Ezra Cleveland
26-Year-Old
Won't play against Minnesota
Cleveland (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Cleveland will be sidelined for a second straight game due to an ankle injury he picked up in Week 8 against the Jaguars. He has yet to practice since the injury, and he'll look to get right for Week 11 against the Lions. Cooper Hodges injured his knee in Week 9 against the Eagles and was placed on injured reserve Monday, so Blake Hance figures to be the next man up to start at left guard.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
High interest from Browns?
Cleveland is of strong interest to the Browns, as the team may select him with a trade down in the first round, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Standig cites "multiple sources" as confirming the team's increasing infatuation with Cleveland, who significantly improved his draft stock with a dominant performance at the combine back in February. Standig's colleague Dane Brugler projects the Boise State product as likely to go between late in the first round and early in the second; meanwhile, the Browns' first two picks come at No. 10 and No. 41, meaning grabbing Cleveland without overreach or risk of losing him will likely require a trade down into the latter portion of the first round. Standig notes the Browns could fortunately have some willing partners in the form of teams trying to trade up for one of the top four tackles or an elite receiver.
