QB Joe Flacco's improbable comeback with Cleveland has Browns in playoffs, eyeing bigger wins
The Joe Flacco comeback story is either getting more surreal or special by the gameDECEMBER 29, 2023•ASSOCIATED PRESS
Cedric Tillman - Snap leader at WRTillman caught one of four targets for eight yards in Thursday's 37-20 win over the Jets in Week 17.
ImpactTillman entered the game expected to take on a larger role with Amari Cooper (heel) inactive, and he takes on increased interest after Elijah Moore entered the NFL's concussion protocol. The rookie led the Browns wideouts with 57 snaps (95 percent) and three of his four targets were in the red zone. Cleveland has extra preparation and healing time before the season finale against the Bengals, and either or both Cooper and Moore could be available. With the Browns having qualified for the postseason, that may enter the decision-making process regarding the availability of the injured receivers Week 18.

Pierre Strong Jr. - Plays support role in winStrong had four carries for 29 yards and lost a fumble in Thursday's 37-20 win over the Jets in Week 17.
ImpactStrong was on the field for 14 offensive snaps, getting work to spell both Jerome Ford and Kareem Hunt in what became blowout in the first half. The short week added some intrigue, as Hunt dealt with a groin injury early in the practice week, but Strong was not needed for anything more than the role he's played the few weeks: a handful of offensive snaps/carries and a healthy dose of special teams duty.
