Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
McLaughlin played a key role in the Browns' Week 6 win over the Ravens, when he had nine carries for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching all four of his targets for 13 yards. However, his role on offense evaporated Sunday due to the returns of both Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson. McLaughlin figures to be limited to return duties moving forward unless one or both of Judkins or Sampson misses time.
Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
McLaughlin turned 13 touches (nine carries, four catches) into 55 yards in a Week 6 win against the Browns, but Cleveland was without Judkins, Sampson and Raheim Sanders (hip) for that contest. With Judkins and Sampson both on track to play Sunday, McLaughlin and Audric Estime will revert to depth roles on offense and will likely be limited to work on special teams.
Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
McLaughlin served as the lead back with Quinshon Judkins (ankle) declared inactive and both Raheim Sanders (hip) and Dylan Sampson (knee) on injured reserve. While his rushing opportunities were capped, McLaughlin was reasonably efficient with them while also recording a pristine catch rate on his four targets. The former Bronco is ideally suited for a change-of-pace role, but his speed has always afforded him some fantasy upside. McLaughlin could find himself in a similar role in a Week 7 road matchup against the Titans if Judkins remains sidelined and Sampson isn't activated from IR.
Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
With Quinshon Judkins (ankle) inactive and both Raheim Sanders (hip) and Dylan Sampson (knee) on injured reserve, McLaughlin is the next man up out of the backfield for Cleveland. Cleveland signed Audric Estime off the Minnesota practice squad earlier in the week to provide another option at running back, but McLaughlin projects to serve as the lead ballcarrier as well as the team's top option on passing downs. In four games with the Browns since being signed to the roster, McLaughlin has played just 27 total snaps on offense, carrying twice for 31 yards and a touchdown while going without a catch on two targets.
Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
McLaughlin was on the field for only one offensive snap Thursday. He made that play count, with the fourth-year pro taking advantage of strong run blocking to reach the end zone for the fourth touchdown of his NFL career. That score may have earned McLaughlin some more reps moving forward, though he's still firmly behind both Quinshon Judkins and Raheim Sanders in the pecking order for backfield snaps. The Browns will hit the road for a Week 5 tilt against the Jets.
Jaleel McLaughlin — Active
McLaughlin saw just eight offensive snaps in Sunday's win. The running back was signed to the active roster from the practice squad last Tuesday after Dylan Sampson (knee) was placed on injured reserve. McLaughlin appears set to fill a depth role behind Quinshon Judkins and Raheim Sanders until Sampson is able to return.
