LeCharles Bentley has been cleared to practice by his surgeon. I am glad to see that he has been able to pull his career back from the brink of death.

I'm glad to see him get back onto the field but, as said before, the real question is if he can play at the same level as before the injury. I think he has the heart and will to do it but this was a pretty serious injury with some nasty infections. I'm sure it took a lot out of him but he has had right at a year now since the injury and we have seen some guys come back in 9 months.

I'm pulling for him though to become a Pro-Bowl caliber center again!

If Bentley is only at 85% he will still improve our OL. He was a top 3 C before his injury. Some in Cleveland believe that he may move back to RG, the position he played when elected to his 1st pro bowl.

Either way, I just hope he doesn't rush himself. We need him for the long haul.

I hope Bentley revives his career. Cleveland deserves it after all the losing. That offensive line could be sick with Thomas, Steinbech, Fraley, Bentley, and Schaffer.

Awesome news for him... I hope he can have a successful and injury-free year. He's got loads of talent and could be one of the best in the NFL if at 100%. He's had to endure a lot and I wish him the best.

Wow...fantastic news!!! That's great to hear that he's doing better. For you Browns fans, I hope he's able to play this season. Maybe he can take a game off when we play you guys though Laughing

Really glad to hear this for the Browns and LeCharles. Looking at that line if healthy and 100%, Jamal Lewis could have a pretty good year. Not to mention what it would do for the passing game.

I really hope he is able to come back and play this year. He would help out that OL so much it would be a good for whatever QB is playing behind him.
