Jadeveon Clowney Returns to Practice, Browns One Step Closer to Having Pass Rush Tandem Back

The Cleveland Browns are on the brink of having their pass rush duo of Jadeveon Clowney and Myles Garrett back on the field.

Jadeveon Clowney returning to the o practice field on Friday was a welcome sight. Clowney missed the passed couple of games with a sprained ankle and is close to a return. That return could come as soon as Sunday against the Chargers.

The Browns were down three starting defensive linemen against the Atlanta Falcons and it showed down the stretch. Myles Garrett will be back against Los Angeles, while defensive tackle Taven Bryan could be. Clowney practicing is a good sign that he is not far off either.

Having Clowney back opposite Garrett will give the Browns their powerful pass-rushing tandem back against a very good opponent. Even if Clowney can’t go this week when it comes time for game time, he would surely be back next week.

Potentially have the duo back together allows the Browns to slide Alex Wright back to being depth, allowing him to develop and be a spot player.
