Cleveland Browns' Jerome Ford Sidelined 1-2 Weeks Due to Ankle Injury

Ford filled in for injured Nick Chubb, leading the Browns with 344 rushing yards; his absence places pressure on Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong Jr. as Cleveland faces Seattle Seahawks next.

Jerome Ford, the Cleveland Browns' leading rusher, is expected to miss one to two weeks due to a high right ankle sprain he suffered during the Browns' recent victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
Ford had been the Browns' main running back since Nick Chubb's season-ending knee injury, and his absence puts additional pressure on Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong Jr.
So far this season, Ford has produced 344 rushing yards and four total touchdowns from six games, stepping up from his previous role as a kick returner during his rookie year.
In light of Ford's injury, the Browns may need to explore external options ahead of next week’s trade deadline and reshuffle their special teams rotations.
The Browns will face the Seattle Seahawks next, aiming for their third straight win despite their challenges in the running back position.
