CLEVELAND — The Browns have little time to ice their ample bumps and bruises this week.
The unbeaten, unforgiving Bengals are looming.
With a Thursday night matchup against Cincinnati, Cleveland's banged-up players — most notably starting quarterback Josh McCown — don't have the luxury of taking an extra day or two to heal up.
McCown, who has taken a pounding in recent weeks, injured his ribs in the second half of Sunday's loss to Arizona and it's not yet known if he'll be able to face the AFC North's top team.
Browns coach Mike Pettine would not divulge results of X-rays taken on McCown, who pushed through pain during a 34-20 loss to the Cardinals.
