The Cleveland Browns are expected to get some much-needed help on the defensive line in the rematch with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

According to Josina Anderson of ESPN, Cleveland Browns defensive end Olivier Vernon is expected to play.

Vernon has been out since he injured his knee against the Denver Broncos.

I’m told #Browns DE Olivier Vernon (knee) listed as questionable is expected to be active Sunday–barring something unexpected occurring before game time, per source.

On the season, Vernon has 23 tackles, 3 sacks and 1 forced fumble in 8 games.

The Browns will also have Larry Ogunjobi returning from his 1 game suspension that would give them 3 of their 4 starting defensive lineman against Pittsburgh.
