Cleveland Browns tight end Jordan Cameron missed his third day of practice on Friday and is listed as "questionable" for the team's matchup versus the New Orleans Saints.
Jordan Cameron injury update: fantasy owners need back-up plan in place for injured TE
The Cleveland Browns will likely be without their greatest receiving weapon this week versus the New Orleans Saints. We break down the fantasy implications.

Cameron had an MRI that revealed a sprained AC joint, and though it is not considered a chronic injury, it’s likely enough to keep him sidelined for Week 2. Though the Browns have not officially ruled him out, it never bodes well for a player’s chances to take the field when he does not practice for the entire week of preparation.
Fantasy Spin: It’s unfortunate for Cameron’s fantasy owners, since this is a week that could yield a high-scoring affair as the Browns attempt to keep up with the high-octane Saints offense. As a true game-time decision, back-up plans need to be in place for Cameron, but owners can at least benefit from the Browns’ 1 p.m. start. Expect Andrew Hawkins to get a boost in the passing game should Cameron officially be ruled out.
