Browns' Jerome Ford: Splits work with Foreman
Ford carried the ball nine times for 47 yards and caught all three of his targets for two yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Commanders.
While he led the Cleveland backfield in rushing yards, Ford's production on the ground was nearly identical to D'Onta Foreman, who gained 44 yards on nine carries. The entire Browns offense is struggling right now, and being in a timeshare won't help Ford break out -- the third-year RB hasn't seen more than 10 carries or scored a TD in four straight games, topping out at 64 rushing yards during that stretch. The team's backfield situation will change radically once Nick Chubb (knee) is cleared to return, but if Chubb remains sidelined in Week 6, Ford will try to make an impact against a well-rested Eagles defense that will be coming out of its bye.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Still lead back
Ford is expected to be the lead back Sunday against the Commanders, as both Nick Chubb (knee) and Nyheim Hines (knee) have been ruled out.
Ford should be the lead back for a fifth consecutive week, but the Browns have yet to establish a consistent ground attack. Cleveland ranks 28th in run blocking, per Pro Football Focus, and averages 94.8 rushing yards per game (26th). While Ford's per-carry average (5.2) is good, he has just 39 carries through four games.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Turns 17 touches into 85 yards
Ford (knee) ran the ball 10 times for 58 yards while adding seven receptions on as many targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Las Vegas.
Ford overcame a minor knee injury he picked up in Week 3 to lead Cleveland's backfield in a close loss to the Raiders. The veteran tailback finished with a new high of 85 combined yards through four starts while replacing Nick Chubb (knee) this year. Ford has yet to hit pay dirt since scoring his lone touchdown in Week 1, but he maintains a strong hold on the starting job while Chubb remains sidelined. The 25-year-old Ford should carry appeal as a flex option heading into a Week 5 matchup against the Commanders.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Set to play in Week 4
Ford (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Las Vegas, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Ford followed up Wednesday's DNP and Thursday's limited session with a full practice to wrap up Week 4 prep, thus paving the way for him to continue leading the Browns backfield. Through three games on the campaign, he's tallied 39 touches for 203 yards from scrimmage and one TD, while No. 2 RB D'Onta Foreman has a 17-56-0 line, respectively. Ford thus is the Browns' unquestioned top runner for as long as Nick Chubb (knee) remains on the reserve/PUP list, and the former will be taking on a Raiders defense Sunday that has given up a league-worst 5.6 YPC to opposing running backs this season.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Limited in return to practice
Ford (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
After logging no reps in Wednesday's session, Ford took a step forward in his recovery from the knee issue by increasing his practice activity. He'll likely still need to upgrade to full participation Friday to avoid taking a designation into Sunday's game in Las Vegas, but at this stage of the week, Ford appears to be trending toward suiting up.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Returns to practice Thursday
Ford (knee) is participating at practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Ford didn't practice Wednesday, but he's participating in at least a limited capacity Thursday. He played a season-high 83 percent of offensive snaps during Cleveland's loss to the Giants in Week 3, rushing 10 times for 37 yards and securing three of four targets for 33 yards, and it was at no point reported that Ford had to leave the game due to injury. That could be an indication that Ford's absence Wednesday was only due to a minor issue or for rest purposes. Assuming he's good to go, Ford will be in position to again lead the Browns' backfield versus the Raiders on Sunday.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Sits out practice with knee injury
Ford (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Ford is managing a knee injury to begin the week, but he still has two additional opportunities to practice Thursday and Friday before the Browns potentially give him a designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders. Pierre Strong (hamstring) also didn't practice Wednesday, while Nick Chubb (knee) is ineligible to come off the PUP list until Week 5 at the earliest. D'Onta Foreman and Gary Brightwell as the team's only healthy running backs at the moment.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Managing knee injury
Ford isn't expected to practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Ford played 53 of the Browns' 67 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's loss to the Giants, finishing with 10 carries for 37 yards and three catches for 33 yards in the contest. The Browns haven't revealed whether Ford's knee issue is anything that will affect his status for Week 4, but if he's unable to play Sunday against the Raiders, D'Onta Foreman would likely serve as Cleveland's lead option on the ground.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Posts 70 scrimmage yards Week 3
Ford rushed 10 times for 37 yards and caught three of four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 21-15 loss to the Giants.
Ford had four first-half carries for four yards while no teammate recorded more than one first-half rushing attempt as the Browns took a 21-7 deficit into the locker room. He finished the game with 10 carries compared to only two for D'Onta Foreman, and Ford posted the second-highest receiving yardage total on the team thanks to a 24-yard catch in the second half. Ford has posted between 64 and 70 scrimmage yards in each of Cleveland's first three games, and he should continue to lead the team's backfield in Week 4 against the Raiders since Nick Chubb (knee) is ineligible to come off the PUP list until Week 5 at the earliest.

Browns' Jerome Ford: Has favorable Week 3 matchup
Ford has a favorable Week 3 matchup against the Giants, who rank 28th in rushing yards allowed, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
The Browns have had a couple of disjointed offensive efforts to open the season, but the winless Giants present an opportunity to fix the issues. Ford, who had just 19 carries in the first two weeks, could get that many touches this week. The Browns consider the ground game central to their plans but rank just 21st in rushing yards (109.0 YPG) after two games.
