Not in Cleveland, though, with a room headlined by Amari Cooper, Donovan Peoples-Jones and David Bell — three of the quietest and most low-key professional athletes you will ever meet.
- Jadeveon Clowney anxious to see Deshaun Watson on field (Beacon Journal) - Friday was the last practice the Browns held before Sunday’s game at Miami. The next time they get on the practice field after that game, they will have an additional person with them. Quarterback Deshaun Watson will be allowed to participate in on-field activities starting Monday. However, the Browns aren’t planning on any such workouts a day after returning from South Florida. That means Wednesday is the most likely day Watson returns to the field.

He’s not just being optimistic for the sake of it, either.

- Bills QB Josh Allen listed as questionable for Vikings game (The Buffalo News) - Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. Allen, who has a right elbow injury, was limited in Friday’s practice, the first time he practiced all week. When Bills coach Sean McDermott spoke to the media about 75 minutes before Friday’s practice, he said it was still being determined if Allen would practice Friday. After describing Allen earlier in the week as “day to day,” McDermott described the star quarterback as “hour to hour” on Friday.
