Jamal Lewis Will Miss Game Against Baltimore Ravens

Cleveland starting running back Jamal Lewis will not play against the Baltimore Ravens. Also out for the Cleveland Browns are kicker Phil Dawson, and offensive lineman Rex and Floyd Womack.

Lewis will be replaced at running back by the tandem of Jerome Harrison and James Davis. Harrison has shown flashes of productivity but his year got off to a stumbling start with injury problems. Davis, a 2009 draft choice out of Clemson, dominated in the preseason but has yet to contribute to the offense and had injury problems himself after getting into a car wreck and later sustained a shoulder injury during a game which limited his action.

Taking over the placekicking duties for the Browns will be Billy Cundiff who was signed as a free agent. The 29 year old journeyman had stints with Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons, Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions. Am I the only one who wonders why they Browns didn't sign Matt Stover to add a little bit of intrigue to tomorrows game which will likely be a lopsided affair?
