Logs four tackles vs. Tennessee
Hickman logged four tackles (three solo) during the Browns' 31-29 loss to the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Hickman and Carson Schwesinger were the only two Browns defenders to play every single defensive snap, though the former had just four tackles to show for it. Even so, Hickman is up to 80 combined tackles through 13 regular-season games, far surpassing his total from the 2024 campaign (45 tackles across 14 regular-season games). He has four more regular-season games to crack the tackling century mark for the first time in his three-year NFL career.

Analysis: Hickman was able to compile at least five takedowns for the second straight game and third time in the last four contests. The safety has been thrust into a more prominent role this season, compiling 68 total tackles (32 solo) and three passes defensed, including two interceptions, over 11 contests so far.

Tallies nine tackles Sunday
Hickman totaled nine tackles (three solo) during Cleveland's loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: Hickman finished second on the team in tackles behind Carson Schwesinger's 10 while playing every defensive snap for the Browns. The 24-year-old is off to a strong start this season across his first 10 outings, as he's already set new career-high totals in both tackles and interceptions. He will look to keep producing during the Week 12 matchup versus the Raiders.

Picks off pass in Week 7 win
Hickman recorded two tackles (one solo) and an interception in Sunday's 31-6 victory versus the Dolphins.

Career-high 10 tackles in loss
Hickman logged 10 tackles (six solo) during the Browns' 21-17 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Hickman played every defensive snap and reached double-digit tackles for the first time in his three-year NFL career, and he finished second on the Browns in tackles behind Carson Schwesinger (11).

Leads team in tackles
Hickman recorded nine tackles, including one behind the line of scrimmage, in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Lions in Week 4.
Analysis: That was a career-high number of tackles for Hickman who topped the Browns and has 22 stops through the first four weeks. The 2023 undrafted free agent is poised to blow past the 45 tackles he recorded last season. Hickman has played every defensive snap in 2025 while also working on special teams and should reach new playing-time levels by midseason if healthy.

Makes 45 stops in 2024
Hickman tallied 45 tackles (26 solo), one pass breakup and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season appearances with the Browns in 2024.
Analysis: Hickman missed three games due to injury but overall impressed in Year 2, increasing his production across the board compared to his rookie season. During the offseason, it's possible he gets a chance to truly compete with Juan Thornhill and/or Grant Delpit for a starting gig at safety. Hickman is entering the final year of his contract with the Browns, though he'll be a restricted free agent in 2026.

Ready to rock
Hickman (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: The 23-year-old upgraded from limited participation Wednesday and Thursday to a full practice Friday, indicating that he's moved past his ankle issue in time for Sunday's contest. With Hickman back at full health, he's expected to serve as the Browns' top backup safety behind both Juan Thornhill and Grant Delpit.

Limited to open week
Hickman (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hickman has been sidelined for the Browns' last three games after suffering an ankle injury in Week 5 against the Commanders. He's trending in the right direction by practicing Wednesday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- and his practice participation over the next two days will indicate whether he'll be able to suit up against the Chargers on Sunday. Over the first five games of the regular season, Hickman logged 17 tackles (16 solo), one pass breakup and one fumble recovery.

Won't play vs. Baltimore
Hickman (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Hickman will miss a third straight game due to an ankle injury he picked up in Week 5 against the Commanders. He'll look to return to practice ahead of the Browns' Week 9 contest against the Chargers on Sunday, Nov. 3. Rodney McLeod and D'Anthony Bell will serve as Cleveland's backup safeties Sunday behind starters Grant Delpit and Juan Thornhill.

Still tending to injury
Hickman (ankle) is not practicing Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Hickman has already missed the Browns' last two games and appears to be in danger of missing a third straight contest. The Ohio State product will likely need to get on the practice field in some capacity Thursday if he is going to suit up Sunday against the Ravens.

Won't play Sunday
Hickman (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the Eagles, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hickman missing Sunday's contest comes as no surprise, as the 23-year-old was held out of practice both Wednesday and Thursday after sustaining an ankle injury during the Browns' Week 5 loss to the Commanders. Expect D'Anthony Bell to serve as Cleveland's top free safety in Hickman's stead.

Logs DNP on Wednesday
Hickman (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hickman seemingly sustained this ankle injury during the Browns' Week 5 loss to the Commanders, as he recorded three total tackles on just 15 snaps (13 defensive and two on special teams), his lowest snap-count of the season. The 22-year-old's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide a better indication of his potential availability for Week 6, when the Browns travel to Philadelphia.

Over those three starts, Hickman has tallied 14 solo tackles, one pass defended and one fumble recovery.
