Cleveland Browns: Week 5 inactives, live game thread
The Cleveland Browns see one big name finally leave the inactive list for the Week 5 matchup against Josh McCown and the New York Jets.
The Cleveland Browns remain on the quest for a single victory in 2017 as the New York Jets come to Cleveland this afternoon.
Josh McCown is starting for the Jets and looking to get his team to 3-2, but the Browns defense he faces today will feature a face not seen yet this season.
First, the inactives:

Myles Garrett is officially off the inactive list and set to make his NFL debut, meaning Browns fans may be in for the familiar sight of McCown laying on the turf.
The notable names on the list include Kenny Britt and Jamie Collins, who take up a nice chunk of the payroll. Fans may not be too worried about Britt’s absence, but Collins’ absence will be felt again as he remains in the concussion protocol.
The play of Garrett will be the focus of today’s game, but a win is all fans want.
We want you to have a place to discuss today’s game, (today’s win?), so be sure to comment on this post throughout the game.
Share your thoughts on how bummed you are that Britt isn’t playing and be sure to jump on the Bryce Treggs bandwagon if he makes a few big plays today. Maybe someone can even be the resident drop counter (RDC).

It is hard to declare any game a “must-win” for an 0-4 team, but a loss today may lead even the most diehard Browns fans to go enjoy nature on Sundays for the next 11 weeks.
