Jarvis Landry has played every game in his seven-year career but will miss a game for the first time on Sunday.
On Saturday night, ESPN’s Adam Schefter revealed that nearly the entire Browns wide receiver group will be forced to sit out Sunday’s game due to being deemed “high-risk close contacts.”
A group of Browns wide receivers have been deemed High-Risk-Close-Contacts and Cleveland is awaiting word as to how many will not be able to travel to New York for Sunday’s game vs. Jets, sources tell @mortreport and me. Game is on but Browns likely without WRs and possibly a TE.
