On Thursday, running back Robert Turbin (ankle) practiced for the first time as a Cleveland Brown.
The team kept his repetitions limited, but Turbin was off the exercise bike and in his cleats, running full speed and catching passes with shoulder pads and a helmet on.
“I’m getting there,” Turbin said. “I’m getting real close.”
Running backs coach Wilbert Montgomery has been spending extra time with Turbin to make sure he’s mastering the offense. Because he hasn’t been able to participate on the field, Turbin said he’s made it a point of talking more with his new teammates in the locker room and cafeteria to build camaraderie.
