Nov 17 2009 - Robert Royal

Nov 17 2009 - Chris Jennings
RB Chris Jennings got seven carries spelling Jamal Lewis. Jennings played ahead of Jerome Harrison, but the results weren't impressive. Jennings finished with 18 yards on his carries.

Nov 17 2009 - Brady Quinn
QB Brady Quinn was given little more than a junior high school offense to run Monday night against Baltimore. Most plays consisted of quick rollouts and four-to-five yard passes. It's the main reason he threw for 99 yards on 31 passes. Quinn drew the ire of the Ravens for inexplicably going low and hitting Terrell Suggs in the knees while the Ravens were returning an interception. Quinn said he thought he was making a tackle, and apologized profusely after the game. But Suggs limped off with a sprained knee and could miss another month. The Ravens were quite angry about the play, which was a blatant cheap shot. To his credit, Quinn apologized. He does not seem like a player who would ever try to hurt another, but he probably will hear from the league about this hit. "I couldn't be more sorry," he said.

Nov 17 2009 - Joshua Cribbs
KR Josh Cribbs, one of the Browns best players, was prone on the field after the game Monday night after taking a shot to the throat from Ravens lineman Dwan Edwards. Cribbs was hit after making a lateral on a play the Browns inexplicably ran when they were down 16 with three seconds left. Edwards was running to get into the play, and he collided with Cribbs, who was not looking. Cribbs was strapped to a board and carted off, but teammates said he was moving all his limbs and joking while being treated. "We don't know the extent of the injury, but at the same time we think he will be all right," said TE Robert Royal.

Nov 15 2009 - Reggie Hodges
P Reggie Hodges signed Sunday with the Cleveland Browns. Hodges, who punted in four games for the Tennessee Titans this season, may punt Monday night against Baltimore as P Dave Zastudil is battling a knee injury.

Nov 14 2009 - Jamal Lewis
RB Jamal Lewis (ankle) was listed as questionable Friday in what is likely to be he final opportunity to play against his former team. Lewis has said he'll retire at the end of the season.

Nov 11 2009 - Jamal Lewis

Lewis, who has announced he will retire at the end of the season, has been held to 65.2 yards per game and 3.4 yards per carry in four games against the Ravens. Baltimore has limited him to two touchdowns total and none in the past two games. His best game against the Ravens was 92 yards in 2007.

Nov 11 2009 - Marcus Benard
LB Marcus Benard, who was elevated from the practice squad, is primarily an outside linebacker and Mangini plans to keep him there rather than overwhelm him by asking him to learn the responsibilities of an inside linebacker.

Nov 11 2009 - Mohamed Massaquoi
WR Mohamed Massaquoi said he has to relax more the second half of the season. He dropped six passes and fumbled once in the first half.

Nov 11 2009 - Kaluka Maiava

Nov 10 2009 - Thomas Brown
RB Thomas Brown was signed to the Browns' practice squad.

Nov 10 2009 - Jerome Harrison
RB Jerome Harrison continues to struggle to find a niche. Harrison can run, and his quickness and elusiveness allow him to do something with a pass after the reception. But his blocking and pass protection are so weak the Browns can't justify keeping him on the field.

Nov 10 2009 - Derek Anderson
QB Derek Anderson played so poorly as the starter it's hard to explain. Anderson's 36.2 rating is historically low, and his completion percentage of 42.9 was high schoolish. Anderson was not surrounded by playmakers, but he sure didn't help himself. He is expected to lose his starting job Monday night to Brady Quinn, who started the first three games.
