Latest takes
“Even glancing back to his days at Ohio State, Judkins wasn't used much as a receiver, in favor of his more bruising style. I don't envision him catching more than 35 passes after he saw fewer than three targets per game in 2025, especially given the receiving threats the Browns possess.”
Evan Tarracciano· Jun 25“Judkins is a good player, but his draft day cost assumes a bigger workload than the data suggests he'll get, especially with Dylan Sampson as a better pass-catcher who will likely split carries in head coach Todd Monken's rotation.”
Tom Strachan· Jun 22“Judkins suffered a dislocated ankle and a fractured fibula in Week 16, two injuries that on their own would have been bad enough, but together they make things more worrisome. Players like Tony Pollard and Mark Andrews have struggled with efficiency in recent seasons after returning from similar injuries.”

“After he took the field during Week 2, Judkins was the clear-cut starter for Cleveland. He finished with nearly 1,000 all-purpose yards and seven rushing touchdowns, en route to an RB24 finish.”
Evan Tarracciano· Jun 21“Six months since suffering the injury, which required surgery, Judkins is on track in his recovery. "He's got his confidence back, his explosion," head coach Todd Monken said at mandatory minicamp this month. "And we'll just see once we get the pads on, but no, it looks good." A healthy Judkins will once again handle No. 1 running back duties in his second season.”
Connor Byrne· Jun 20“Quinshon Judkins is confident that he can get back to work after a tough leg injury ended what appeared to be a promising rookie season. "I know the work that I put in, so I'm prepared to just go out there and just put it on the field," Judkins said. "Just taking it day by day, and just really knowing the goal and where I want to be and getting back to making plays on the field and just feeling like myself."”
Tony Camino· Jun 19“Browns HC Todd Monken believes that RB Quinshon Judkins has regained his confidence after the serious leg injury, a fractured fibula and broken ankle, that brought an end to his successful rookie season. "It feels like he's got his confidence back, his explosion," Monken said in a press conference.”
Wyatt Grindley· Jun 16“Browns RB Quinshon Judkins enters the second year of his career after suffering a season-ending ankle injury and fractured fibula in week 16. Browns HC Todd Monken mentioned that Judkins looks confident in practice and is showing "explosion" again.”
Wyatt Grindley· Jun 13“The FantasyPros projections project more than 1,000 rushing yards, over 290 carries, and eight rushing touchdowns. The projections view Judkins as a foundational piece of Cleveland's offense.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jun 13“Quinshon Judkins (RB26) had a solid season but was far from consistent every week.”
Mike Fanelli· Jun 5“Quinshon Judkins was close to a full participant at the team's OTA sessions in May after a season-ending ankle injury in his rookie year. Cleveland HC Todd Monken thinks the second-year back looked good in his return to the field and praised his competitive nature, saying "Quinshon looked pretty good to me" and noting "no one works harder" with a competitive spirit and a rare trait of being "a bull — he refuses to go down."”
Wyatt Grindley· May 26“An easy schedule theoretically means the Browns shouldn't be trailing nearly as often. That's huge for Judkins, who was often phased out late in games as Cleveland was slinging it to try to play catch-up.”
Wolf Trelles-Heard· May 19“One of the biggest beneficiaries of the 2026 schedule is undoubtedly Quinshon Judkins. Cleveland has one of the softest slates in the league, and that should help the 2025 second-round pick as he looks to bounce back from injury after a pedestrian rookie campaign.”
Wolf Trelles-Heard· May 19“Browns RB Quinshon Judkins has been overlooked this offseason, and a leap forward from him could be huge for the team's offense this coming season.”
Wyatt Grindley· May 6“The Browns return 2025 draftees Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson; the team lost Jerome Ford in free agency (to Washington).”
Sam Robinson· Apr 27
“The swift decline in Josh Jacobs' market value has everything to do with the legal cloud hanging over him. He was arrested in late May on domestic violence allegations. While he was later released, prosecutors say the investigation is still ongoing.”
Wolf Trelles-Heard· Jun 24“With starting running back Josh Jacobs entering his age-28 stride, and also being the alleged perpetrator of domestic violence, Lloyd may finally get a shot to play meaningful snaps for the Packers.”
Edward DeLauter· Jun 23“In 2025, Jacobs appeared in 15 games for the Packers and recorded 234 rushing attempts for 929 yards (4.0 YPC) and 13 touchdowns, to go along with 36 receptions on 44 targets for 282 yards (7.8 YPC) and one touchdown.”

“Jacobs will be subject to the league's personal conduct policy and will likely face a suspension ahead of the 2026 season, pending the league's internal investigation.”
Jonathan Comeaux· May 26“Jacobs' attorneys announced that their client "vehemently denies" the allegations against him: "Josh vehemently denies the allegations, and this matter is in the early stages of investigation with important evidence that has not yet been made public."”
Jonathan Comeaux· May 26“Jacobs turned himself in to the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department in Wisconsin after the incident occurred on Saturday, May 23.”
Jonathan Comeaux· May 26“Josh Jacobs was arrested on Tuesday and charged with five counts of domestic abuse, including Battery–Domestic Abuse, Criminal Damage to Property–Domestic Abuse, Disorderly Conduct–Domestic Abuse, Strangulation and Suffocation, and Intimidation of a Victim.”
Jonathan Comeaux· May 26“Josh Jacobs might be the biggest value in early fantasy football drafts. Despite finishing as a productive fantasy back last season, Jacobs is currently being drafted outside the top 12 running backs in many formats. The case is simple: Green Bay trusts Jacobs near the goal line, he remains heavily involved as an early-down runner, and his receiving floor is underrated.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 10“Josh Jacobs at 299 [college touches] is one of only two other backs who had fewer than 400 college touches and were first-round picks.”
Rich Hribar· Apr 24“We were playing the Raiders and Josh Jacobs, I don't know what was wrong with him that day but he was running like a mad man.”
