Hicks is currently being screened for a concussion. He is the second Browns defender to get injured in this one; CB Denzel Ward (shoulder) was ruled out at the beginning of the second half.

Hicks was active for Week 4 despite entering the game with rib and elbow injuries. He only managed to play a few snaps before exiting. The tricep issue was added to his injury report this week. Cleveland could be without Hicks for a few weeks as he nurses a myriad of injuries.

Hicks attempted to play through the rib and elbow injuries last week but only made it five snaps. The tricep issue is a new addition to his status on the injury report. He looks unlikely to suit up in Week 5. Myles Garrett (Achilles) did not practice on Wednesday. He didn’t practice last Wednesday either but was cleared from the injury report entirely by Friday. Garrett is likely on a strict workload management routine and should be expected to play this week, despite the DNP.

Hicks was the only Browns player with a questionable tag heading into Sunday. Inactive for the Browns are QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, RB Pierre Strong Jr., CB Kahlef Hailassie, OT Jedrick Wills Jr., OT Jack Conklin, WR Jamari Thrash and TE David Njoku.
