Browns | Pat Shurmur eliminates any controversy at RB

Cleveland Browns head coach Pat Shurmur said Wednesday, Oct. 26, that RB Peyton Hillis (hamstring) will start in Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers if healthy. "He is our starting halfback. If he is healthy, he is going to start this game," Shurmur said. The coach said RB Montario Hardesty earned more playing time after posting career highs with 33 carries and 95 yards in Week 7 with Hillis inactive.
