Browns receiver Joe Jurevicius might not be ready for the start of the regular season, a source close to the situation said. Jurevicius has had multiple procedures on his knee in the off-season and is still rehabbing. He's not participating in minicamp, and it's not yet known what he'll be able to do in training camp. The source said it's much too early to predict whether he'll be ready for the season.

who?

June 12, 2008  08:22 AM ET

Joe with an actual SB Ring. Not stolen or anything.

Big suprise

He is a good player but it is not like he is necessary to have on the field for their first game of the season. As a veteran he helped the young guys like Braylon out with his presence in Cleveland last year but this year they should do well regardless of if he plays much or not.
I still like and respect this guy though. He is a real player's player.

Time to give Keyshawn Johnson a call !!!

June 12, 2008  12:39 PM ET

Call Keyshawn? The Browns do not recycle players like the Cowboys.

June 12, 2008  01:07 PM ET

They really don't need Keyshawn either. Stallworth should make up for Joe's not being there. Edwards is their number one and Winslow is really the number two pass catcher as the TE.

Read somehwere else he has a staph infection. Yes another Browns palyer with a staph infection, that's like 6 or 7.

If that is the case he could miss the entire season. It really makes you question the medical/training staff.

June 12, 2008  04:21 PM ET

He doesn't have a staph infection.....knock it off. Its the same injury that he had the entire '07 season. Joe was the 3rd WR anyways.....Kellen Winslow and Joshua Cribbs can easily play that role.

June 12, 2008  04:30 PM ET

this is as interesting as the Joe Horn article on T&R a few weeks ago. It's not at all.

Um Braylon, Winslow, Stalworth, and Joe Jura-who? By the way, Joe Horn is a piece of garbage.

June 12, 2008  04:35 PM ET

It said in the Cleveland paper that he acquired a staff infection after the surgery and is still recouping from that.

June 12, 2008  06:22 PM ET

Outisde of Joe Cribbs returning three freakin kick returns for touchdowns every game against the Steelers this guy has done more damage than any present Brown's player has

June 13, 2008  06:52 AM ET

He??s told ClevelandBrowns.com He??ll be ready for Camp.

June 13, 2008  07:40 AM ET

Staph infection... Where did he get the procedure done? I would think with some of the great medical facilities in Cleveland this would be a minor infection or hopefully a rumor.

Well now we know why the Browns are looking at trading for Parker from SD.
