| Player Notes |
| December 21, 2006 Reuben Droughns was back at practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session to tend to a personal matter, according to the Browns website. Droughns had been listed as questionable because of a foot injury, but he was removed from the injury report after practice. |
| December 3, 2006 Reuben Droughns, who has been dealing with a foot injury, got the start against the Chiefs on Sunday and was effective for one of the few times this year. He rushed 14 times for 70 yards (5.0 YPC) and a score, and he also caught five balls for 48 yards. This was just the second time all year he's averaged at least 4.0 YPC in a game. Jason Wright also got some work, but he struggled, managing just 25 yards on 11 carries. |
| December 1, 2006 Reuben Droughns was upgraded to probable Friday, according to the Browns official site. He's dealing with a foot injury. It's still not clear how the team plans to divvy up the workload between Droughns and Jason Wright, but at least Droughns should be on the field against Kansas City. |
| December 1, 2006 Reuben Droughns returned to practice Thursday after sitting the previous day. He's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game with the Chiefs; he's dealing with a sore foot. The Browns have not declared in public how they plan to divvy up the work in the backfield; Jason Wright received most of the carries last week while Droughns only got two attempts (in addition to some special-teams work) . |
| November 30, 2006 Reuben Droughns has stated that he doesn't know why he was benched in favor of Jason Wright last week, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "I'm kind of in the dark right now," he said. "But at the same time, they've got some younger guys that they have trust in and it's just one of those situations that you've got to understand the moves that they're trying to make." Droughns carried the ball just twice in Week 12, although Wright didn't get much more work, carrying just five times. |
| November 28, 2006 Coach Romeo Crennel said he benched Reuben Droughns Sunday partly because of his sprained foot and partly because Jason Wright hit the holes well against Pittsburgh in Week 11, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Droughns received just two carries on the day. When asked if Droughns would return as the starter this year, Crennel responded, "When his foot heals, we'll see if that's the case." |
| November 26, 2006 Reuben Droughns returned to action on Sunday but carried only two times for four yards. He caught one pass for five yards. |
| November 26, 2006 Reuben Droughns is active for the Browns today. He is expected to share carries with Jason Wright. |
| November 24, 2006 Reuben Droughns practiced without restrictions Wednesday and Thursday and is expected to play against the Bengals, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Droughns is dealing with a sprained foot. Even if Droughns is in the lineup, it's very likely he'll be splitting carries with Jason Wright. |
| November 23, 2006 Even though Reuben Droughns may return to action this weekend, Jason Wright could still figure into the workload, according to the Akron Beacon Journal. Coach Romeo Crennel stated that he was intrigued to see what a combination of Droughns and Wright could accomplish. |
| November 22, 2006 Reuben Droughns was back at practice on Wednesday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, according to the Browns website. "I think he's better," head coach Romeo Crennel said. "We'll see as the week goes along." Droughns missed last week's game with a sprained foot. |
| November 21, 2006 Coach Romeo Crennel is hoping that Reuben Droughns will be ready to go against the Bengals this weekend, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Droughns missed Week 11 with a sprained foot. |
| November 19, 2006 Reuben Droughns is inactive for the Browns today because of his foot injury, according to the team's website. Jason Wright will start in place of Droughns, and Jerome Harrison should get some carries as well. |
| November 18, 2006 Although Reuben Droughns said he's holding out hope of playing Sunday, he will be a game-time decision due to his sore foot, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. He missed at least some, though probably all, of Friday's practice to rest up. Jason Wright and rookie Jerome Harrison would carry the load if Droughns can't go, with Wright the likely starter. |
| November 17, 2006 Romeo Crennell says Reuben Droughns may be able to play this weekend even if he doesn't practice with the team, according to the Akron Beacon-Journal. Droughns has a sore foot and hasn't worked with the team the last couple of days, though the foot was taken out of the walking boot Thursday. Jason Wright would likely start for the Browns if Droughns can't go against Pittsburgh, with Jerome Harrison also looking at an expanded role in that case. |
| November 16, 2006 Reuben Droughns was out of his protective boot on Thursday and stretched with teammates, but he still missed portions of practice, according to the Browns website. Droughns is still listed as questionable for Sunday's game with a sprained foot. |
| November 15, 2006 Reuben Droughns didn't practice Wednesday and was walking around with a protective boot on his sprained foot. Droughns is listed as questionable for Sunday, and coach Romeo Crennel said they would evaluate the running back as the week goes on. |
| October 25, 2006 Reuben Droughns's lawyer said that the domestic violence case against his client will be dropped, according to the AP. "I'm assuming that they (prosecutors) finally listened to me and determined they didn't have a case to begin with," Attorney Harvey Steinberg said. This means that Droughns shouldn't face any residual punishment from the NFL. |
| October 22, 2006 Reuben Droughns went nowhere Sunday against a stiff Denver rush defense, running for only 33 yards on 12 carries. Droughns had a nice game against the pourus Raiders in Week 4 but has otherwise had an unproductive season. |
| October 20, 2006 Reuben Droughns says his shoulder rested up nicely during the bye week and he's not listed on the Week 7 injury report. Droughns will get a tough assignment Sunday when he goes up against Denver's excellent defense. |
| October 6, 2006 Reuben Droughns was able to practice with his sore shoulder Thursday, though the Browns are still listing him as questionable for Week 5. Barring a setback, Droughns should play and take a full load at Carolina. |
| September 29, 2006 Reuben Droughns has practiced all week and intends to start at Oakland, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. He's battling a shoulder injury and is listed as questionable. Head coach Romeo Crennel blames his offensive line for Droughns' slow start. "I've found this about running backs -- when there's no hole, they all look the same," Crennel said Thursday. "Maybe that's why he doesn't look like he did last year." |
| September 25, 2006 Reuben Droughns said Monday that he will return from his shoulder injury to face the Raiders this week, according to the Browns website. "Yeah, you can count me in," Droughns said. "I thought about playing yesterday, but it was better that I didn't and risk getting hurt worse. All it would have taken for that to happen is someone trying to rip the ball out of my hands." |
| September 24, 2006 Reuben Droughns was inactive Sunday for the Browns because of a shoulder injury. Jason Wright started in place of Droughns. |

| September 21, 2006 Reuben Droughns is listed as questionable with a shoulder injury he suffered last week, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Coach Romeo Crennel declined to share the results of Droughns' MRI from Monday, but the running back was not in pads Wednesday. |
| September 19, 2006 Reuben Droughns underwent an MRI on his injured shoulder on Monday, and his status for Sunday's game is uncertain, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "He got banged up a little bit," coach Romeo Crennel said. "The doctors are looking at him and they'll decide if it's serious or not. He got hit on the shoulder." Droughn's suffered the injury in the first half of Sunday's game. |
| August 22, 2006 Reuben Droughns pleaded not guilty Monday to domestic violence charges involving his wife, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. A motions hearing will held Oct. 25, but Droughns does not have to be there. He's expected to be back at practice today. |

| March 4, 2006 The Browns signed Reuben Droughns to a four-year, $13.2 million contract extension yesterday that will keep him in Cleveland through the 2009 season, according to the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. Droughns was the first Browns running back in 20 years to top 1,000 rushing yards last season. |
| January 3, 2006 Reuben Droughns wants his contract redone in the offseason and made no promises about whether he would report to training camp without a new contract, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "It's kind of hard to say," said Droughns when asked if he'd be here for the opening of camp. |
