Overview
- Judkins spent Wednesday at the NFL’s New York office to discuss the July domestic-battery allegation, which prosecutors declined to charge in August as the league’s personal conduct review continues.
- The Browns plan for Judkins to practice Thursday and Friday before deciding on his availability for Sunday’s game at Baltimore, and head coach Kevin Stefanski has not committed to playing him.
- Cleveland received a standard short-term roster exemption allowing Judkins to practice without counting toward the 53-man roster for up to two games.
- The rookie signed a fully guaranteed four-year contract worth about $11 million on Sept. 6 after missing training camp and the preseason.
- To make room in the backfield rotation as he returns to practice, the Browns released running back Trayveon Williams from the practice squad after Jerome Ford and Dylan Sampson carried the load in Week 1.
