The Browns will be without a number of wide receivers in addition to other players..
Jarvis Landry, Rashard Higgins and Donovan People-Jones have been deemed High-Risk-Close-Contacts, per @mortreport and me. Browns awaiting further instruction but all three now could be out Sunday vs. Jets. https://t.co/TyMsq3IPhV

These players, and more, are expected to be placed on Reserve/COVID list, which would make them ineligible to play Sunday vs. Jets. https://t.co/LQ8XxPESCI
