BEREA, Ohio-- Cleveland Browns return specialist - and part-time quarterback - Joshua Cribbs injured his right ankle while running a pass pattern during practice Wednesday.
Cribbs was cutting back for a pass when he came up limping. After walking to the sideline in Cleveland's indoor practice field, Cribbs had his ankle examined by a trainer.
As he was leaving to get his ankle re-taped, the media was asked to leave at the end of the 30-minute period that practice is open for viewing.
A team spokesperson said Cribbs later returned to practice.
The Browns are expected to use Cribbs in a more prominent role in their offense this Sunday against Pittsburgh because they are down to starting fourth-stringer Bruce Gradkowski.
