5. Austin Hooper Scores Again For The Browns
Hooper caught 70 or more passes in each of his final two seasons with the Atlanta Falcons. This made him the top tight end in last year’s free agent class and the Browns signed him to a four-year, $42 million deal. So far, he has not fit into their scheme.
Hooper has caught just 12 passes for 96 yards in four games in Cleveland. He did just turn in his best game against an awful Dallas defense with five catches for 34 yards and a touchdown. Hooper is a red zone threat. The Browns have plenty of weapons and Hooper adds to that.
He could get more and more comfortable week-to-week with the Browns. Let’s say that Baker Mayfield finds Hooper in the end zone again in this one.
The Colts have one of the top defenses in football. They will key in on Beckham and Jarvis Landry in this one. Hooper could create some matchup problems.
