Trent Richardson Refutes Injury Report

More information is coming in regarding the health of Cleveland Browns RB Trent Richardson. This time it's straight from the source. Richardson told reporters today that he has not been told that he will be out until August. He also stated that the report his leg injury was a result of someone stepping on his leg, was false. ESPNCleveland's Will Burge sent out recent updates via Twitter.

Clearly Richardson doesn't believe his leg injury is as serious previously thought. Yesterday it was reported that he'd be out until August. Now it appears that may not be the case.

At any rate, this is something to keep an eye on. If the Browns took the field Sunday, Richardson says he'd suit up. That's good enough for me.

Richardson says if there was a game Sun he would be playing and that he fully expects to be back for training camp in late July or early Aug
