The Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers kicked off their practice week on Wednesday with Thanksgiving just a sleep away. The Browns have been struggling but are hoping QB Shedeur Sanders can help lift the offense and DE Myles Garrett can continue to dominate the competition, setting impressive numbers to start the 2025 NFL season.
Cleveland is hoping the schedule and a few other details could help them knock off the 8-4 visiting Niners in Week 13. As always this late in the season, health can play a big role in games.

RB Christian McCaffrey – DNP
OT Trent Williams – DNP
OG Joel Bitonio – Limited
LB Devin Bush – Limited
DT Maliek Collins – Limited
