Sixteen days ago, he wasn’t even on the team. On Sunday, rookie running back Quinshon Judkins made a major contribution to the Browns’ first win of the season.
In his first start, Judkins participated in 36 snaps. He had 19 touches. His 18 rushing attempts generated 94 yards, including Cleveland’s only touchdown of the day.
Judkins signed his four-year rookie deal on September 6, the day before the first game of the regular season.
He had 61 yards on only 10 carries in his Week 2 debut against the Ravens, with three receptions for 10 more yards in only 20 total plays.
He has 155 rushing yards in two games. Former Ohio State teammate TreVeyon Henderson, taken by the Patriots only two spots later, has 65 rushing yards in three games.
