The Cleveland Browns only have two games left in this dreadfully long season sitting at 3-12 as they get set to take on the Miami Dolphins at Huntington Bank Field.
Njoku played through an injury last week against the Cincinnati Bengals, leading the way in receiving yards for the Browns. This came after missing the previous week against the Kansas City Chiefs. We will see if Njoku decides to suit up in the season finale against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 18.
With Geoff Swaim also on Injured Reserve, the Browns are left with just Jordan Akins and Blake Whiteheart at the tight end position as they host the Dolphins. Njoku, however, was not the only Browns player to receive a gameday designation as four in total got tagged.
Including Njoku, here are all four Browns who were given gameday designations in their Week 17 matchup against the Dolphins:
