Harold Fannin Limited by Hamstring; Browns TE Shows Promise Despite Depth Chart

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin was a limited participant in practice on Thursday due to a hamstring injury. Fannin, who signed a four-year contract in May 2025, has shown potential as a pass-catcher, breaking FBS records for tight ends in receiving yards and catches during his college career. Despite being behind David Njoku on the depth chart, his ability to work from the slot suggests he could share the field and contribute. Advanced statistics show Fannin averaging 39.3 air yards per game and accounting for 17.4% of the team's total air yards. He has also been active in recent games, catching four passes for 44 yards in Week 10. Fannin's proficiency in the passing game is expected to translate to the NFL level.
