Thornhill posted 54 tackles and one pass defensed over 11 regular-season games in 2023. Thornhill had a noticeable drop-off in production from his days with the Chiefs. Both the team and the player expected more after Thornhill signed a three-year deal a year ago, and the Browns need more of his previous version this coming season. There was a nagging calf injury, and he may never have been completely healthy. Thornhill is expected to rejoin Grant Delpit (groin) on the back end of the Browns' defense.

Thornhill posted 54 tackles and one pass defensed over 11 regular-season games in 2023. Thornhill had a noticeable drop-off in production from his days with the Chiefs. Both the team and the player expected more after Thornhill signed a three-year deal a year ago, and the Browns need more of his previous version this coming season. There was a nagging calf injury, and he may never have been completely healthy. Thornhill is expected to rejoin Grant Delpit (groin) on the back end of the Browns' defense.
Thornhill sustained a calf injury in Week 10 against the Browns and missed the following week against the Steelers. He was able to string together two consecutive limited practice sessions leading up to Sunday's game and will suit up for the contest. Thornhill has 37 tackles (27 solo) in eight games this season.
Thornhill missed the team's Week 11 win over the Steelers, but he has a chance to return Sunday in Denver. Rookie Ronnie Hickman would likely see additional playing time at free safety again if Thornhill remains sidelined against the Broncos.
Thornhill sat out of Sunday's win versus the Steelers due to a calf injury, and he's now missing the Browns' first practice of the new week. Unless he can practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday, he'll likely be sidelined again in Week 12.
Thornhill will be sidelined for the second time this season in Week 11 as he nurses a calf injury he sustained in Week 10 at Baltimore. In his absence, Rodney McLeod will probably start at safety next to Grant Delpit on Sunday.
Thornhill was forced out of Sunday's win at Baltimore early with a calf injury, which is now holding him out of the Browns' first practice of the new week. He'll probably need to return to practice Thursday or Friday to have a shot to suit up in Week 11.
Thornhill exited early in the second half with the injury and was originally labeled questionable to return. However, the Virginia product will not be able to return, which should leave extra work for Rodney McLeod.
Thornhill tallied three tackles (two solo) before exiting the contest. It remains to be seen if he will be able to return. In his absence, Rodney McLeod is the likely candidate to fill in at free safety.
