Judkins ahead in rehab; RB22 despite injuries, RB14 before shoulder injury.

Judkins suffered a fractured fibula and dislocated ankle in Week 16 but appears to be ahead of Cam Skattebo in his rehab and is fighting to get healthy for Week 1. Though the Browns are often an afterthought for fantasy, the arrival of head coach Todd Monken should make this unit more interesting in 2026 and a healthy Judkins could be a driving force. The 22-year-old finished as the RB22 in fantasy points per game (11.2 fppg) despite dealing with injuries and playing in a subpar Cleveland offense that lacked quality quarterback play most of the year. However, in the five games before he suffered his first injury (shoulder), the second-rounder was the RB14 (14.6 fppg). Much like Skattebo, Judkins is a second-year breakout candidate and possible star who is being undervalued solely due to his injury.
