Browns Activate Dylan Sampson, Place Teven Jenkins on IR Before Titans

Sampson is expected to play Sunday against Tennessee, while guard Teven Jenkins lands on injured reserve with a back injury

The Cleveland Browns activated running back Dylan Sampson from injured reserve Saturday, and he is expected to play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported. Cleveland also placed guard Teven Jenkins on IR with a back injury and elevated defensive tackle Sam Kamara from the practice squad.

Safety Grant Delpit also cleared the concussion protocol and is expected to play.

Sampson's return gives Cleveland the backfield pairing it has been waiting on. Quinshon Judkins says he is good to go after an ankle sprain, and head coach Todd Monken said Friday he anticipated having Sampson back, calling him "so explosive."

Jenkins had not practiced all week, and the IR move costs the Browns a starting-caliber guard for at least the next four games. Kickoff against the Titans is Sunday; watch how Cleveland splits carries between Judkins and Sampson and who fills Jenkins' spot up front.
