Jarvis Landry designated to return from IR

The Cleveland Browns have designated the wide receiver to return from injured reserve after missing the previous three games.

An integral part of the Cleveland Browns passing game could be returning sooner rather than later. Jarvis Landry has been designated to return from injured reserve after suffering a MCL sprain in Week 2. The team will still have to activate Landry to the active roster and they have 21 days to do so.

While Jarvis Landry is not the most talented wide receiver on the team (that title belongs to Odell Beckham Jr.), he is the most important. Landry is a safety blanket for Baker Mayfield who has been inconsistent during Landry’s absence. Perhaps Mayfield is able to improve his performance once Landry returns to the lineup.
