Cleveland Browns rule out RB Peyton Hillis for Week 11

The frustrating and strange season for RB Peyton Hillis continues. The Cleveland Browns announced yesterday that the running back will miss his fifth straight game when the Jacksonville Jaguars come to Cleveland to play the Browns.Peyton Hillis 9

During his press conference on Monday, Browns head coach Pat Shurmur told reporters that he expects Hillis back in the Browns lineup at some point this season and the franchise has no current plans to place the running back on the injured reserve list.”Peyton’s making progress and so we’re hopeful he can be back after next week, hopefully, we’ll see”, said Shurmur.

One Browns player which could be placed on the injured reserve list is S T.J. Ward. Ward has been in a cast for over a week. Ward is suffering from a foot injury, claiming he heard a “pop” during the Browns game against the Houston Texans. If tests show that Ward’s injury is more serious than first believed, the club expects to place Ward on the injured reserve list, ending his season.
