3 years agoCleveland Browns quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum did not test out of the NFL's COVID-19 protocols on Monday, according to league sources, meaning it will be Nick Mullens under center against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15. The team had been holding out hope that they would get a negative test back from Mayfield in time, but instead Mullens will make his first NFL appearance since Week 14 of the 2020 season. There's a good chance that Mayfield will be back under center for Cleveland's Christmas Day game against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. Mullens under center downgrades Cleveland's passing offense, especially considering he was just signed to the team's active roster from the practice squad earlier in the week. Running back Nick Chubb is the only safe fantasy option on the Browns this week.--Matt T - RotoBaller
