Browns announce five inactives in Week 17 bout vs. Dolphins

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (85) stares down Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt (29) as he runs to the sideline during the first half of an NFL football game at Huntington Bank Field, Sunday, Oct. 20, 2024, in Cleveland, Ohio.

As the Cleveland Browns get set to take on the Miami Dolphins, they have announced the five players who will not dress in this Week 17 game.

Set to kickoff at 4:05 PM EST, the Browns will be without tight end David Njoku. This move was announced on Friday as Njoku has been dealing with a knee injury. He was one of three players who was announced as out in this game with an injury.

With one game left in the season against the Baltimore Ravens, it is still to be seen whether or not Njoku will suit up in the season finale. Njoku is just one of the handful of players who will not dress, however.

Here are all five players the Browns have announced as inactive as they host the Dolphins at Huntington Bank Field:
