Update - Jerome Ford has been ruled out of Week 6 against the Eagles.
Brown RB Jerome Ford, who has been filling in for Nick Chubb since Chubb’s 2023 season-ending knee injury, suffered a hamstring injury early in the first quarter.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Ford is questionable to return.
Ford has recorded 48 carries for 250 rushing yards and one touchdown this season. However, his day was cut short after only managing two carries for 14 yards.
With Ford potentially sidelined for the day, the Browns will likely rely on D’Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong Jr. to carry the load in the backfield moving forward.
The Browns’ offense, already struggling, now faces even more challenges as they seek to bounce back from their dismal start at 1-4 heading into Week 6.
The Browns have opened the 21-day practice window for Chubb as they await his return from the physically unable to perform list, so he will return in the coming weeks however we expect him to be limited in his performance when he returns.
Stay tuned for updates on Jerome Ford and the Browns Running Backs.
