The Cleveland Browns are giving their usual veterans like guard Joel Bitonio and wide receiver Amari Cooper their regularly scheduled rest as they prepare for their Wild Card matchup against the Houston Texans.
This has been common practice for the Browns this season as the veterans on the roster have typically been given an extra day to rest up as the season gets long. Tight end David Njoku joined those veterans on their scheduled day off as well. There were, however, a great deal of other players who are still recovering from injuries as kicker Dustin Hopkins is unlikely to play.
However, players like cornerback Denzel Ward, defensive Shelby Harris (who exited the game against the Bengals with a shin injury), and punter Corey Bojorquez practiced in full for the Browns. They have gotten healthy at the right time after their much-needed week of rest in Week 18.
With just three days until the Browns take on the Texans, here is every player that was either limited in practice or did not practice on Tuesday for Cleveland.
