Lost in the hoopla regarding the concussion suffered by Browns quarterback Derek Anderson during Monday night’s game in the Meadowlands is the fact that Cleveland’s answer to Devin Hester injured an ankle.

Joshua Cribbs has a sprained ankle, and we’re told that the team and the player are still awaiting the results of an MRI.

The loss of Cribbs for any significant period of time would be a huge blow to the Browns.

In this same regard, we heard receiver Braylon Edwards talk about his sock-feet slice-and-dice routine on Sirius NFL Radio earlier in the day.  Though he’s widely expected to return from the freakish foot injury in time to participate in the regular-season opener, Edwards stopped short of declaring that he’ll definitely be ready. 

“Hopefully” was as far as he would go.
