Peoples-Jones caught four of eight targets for 48 yards in Monday's 16-14 loss to the Raiders.
Peoples-Jones led the team in targets and receiving yards, as he was the top receiving option for quarterback Nick Mullens with wide receiver Jarvis Landry, as well as quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum, all on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Raiders defensive back Brandon Facyson knocked the ball out of Peoples-Jones' hand to prevent what should have been a big gain along the sideline in the first half, but he heated up late and converted two crucial third downs on Cleveland's go-ahead drive in the fourth quarter. Peoples-Jones also served as the primary punt returner, one week after rookie Demetric Felton muffed a pair of kicks in last week's win over the Ravens. If Landry isn't ready to return Week 16 against the Packers, Peoples-Jones will remain atop the Browns' wide receiver depth chart.
