will need clarity on those limited participants in the final hours before kickoff to understand the immediate impact on both the offense and defense for Week 6.
