Browns' Tony Fields: Amasses game-high nine tackles
Rotowire
Fields recorded nine tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Commanders.
With five Cleveland linebackers currently on injured reserve, Fields has benefitted with more playing time down the regular season stretch. The second-year pro has now compiled 19 stops across the last two games, and he'll look to finish the campaign on a high note when the Browns travel to Pittsburgh in Week 18.

Browns' Tony Fields: Sets another career high in loss
Rotowire
Fields recorded 10 tackles (six solo) in Saturday's 17-10 loss to the Saints.
For the second consecutive game, Fields set a new career high (10) in the tackling department, after he amassed a career-high six stops versus Baltimore the week prior. The second-year pro has benefitted from the absences of fellow linebackers Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (foot), Jacob Phillips (pectoral), Anthony Walker (quadriceps) and Sione Takitaki (knee) over the last few weeks, and Fields should continue to do so when the Browns square off against Washington on New Year's Day.

Browns' Tony Fields: Pick six Sunday
Rotowire
Fields recorded four tackles (three solo), a forced fumble and an interception returned for a touchdown in Sunday's 27-14 win over the Texans.
Fields logged one of the Browns' two defensive touchdowns against Houston, picking off Kyle Allen for a 16-yard return in the fourth quarter. The second-year linebacker also forced a fumble that led to a four-yard scoop-and-score touchdown by cornerback Denzel early in the third quarter. Fields' 30 defensive snaps marked the most significant playing time of his career, and he'll likely be on tap for increased usage moving forward after starting linebacker Sione Takitaki suffered a torn ACL on Sunday.

Browns' Tony Fields: Questionable for Week 5
Rotowire
Fields (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Chargers.
Fields has been a limited participant in practice all week, so his status for Sunday is really up in the air. The linebacker has missed only one game this season, and that was due to an illness. Expect Sione Takitaki to see an even larger role Sunday if Fields is unable to play.
