Browns designate C Ethan Pocic for return from Injured Reserve just in time for Saints

The Browns may be getting a massive boost this weekend

As the Cleveland Browns look to continue their winning ways, taking home victories in three of their last four outings, they may now get their starting center back in time for their Christmas Eve matchup against the New Orleans Saints. After hitting Injured Reserve after the Week 11 loss to the Buffalo Bills, center Ethan Pocic has been designated for return today by the Browns.

There is still one more step, as Pocic actually still has to be activated before Saturday, but the Browns could benefit from a top-three center this season returning. They have struggled to run the ball since Pocic hit IR, so getting him back could continue to awaken their run game after Nick Chubb managed to grind out 99 yards last week.
