Browns Injury Report: Joel Bitonio, Juan Thornhill still out with Texans approaching

We are now just two days from the Week 16 matchup between the Cleveland Browns and the Houston Texans. The Browns will look to all but solidify their playoff slot with a win in Houston, who will be without their second and third overall picks. While the Texans will be starting quarterback Case Keenum, the Browns are still without a few starters, including guard Joel Bitonio and safety Juan Thornhill, in practice.

While there is still one opportunity to practice this week still, Thornhill has now missed two games in a row, trending toward his third. Bitonio left during the win against the Chicago Bears, hurting his back in the first quarter a week ago. He is hopeful to play against the Texans.

They are not the only players who either missed practice on Thursday for the Browns or were limited as they prepare for the Texans. Here is the full injury report as Cleveland gets set to travel to Houston.
