Odell Beckham Jr. not listed on Browns' final injury report, expected to play vs. Bears

Odell Beckham is back. The Browns 'celebrity receiver did not show up on the group's Friday injury report, indicating he's expected to suit up as well as play for the first time in 2021 when Cleveland hosts the Bears. Beckham hasn't seen the area given that he experienced a season-ending ACL injury in Week 7 last year.

Without Beckham, the Browns won 7 of their last 11 competitions last season, capping a surprising go to the playoffs with a dismayed sway Pittsburgh in their wild-card meeting. Cleveland could have made use of Beckham on many celebrations, specifically in the Browns' close loss to the Chiefs in the Divisional Round, however built onward with a group including Jarvis Landry, Rashard Higgins, Donovan Peoples-Jones as well as KhaDarel Hodge.

Landry is now the one on injured book complying with an MCL injury suffered in the Browns' Week 2 win over the Texans. He will not be dressed to welcome his best friend back to the field, however he'll hope to rejoin him following his three-week stay on IR.

Beckham was off to a strong start before his knee injury in 2020, catching 23 passes for 319 backyards and three touchdowns. His three-touchdown explosion (2 obtaining, one hurrying) in Dallas helped the Browns disturbed the Cowboys in a shootout and stood as his finest efficiency as a Brown, signifying hope he would certainly have the ability to discover his superstar kind in 2020. The knee injury ended that optimism, as Beckham headed toward a long, largely secluded rehabilitation process that saw him stay clear of talking with press reporters until this week.

With Beckham back in the layer, Cleveland will certainly intend to improve its overall passing away production. Baker Mayfield leads the league in completion percent, however has thrown just one goal pass in 2 games: a 33-yard display to novice Demetric Felton. The Browns are incredibly solid at running back, implying they don't need to count on Mayfield to toss for 300-plus lawns per ready them to have a chance to win. But getting Beckham entailed certainly wouldn't hurt their offensive rhythm, with which they had a hard time in the initial fifty percent Sunday.

Beckham's timing could not be much better following Landry's injury. We'll see if it aids Cleveland boost to 2-1 Sunday against the Bears.

In other Browns injury news, take on Chris Hubbard as well as linebacker Sione Takitaki were eliminated, while starting offensive electrician JC Tretter and also Jedrick Wills are suspicious to play.
