With Case Keenum (illness) slated to join Baker Mayfield (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Mullens is now a candidate to start Saturday's game against the Raiders, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The Browns currently have numerous players on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but Cabot relays that under the NFL's newly introduced COVID-19 protocols, some asymptomatic vaccinated players potentially could be cleared for the contest, with added clarity on that front likely to arrive Friday afternoon. If neither Mayfield nor Keenum gain clearance, however, Mullens -- who was elevated from Cleveland's practice squad Thursday -- would be in line to serve as the team's starter Week 15.
