DETROIT — The Cleveland Browns are nearing kickoff for their game against the Buffalo Bills inside Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, and they'll do so with their star tight end back on the field.
David Njoku has been sidelined for the past three weeks with a high ankle sprain sustained in the game against the Baltimore Ravens but returned to practice earlier this week. Njoku worked through two straight days of practice and was listed as questionable for the game on Friday.
Just before kickoff, Njoku was cleared to play, marking his return to game action and a welcome sight for the offense who struggled against the Dolphins, particularly in the blocking for the run game that Njoku has become a major part of.
Here are the Browns' inactives for Sunday's game against the Bills:
