David Njoku Returns To Practice On Saturday
3 months ago
Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (undisclosed) was cleared to practice at training camp for the first time on Saturday. The Browns held Njoku out of the first two days of camp as a precaution due to a minor undisclosed injury. Njoku will be fully ready for the start of the 2024 regular season after coming on strong in the second half of last year, ironically after quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) had season-ending surgery. The 28-year-old former 29th overall pick in 2017 out of Miami was a first-time Pro Bowler and set career-highs in catches (81), targets (123), receiving yards (882) and touchdowns (six) in 16 regular-season starts. The big-bodied and burly tight end excels in yards after the catch and should remain one of the most-targeted pass-catchers in Cleveland's offense. Njoku is firmly on the TE1 radar after his strong finish in 2023.
