Development in NFL involving Baker Mayfield and Denzel Ward (TB / CLE).

Where he fits
Denzel Ward plays for the CLE as a DB, wearing number 21. He's in year 9 of his career.
His job: The team's own depth chart lists him first at left cornerback — that's the order they'd normally use.
Last time out: He was active but didn't record any counting stats. He was only on the field for about 0% of the offensive plays, so he is a situational piece right now.
He isn't on the official week 2 injury report — no designation was filed for him.

How his team's doing: CLE are 0-1 this season — meaning they've won 0 of the games they've played. They're number 4 in their division right now. Current run: L1.
From the shared sports feed, refreshed within the last few hours. Nothing on the injury report for him — or we can't verify it right now, in which case we leave it out.
