Key Browns players, including quarterback Deshaun Watson, defensive end Myles Garrett, and defensive tackle Shelby Harris, will not be participating in this preseason opener. Meanwhile, the Packers plan to play most of their starters, as coach Matt LaFleur confirmed earlier this week. This includes quarterback Jordan Love, who will face a Browns defense missing several key players like Dalvin Tomlinson (recovering from a knee procedure) and Shelby Harris (undisclosed injury).
The Browns also have several players recovering from injuries who are likely to sit out this game, waiting for later preseason matchups to return. This list includes wide receiver Elijah Moore (recently cleared from concussion protocol), linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (back spasms), and linebacker Tony Fields II (lower leg injury).
