Cleveland Browns release long list of inactive players for game against Vikings

0

The Cleveland Browns face the Minnesota Vikings this afternoon in their second preseason game of the year.

Fans who were hoping to see the team's key players play will be disappointed.

Shortly before the start of the game, the Browns released a very long list of inactive players.

Here are the players who will not play in today's game, in no particular order:

Greg Newsome II, Juan Thornhill, Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy, Deshaun Watson, Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, Dustin Hopkins, Elijah Moore, Grant Delpit, Rodney McLeod, David Bell, Cedric Tillman, Denzel Ward, Nyheim Hines, Martin Emerson Jr., Nick Chubb, Ronnie Hickman, Jerome Ford, D'Anthony Bell, Nathaniel Watson, Tony Fields II, Charley Hughlett, Ogbo Okoronkwo, Ethan Pocic, Luke Wypler, Jordan Hicks, Michael Dunn, Jedrick Wills Jr., Quinton Jefferson, Joel Bitonio, Wyatt Teller, Jack Conklin, Dawand Jones, David Njoku, Maurice Hurst II, Alex Wright, Dalvin Tomlinson, Myles Garrett, Za'Darius Smith.

This is obviously a long list of players.

Still, there are some key players to keep an eye on today. A major topic will be the battle for the third quarterback job. Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Tyler Huntley are still competing for that role.

A few other players to keep an eye on are wide receiver Jamari Thrash and defensive back Myles Harden. Both players are fighting for potential playing time in their rookie seasons.

With just two preseason games remaining before the start of the regular season, the battle for roster spots is on. Cleveland will have several players on the field today fighting for those spots.
