Browns running back Brandon Jackson passed his exit physical after being placed on the injured reserve in the preseason with turf toe. That means he will be ready to go for the team's offseason programs, and if the team doesn't re-sign Peyton Hillis, he would become the team's starting running back. One person who doesn't sound like they would've been ready is left guard Eric Steinbach, but Heckert said that the veteran lineman was "close to being able to return." Steinbach had surgery on his back before the start of the regular season. He is under contract for the next two years and is scheduled to make about $6 million next season.
