Reports indicate Denzel Ward, Greedy Williams, Rashard Higgins will all not play vs. 49ers

The Cleveland Browns will be shorthanded once again when they kick off Monday Night Football in Week 5 against the San Francisco 49ers. Both starting cornerbacks, Denzel Ward and Greedy Williams, are expected to miss their third consecutive game with matching hamstring injuries.

A report from Pro Football Talk indicates that even though the starting CBs are officially listed as questionable, neither is expected to get back on the field in Week 5. Terrance Mitchell and T.J. Carrie would once again start in their places, with more playing time for Eric Murray as well.

A late report from Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com indicates wideout Rashard Higgins will join the CBs on the sidelines. He has not played since Week 1.

The Browns and 49ers kick off at 8:15 ET on Monday night.
