Key Points:
- The Cleveland Browns, who have not won a regular-season game in Pittsburgh since 2003, are heading into Sunday's AFC North showdown against the Steelers focused on the present rather than the 22-year losing streak.
- Browns players and coach Todd Monken emphasize concentrating on their current team and game preparation without dwelling on past results or rivalry history.
- Defensive tackle Jared Verse missed Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury but is expected to play, while Mike Hall Jr. returned after a high ankle sprain, potentially strengthening the Browns' defensive line.
- Steelers' Cam Heyward commented on addressing Jared Verse's previous remarks about dirty play, but Browns cornerback Denzel Ward remains focused solely on winning the game.
- Additional Browns players Tytus Howard (concussion) and Elgton Jenkins (knee) sat out practice, raising some concerns about the offensive line's health ahead of the matchup.
