Rogers back; Dawson questionable
Browns coach Eric Mangini said Pro Bowl nose tackle Shaun Rogers returned Thursday after missing two days of practice for personal reasons.
''He was here for afternoon meetings, worked extra with (defensive line coach) Bryan Cox, he’ll do some extra work here today and he should be caught up,'' Mangini said.
Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan has no doubt Rogers will be ready for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.
''You know he's very intelligent and he's great enough, he'd never miss this game for the world,'' Ryan said.
On Friday's injury report, no Browns are listed as out or doubtful for the first time all season.
Kicker Phil Dawson, who has missed the past three games with a strained right calf, heads the list of those questionable. He's joined by Kenyon Coleman (groin), Eric Barton (neck), Rex Hadnot (knee), Steve Heiden (knee), D'Qwell Jackson (hamstring) and Robaire Smith (calf).
All six Steelers listed are probable, including safetyTroy Polamalu (knee) and running back Willie Parker (toe).
