  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Just misses century mark in New Orleans

    Boston caught six of seven targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 23-22 overtime loss to the Saints.

    The 98 yards led the Browns on the afternoon, and Boston showed some immediate chemistry with Shedeur Sanders, connecting with the QB on a 60-yard strike in the third quarter that nearly resulted in a touchdown. The rookie receiver was also the target on a two-point conversion attempt that would have won the game in OT, but the pass got broken up. Boston also set a new career high in receiving yards with the performance, and if Sanders takes over for Deshaun Watson (concussion) under center on a permanent basis, it could lead to plenty more big plays. Through his first nine NFL games. Boston's delivered a 32-507-3 line on 61 targets.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Cleared for Sunday

    Boston (calf) was a full participant in Friday's practice and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    With Boston upgrading from limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday to full participation Friday, he should be fine for his usual role as a near-every-down player in a young Cleveland offense. It'll be his first chance to work with Shedeur Sanders extensively outside of a practice environment, as the Browns reportedly won't start Deshaun Watson (head) even if he clears concussion protocol before the game.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Remains limited Thursday

    Boston (calf) remained limited in Thursday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Boston dealt with a foot issue a couple weeks ago, but the calf injury is new this week. The rookie wideout has been scuffling after a hot start to the season. Perhaps the likely insertion of Shedeur Sanders this Sunday against the Saints can help Boston regain his big-play ability. Boston is a low-floor, upside WR4 for fantasy.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Limited by calf injury Wednesday

    Boston was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a calf injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Boston made appearances on the injury report in Weeks 6 and 7 due to a foot issue, but he's tending to a new health concern coming out of this past Sunday's 27-6 loss to the Steelers. The rookie wideout will have two more chances this week to upgrade to full practice, and if he does, he should head into Sunday's game in New Orleans without an injury designation.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Six snags in loss

    Boston caught six of 11 targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 27-6 loss to the Steelers.

    Boston entered Week 8 having caught just four of 13 targets for 42 yards over the previous two games, so Sunday's output was a step in the right direction. The wide receiver's 11 targets were a new career high, and he ranked second behind tight end Harold Fannin (12) in the category versus Pittsburgh. Boston has now reeled in 26 of 53 targets for 409 yards and three touchdowns over the first eight games of the 2026 campaign.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Quiet again in Week 7 win

    Boston caught just three of eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Titans.

    The wide receiver was the favorite for the Offensive Rookie of the Year after the first five weeks of the season, but he's now posted back-to-back subpar games against the Ravens and Titans. During those two contests, Boston has four catches for 42 yards on 13 targets. He's been extremely inefficient with his looks and isn't getting loose for big plays over the top of the defense. He'll try to get back on track next Sunday in Pittsburgh.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Cleared to face Titans

    Boston (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Boston played through the same injury last week and took 92 percent of Cleveland's snaps on offense in a 13-10 win over the Ravens. He caught just one of five targets for 15 yards, showing the downside of being a deep threat in an offense with poor QB play.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Limited again Thursday

    Boston (foot) remained limited at Thursday's practice.

    Boston has been bothered by a foot injury since the start of Cleveland's Week 6 preparations against the Ravens. He suited up for that game after three limited practices but was held to one catch, and the rookie second-round pick has opened Week 7 prep with a pair of limited practices. Boston will look to increase his practice participation Friday and avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

  • Browns' Denzel Boston: Limited by foot issue

    Boston (foot) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Though he didn't end up practicing fully at any point in Week 6 while managing the same foot injury, Boston still avoided a designation for this past Sunday's 13-10 win over the Ravens and ended up logging more than 90 percent of the offensive snaps. As long as he maintains or increases his current level of practice activity throughout the week, Boston should be ready to handle his usual playing time this coming Sunday versus the Titans.
