Browns' Jordan Akins: Little impact in loss
Jordan Akins did not catch his lone target in Monday's 41-32 loss to Denver in Week 13.Like many of Cleveland's receivers, Akins has experienced an uptick in activity and production with Jameis Winston at quarterback. The tight end had a limited role Monday however, even though Winston attempted 58 passes and David Njoku had a team-high 17 targets. Winston's not afraid to spread the ball around, so Akins, who averaged four targets over the three preceding games, could get some looks in Week 14 against the Steelers.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Three catches in win
Jordan Akins caught three of four targets for 38 yards in Thursday's 24-19 win over Pittsburgh in Week 12.Akins continued a renaissance in a Jameis Winston-led offense. The outing was his fourth in the last five games in which he was targeted four times. The lone blemish Thursday was a drop on a play that looked like he had a clear path to the end zone if he secured the ball. David Njoku remains the clear No. 1 at tight end, but he had an off night in the wind and snow of Cleveland, leading him to haul in just one of his five targets.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Four targets in loss
Jordan Akins caught one of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints in Week 11.Akins, who had two red-zone targets, was caught up in an offense that finished with 47 passing attempts. It was the third consecutive week the Cleveland Browns have aired it out more than 40 times and the second straight week with four targets for Akins, who has four red-zone targets this season. He's not about to challenge the team's top targets, but all that volume could lead to a red-zone score.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Three catches in loss
Jordan Akins caught three of four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Chargers.After a one-target performance a week ago, Akins saw a modest increase in volume Sunday. He was on the field for 25 snaps, the most he's seen since David Njoku returned from injury, but there's no reason to believe the boost is sustainable. The loss dropped the Cleveland Browns to 2-7 as they enter a bye week, and the club may start preparing for 2025 by dealing veterans ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. The 32-year-old Akins, in the final year of his contract, is likely not part of the organization's future.

Browns' Jordan Akins: One target in win
Jordan Akins failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 29-24 win over the Ravens in Week 8.Akins, who played 15 snaps (22 percent share), had a bit role in Cleveland's first game following the season-ending Achilles injury suffered by quarterback Deshaun Watson. The tight end's usage had more to do with David Njoku being fully healthy than which quarterback was in the game, but Week 8 was a significant drop-off for Akins, who had four catches for 42 yards last week, including a 21-yard reception. Geoff Swaim, the other tight end competing for scraps behind Njoku, caught his lone target and was on the field for 21 snaps.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Four catches in loss
Jordan Akins caught all four targets for a season-high 42 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Bengals in Week 7.Cleveland's tight ends had a big day in the first game after the organization traded Amari Cooper to the Bills. Akins and starter David Njoku combined for 18 targets, the most for the tight end position this season. In a related note that impacts all receivers, quarterbacks Deshaun Watson (Achilles) and Dorian Thompson-Robinson (finger) were removed from the game, leaving Jameis Winston to close out the contest. At this point, the Cleveland Browns don't know who will be starting at quarterback next week against Baltimore.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Five snaps in loss
Jordan Akins was untargeted over five snaps in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.David Njoku finally stayed healthy for a full game, an event that was expected to limit Akins' involvement, but his severely reduced snap count was surprising. Geoff Swaim, a free agent that was added to the practice squad after Week 1 and eventually signed to the active roster, had the second-most snaps (19) among Cleveland tight ends behind Njoku's 42.

Browns' Jordan Akins: Resuming backup role
Jordan Akins will be the top backup in Sunday's game against the Eagles, as starter David Njoku (knee, ankle) no longer has an injury designation on the Cleveland Browns' injury report.Njoku, who aggravated an ankle injury and sustained a knee injury last week and has yet to play a complete game in 2024, will resume his normal role as Cleveland's top tight end. When Njoku's been unavailable, Akins has been forced into a larger role, including that of the top tight end in three of five games thus far, and has led the team's tight ends in snaps in four of five games. Akins has 12 catches on 17 targets for 98 yards and a touchdown.

Akins could be headed for a bigger role again in Week 6 against the Eagles.
