BEREA -- Browns tight end Kellen Winslow is still at home being treated for an undisclosed illness and may not play in Sunday's game in Washington.

Coach Romeo Crennel said today that he's hoping to have Winslow available for the game and that he will, "if things keep progressing.''
Winslow sat out the Browns' 35-14 victory over the Giants Monday night after spending three nights at the Cleveland Clinic. He was released from the Clinic on Sunday, but could not play on game day. He was replaced by Steve Heiden, who caught five passes for 59 yards.

Crennel also ruled Shaun Smith out for the second straight week. Smith underwent surgery to repair a broken bone in his left hand during the bye week.

In other Browns news, cornerback Eric Wright was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for sealing the Browns victory with a 94-yard interception return for a touchdown. Right guard Kevin Shaffer (concussion) returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday.

If Heiden plays like he did against the Giants, I'm not really sure that we need Winslow because Heiden and Denkins are much better blockers and Heiden can catch the intermediate ball fairly well.
