Njoku has performed admirably through a series of underwhelming quarterback situations in Cleveland, so he'll be well prepared to handle a 2025 QB room with five viable candidates to make starts. He saw the second most targets (97) of his career last season, despite missing six games, while averaging a career-low 7.9 yards per catch in one of the NFL's worst offenses. He scored five TDs in those 11 games and averaged 45.9 receiving yards, down from a career-high 55.1 yards per game in 2023 (when he also had personal bests for every major counting stat). Njoku averaged 7.3 targets per game over the past three seasons, and he looks like the No. 2 option in Cleveland's passing game again, behind only WR Jerry Jeudy. The Browns did spend a third-round pick on fellow tight end Harold Fannin, last year's FBS leader in catches, but he may only play in multi-TE sets as a rookie rather than threatening Njoku's usage right away. Apart from Fannin's presence, the biggest concerns for Njoku are the overall quality of Cleveland's offense and a lengthy history of nagging injuries as he approaches his age-29 campaign.
