Browns rookie right guard Shawn Lauvao will sit out practice today with his twisted ankle and safety NIck Sorensen will return to practice for the first time since suffering a concussion in Detroit Aug. 28.
Rookie Shawn Lauvao (ankle) will not practice today, but safety Nick Sorensen (concussion)will. CLEVELAND -- Browns rookie right guard Shawn Lauvao will sit out practice today with his twisted anke and was in a walking boot on Thursday. His availability for Sunday's opener in Tampa is unknown.
But safety Nick Sorensen, who suffered a concussion when he got knocked out cold in Detroit Aug. 28, will practice for the first time since that crushing helmet-to-helmet collision.
Browns coach Eric Mangini declined to name his starters at right guard and right tackle, in part because of the uncertainty over Lauvao. Floyd Womack, who underwent arthroscopic knee surgery last month, should be available for starting duty at right guard. Either Tony Pashos or John St. Clair will get the nod at right tackle.
