Inactive List for Cleveland Browns vs. Minnesota Vikings
Today the Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings will face off in the first time slot. For Cleveland it was already known that Jarvis Landry and Jacob Phillips would miss this one. Both players are on the injured reserve. Landry could return in as early as two weeks possibly.
The Vikings will have first-round pick Christian Darrisaw active for the first time in his NFL career.
Both teams have released their inactive lists as you will see below.
Cleveland Browns:
CB Greg Newsome
OL Chris Hubbard
DE Ifeadi Odenigbo
OL Michael Dunn
DT Tommy Togiai
Greg Newsome has been an impact rookie thus far starting opposite of Denzel Ward. Newsome won the preseason battle with Greedy Williams and has been locked in at CB2. Newsome suffered a calf injury last week against the Chicago Bears that will keep him out for at least this week. Williams is getting the start and will have a tough task against the Vikings receiving core.
Second year man Jedrick Wills is active and that is a good thing due to the fact that Chris Hubbard will not be playing. Hubbard can move up and down the offensive line and has already stepped in at left tackle this season. With Hubbard out, next man up would be Blake Hance if it came down to it.
Browns offensive line will be fully-intact. Both J.C. Tretter and Jedrick Wills were questionable, but will start.
Minnesota Vikings:
QB Kellen Mond
WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette
CB Kris Boyd
G Wyatt Davis
LB Anthony Barr
DT James Lynch
DE Patrick Jones II
