The Browns placed Hurst (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday. Hurst was already ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh due to an ankle injury. However, the issue is serious enough that the 2018 fifth-round pick will be placed on injured reserve, which will require him to miss at least the next four regular-season games. That means Hurst could be activated off IR ahead of the Browns' regular-season finale against the Ravens on Sunday, Jan. 5. If Hurst doesn't play Week 18 and assuming the Browns don't make the playoffs, he would end his 2024 campaign with 16 tackles (nine solo), including 0.5 sacks, across eight regular-season games.

The Browns placed Hurst (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday. Hurst was already ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh due to an ankle injury. However, the issue is serious enough that the 2018 fifth-round pick will be placed on injured reserve, which will require him to miss at least the next four regular-season games. That means Hurst could be activated off IR ahead of the Browns' regular-season finale against the Ravens on Sunday, Jan. 5. If Hurst doesn't play Week 18 and assuming the Browns don't make the playoffs, he would end his 2024 campaign with 16 tackles (nine solo), including 0.5 sacks, across eight regular-season games.
Hurst (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Hurst was unable to practice Thursday due to an ankle injury, and the issue is serious enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's AFC North clash. With Hurst out and Michael Hall (knee) on injured reserve, rookie seventh-rounder Jowon Briggs should see a significant increase in defensive snaps as the Browns' rotational defensive tackle behind starters Dalvin Tomlinson and Shelby Harris.
Hurst (ankle) is active Week 6 against the Eagles. Hurst hasn't seen the field since Week 1 and was only taken off the IR on Saturday, but he'll suit up to provide interior defensive line depth for the Browns in Sunday's road matchup.
The Browns activated Hurst (ankle) off injured reserve Saturday, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports. Hurst hurt his ankle Week 1 against Dallas and was subsequently placed on injured reserve. He's since missed the required four games and had his practice window opened this past Wednesday. Hurst still carries a designation of questionable heading into Sunday, but he has a good chance of playing versus the Eagles after logging an LP/LP/FP practice progression this week.
Hurst (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. Hurst has missed the Browns' last four games after sustaining an ankle injury in the Cleveland's Week 1 loss to the Cowboys, but it appears he's nearing a return to the field. The Browns will now have 21 days to activate Hurst to their active roster before he reverts to IR. He's expected to serve as a rotational interior defensive lineman once he fully recovers from his ankle issue.
Hurst (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Hurst exited the Browns' Week 1 loss to the Cowboys with the injury, which will now put him out for at least the next four weeks. His absence will be a blow to the interior of Cleveland's defensive line, which the team will attempt to address with the signing of Sam Kamara from its practice squad. Although a specific return date for Hurst beyond the minimum of four weeks is unknown, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com, head coach Kevin Stefanksi doesn't believe it's a season-ender for the Michigan product.
Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday that Hurst (ankle) is considered week-to-week, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. Hurst logged three total tackles while playing 29 total snaps (22 defensive and seven on special teams) during the Browns' Week 1 contest before sustaining an ankle injury. Expect Quinton Jefferson to see more work as a rotational interior defensive lineman while Hurst recovers.
Hurst (hamstring) was a full participant in Friday's practice and has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Hurst was limited earlier in the week due to a hamstring injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue just in time for Cleveland's regular-season opener Sunday. Expect the 29-year-old to serve as one of the Browns' top rotational defensive linemen in Week 1.
Hurst (undisclosed) is not practicing Tuesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Hurst was injured last week during joint practices with the Vikings and hasn't practiced since. According to head coach Kevin Stefanski, the Michigan product is "getting better," but he still isn't ready to return to the field.
