The Cleveland Browns go into Week 2 with the same secondary injuries that led them to defeat against the Ravens in Week 1. Now, 3/5 of the their offensive line is nursing some type of injury. J.C. Tretter played Week 1 but was listed as questionable with knee issue. Both Jedrick Willis Jr. (shin) and Jack Conklin (ankle/finger) are listed on the Week 2 injury report and Chris Hubbard is already nursing an ankle injury that caused him to Week 1. Baker Mayfield's bookends are now effected by injury along with his center which should cause issues on Thursday. Both Greedy Williams and Kevin Johnson are not practicing this week after missing Week 1. Williams is nursing a hamstring while Johnson is not practicing after lacerating his liver. There is worry that these injuries will not improve coupled with the backups not fully up to speed given the short week, leaves the Bengals with a big advantage on Thursday. With weapons like a healthy A.J. Green and John Ross who could capitalize on the Browns injured secondary combined with the OL issues, Bengals could be the play here.
