Jerome Ford's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) did not practice again on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Ford was unable to suit up last week due to this hamstring injury. Fantasy managers should monitor his status during Friday's practice. However, he will likely carry an injury designation into the weekend given that he has not been able to participate in any team practices this week. If Ford misses his second-straight game on Sunday, fantasy managers should expect Nick Chubb to lead the backfield with Pierre Strong and D'Onta Foreman serving as change of pace options.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) is not practicing on Wednesday to begin Week 8 preparation. The third-year back out of Cincinnati did not play in Week 7 due to a hamstring injury and could be at risk of missing the Week 8 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Luckily for Cleveland, star running back Nick Chubb returned last week for his first game since Week 2 of the 2023 campaign. However, Chubb could only rack up 25 yards on 13 touches last Sunday, though he did score a touchdown. Quarterback Deshaun Watson (Achilles) is out for the season, and Jameis Winston might provide a slight upgrade for the Cleveland offense. However, with Amari Cooper out of town, the unit as a whole is likely to remain a bottom-10 offensive attack in the NFL.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. This doesn't come as much of a shock after head coach Kevin Stefanski recently said Ford is considered week-to-week. Ford hasn't practiced all week, so fantasy managers will need to be hopeful for a Week 8 return. However, it's worth noting that fellow back Nick Chubb (knee) is likely to make his season debut this weekend. He figures to take over the bulk of the carries once he's back to full speed. Nyheim Hines (knee) is unlikely to play, so Chubb could be forced into a big role during his first game back.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) remained sidelined during Thursday's practice, according to Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram. This is not a good sign for Ford's availability this weekend. Fantasy managers should monitor his status during Friday's injury report, as he will need to at least return to practice in some capacity to have an opportunity to suit up on Sunday. The 25-year-old left last weekend's game early with a hamstring injury. Running back Nick Chubb (knee) is set to return on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals and could see a larger-than-expected workload if Ford is unable to play.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) is not practicing on Wednesday to begin Week 7 preparation. The third-year back out of Cincinnati left the Week 6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with a hamstring injury, so he could be at real risk of missing Week 7. Meanwhile, Nick Chubb (knee), who is coming off a major knee injury from Week 2 of last season, could make his 2024 debut on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Cleveland backfield could be tricky to analyze this week, as Ford's status is in doubt, and Chubb could be on a pitch count if he plays. Backups D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong Jr. are likely to be involved in the rotation if Ford is inactive. The Bengals are a neutral matchup for running backs and Cleveland arguably has the worst offense in the NFL, so upside might be hard to come by for any Browns' RB this week.
