Isaiah Crowell

Browns place Joel Bitonio (mid-foot sprain) on injured reserve

Cleveland Browns left guard Joel Bitonio was placed on injured reserve with a mid-foot sprain.

What It Means:

Bitonio played through the injury after suffering it last week, but won't be able to do that moving forward. He's a key cog in Cleveland's running game, so it's a moderate blow to Isaiah Crowell's fantasy value. The Browns added fullback Dan Vitale in a corresponding move.

Entering Week 6, the Browns rank 26th in the league in Adjusted Rushing Net Expected Points per play. They draw the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
