Peyton Hillis is Out for week 12

[Coachnorm]

An early out again this week.

Coach Pat Shurmur said that Hillis (hamstring) will be out Sunday against the Bengals, the Akron Beacon Journal's Nate Ulrich reports. Shurmur added that he's still hopeful that Hillis will be back this season, but did not offer a timetable for that, other than that he anticipates that the running back will be back soon.

Does he play again this season? I think he's medically fine....there must be some political crap going on keeping him from coming back.

I don't think so, I think he re-tore it in practice last week or so, and its worse than being let on. Screws him for his next contract, but then again, he wasn't lighting the world on fire when he was playing. I am curious if Cleveland even offers now...and instead drafts or goes with what they have. Of cours Hardesty can't stay healthy either so draft must be an option.
