The Browns say there's no issue with Quinshon Judkins' reduced playing time.
Running backs coach Duce Staley called his season low 34% snap share against the Saints a result of "situational football."
Dylan Sampson played 64% of the snaps, but Judkins should still handle most of the early down work moving forward.
Judkins has averaged just 3.3 yards per carry this season and has been below 3.0 in each of the last two games. He's looking more like an RB3/FLEX option against Houston this week.
