Wright playing, tight end shortage

Eric Wright will start against the Packers today. Early Friday morning Wright totaled his Mercedes in a one car accident when he lost control of his vehicle getting on a freeway entrance ramp. He injured his right shoulder and did not practice Friday.

. . . The Browns are really hurting at tight end. Greg Estandia is starting because Steve Heiden (knee) and Robert Royal (hamstring) are inactive . . . Phil Dawson is on the inactive list. The veteran kicker is missing his fifth straight game because of a calf injury.

. . . The Browns should be able to put heat on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Starting left tackle Chad Clifton is inactive with a knee injury. Starting center Jason Spitz is on the active list, but he isn't healthy enough to start. Scott Wells is starting instead. Look for Browns nose tackle Shaun Rogers to have a good game. The Browns should be able to shut down Packers runner Ryan Grant.
