BEREA -- Browns receiver/returner Josh Cribbs was among the injured players expected back at practice today, but he was not on the field during the 30 minutes of practice opened to media.
Cornerback Eric Wright did return.
Cribbs has missed considerable practice time after suffering a foot injury and dislocating four toes in the Jets game on Nov. 14. Cribbs did dress and play in the Carolina game last week, but only in the return game. He had three punt returns for 25 yards and four kickoffs for 89 yards. He was replaced at one point by Clifton Smith. Smith has since been waived.
Wright suffered a knee injury in the Nov. 21 game at Jacksonville. He was inactive last week against Carolina.
In other Browns news:
* The list of players not practicing was reduced to three, or four. Out were quarterback Colt McCoy (high ankle), linebacker Scott Fujita (knee), defensive end Kenyon Coleman (knee) and possibly defensive lineman Shaun Rogers (ankle).
* Cornerback Joe Haden was named NFL defensive rookie of the month for November. Haden had 15 tackles, seven passes defensed and three interception in the month. He's the first Browns defensive player to win the award since it was established in 1996.
