Cleveland Browns tight end Jordan Cameron will be held out of Saturday's preseason opener against the Detroit Lions. Cameron is dealing with an injury on the AC joint in his shoulder, but it's not believed to be a serious issue. Head coach Mike Pettine has stated that Cameron would likely suit up if it were a regular season game.
Jordan Cameron ruled out of Saturday’s game, not a fantasy concern

Cameron enjoyed a breakout year in his third NFL season, recording 80 catches for 917 yards and seven touchdowns.
Fantasy impact: Not much to worry about here, unless Cameron’s injury happens to linger over the next few weeks. He doesn’t have offensive coordinator Norv Turner around anymore, but Josh Gordon’s pending suspension makes Cameron the only reliable weapon in Cleveland’s offense.
Whether Brian Hoyer or Johnny Manziel is throwing the ball, Cameron should continue putting up big numbers. One of the top tight ends at a thin fantasy position, Cameron will not last long in drafts. His current ADP is late in the fifth round.
