Who Powered Through: Johnathan Joseph Set To Return This Weekend (Again)

by Josh Kirkendall on Dec 17, 2010 4:35 PM EST in Who Powered Through

Even with bone spurs in his left foot, Chad Ochocinco is listed as Probable for Sunday's season finale against the Cleveland Browns. Chad missed a practice this week and went limited on Wednesday before returning for a full practice on Friday. Terrell Owens, however, missed two practices this week, only going limited on Thursday, surfacing on the practice report as questionable with a knee.

The good news is that Johnathan Joseph, limited in three straight practices, is likely to play Sunday listed as Probable. It's good because Jonathan Wade, the cornerback starting in place of the injured Joseph, missed three practices and is listed as doubtful. Joseph has missed four of the past eight games with a high ankle sprain.

You have to give the guy credit. Instead of folding the season on a team that's 2-11, Joseph further risks injury during a contract year in which he's set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Keith Rivers and Pat Sims were limited all week, but are listed as probable.

As for the Browns, Cleveland could be without starting linebacker Scott Fujita and backup tight end Evan Moore.

J-Jo

is the type of man and player that everyone on our team should be more like. He’s quiet, badass on the field, doesn’t let contract BS get in the way, and he’s proved time and time again that he plays for the love of the game, for his teammates and for his city. Says alot about the type of guy he is to not pack it in this season
