Browns' Michael Hall: Suspension over, roster exemption
Hall's suspension was lifted Monday, but the Browns were granted a one-game roster exemption, giving the team a deadline of Monday, Oct. 14 to reinstate him to the active roster or otherwise release him, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Hall has opened the 2024 season with a five-game suspension and now that the Browns have completed those five contests, he can return to the practice field. The team will have the ability to evaluate him at practice during the week and add him to the active roster before Sunday's matchup with the Eagles. The Browns took Hall in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft after a successful collegiate career at Ohio State and he'll now finally be able to make his professional debut.

Browns' Denzel Ward: Knocked out of Week 5 loss
Ward was eventually ruled out of Week 5's loss to the Commanders after sustaining a hamstring injury during the third quarter, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.
Washington was up by four scores at the time of the injury, and it made little sense to put Ward back in. Since the end of training camp, Ward has dealt with a concussion and shoulder injury in addition to this most recent issue. Through five contests, he has eight tackles and nine passes defensed.

Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Back on track in loss
Hopkins converted both of his field-goal attempts and a lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders in Week 5.
Hopkins, who had misses in each of the last two games, nailed all five his kicks. The field goals were from 51 and 31 yards. Hopkins averaged 8.2 points per game in 2023, but the Browns' sputtering offense in 2024 has impacted his value. The kicker is averaging just 5.4 points per game through five weeks.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Grabs first TD since 2022
Akins caught three of three targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders in Week 5.
Akins caught a 10-yard, garbage-time touchdown to wrap up Cleveland's scoring, his first touchdown catch since 2022 when he was with the Texans. It was his first red-zone look of the season. As anticipated, Akins' playing time initially took a hit (20 snaps) with the return of David Njoku, but Njoku left the game with a knee injury and is expected to undergo an MRI, per Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com. Akins could be headed for a bigger role again in Week 6 against the Eagles.

Browns' Elijah Moore: Four targets in loss
Moore caught three of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to Washington in Week 5.
Moore continued to be a distant third at wide receiver behind Amari Cooper and Jerry Jeudy, This was the fourth time in five games that Moore had 17 receiving yards or fewer. The one bright note is that he got his first red-zone target of the season. He has just 92 yards through five weeks, eight targets over the last three games, and a meager 4.5 aDOT.

Browns' Pierre Strong: Light duty in return
Strong had one carry for two yards, failed to catch his lone target and returned five kickoffs for 124 yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders in Week 5.
Strong returned to action after missing two games due to a hamstring injury. His snap counts -- five on offense and eight on special teams -- were the lowest in the three games in which he's been active. With Nick Chubb (knee) and Nyheim Hines (knee) back practicing -- both were inactive Sunday -- Strong could see his opportunities on offense cut back in Week 6 against the Eagles.

Browns' Jameis Winston: Leads final drive
Winston completed his only pass attempt for 16 yards and played five snaps in Sunday's 34-13 loss to Washington in Week 5.
Winston was given mop-up duty in the Browns' fourth loss in five games, taking the helm for the club's final possession. The offense was held under 20 points for a fifth time, and the struggles start at quarterback with Deshaun Watson. Calls for a change under center will grow louder this week as Cleveland prepares for a Week 6 tilt against Philadelphia, but head coach Kevin Stefanski was adamant about sticking with Watson following the game, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic.

Browns' Ethan Pocic: Nursing knee injury
Pocic injured his knee during Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Pocic was helped off the field early in the fourth quarter after sustaining a knee injury. He'll undergo imaging, which will help determine the severity of the injury. If Pocic is unable to suit up against the Eagles in Week 6, Nick Harris would be the next man up at center.

Browns' David Njoku: Hurts knee in Week 5 loss
Njoku suffered a knee injury during Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Njoku finished the game with only one catch for 14 yards on three targets, while backup Jordan Akins caught a touchdown late in the lopsided loss. Njoku had missed Cleveland's previous three games due to a high-ankle sprain. It remains to be seen if Njoku's new injury will impact his availability for Week 6 against the Eagles.

Browns' Amari Cooper: Leading receiver in loss
Cooper caught four of 10 targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders.
While he saw double-digit targets for the second time in five games and led the Browns in receiving yards, Cooper still failed to do very much with the volume as Deshaun Watson struggled to get the ball downfield with any authority once again. Aside from his two-TD performance against the Giants in Week 3, Cooper has had a rough start to the campaign, and it might take a switch under center to Jameis Winston -- or a trade to another team -- to make the veteran wideout a consistent fantasy asset again. Cooper will try to break out in Week 6 against a well-rested Eagles secondary that will be coming out of its bye.

Browns' D'Onta Foreman: Productive in timeshare
Foreman carried the ball nine times for 44 yards and caught his only target for 16 yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders.
The veteran back saw 10 touches to Jerome Ford's 12, and Foreman's 60 scrimmage yards led the Cleveland backfield. It's was Foreman's best performance of the season, but his role could shrink quickly again if Nick Chubb (knee) is cleared to make his 2024 debut in Week 6. If not, Foreman could work in a timeshare with Ford again versus a well-rested Eagles defense that will be coming out of its bye.
