Trent Richardson injury: Browns RB practices with team

The second-year running back seems to be fully recovered from his injury woes.

USA TODAY Sports

Cleveland Browns running back Trent Richardson reported to the team's pre-camp last week and was able to fully participate, according to The Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot. Richardson is ready to go as the Browns open training camp.

The former Alabama standout had a productive rookie season, but he has struggled with a variety of injuries. Richardson suffered through much of 2012 with broken ribs, and more recently, he’s been recovering from a pulled shin muscle, which occurred during offseason team activities. There was some doubt over whether Richardson would be ready for training camp, but the healing process appears to be ahead of schedule.

Despite the broken ribs and various other nagging injuries, Richardson put up solid numbers last year. In 15 games, he rushed 267 times for 950 yards and 11 touchdowns, averaging 3.6 yards per carry. His best game came on Oct. 28, when he carried 24 times for 122 yards and a score in a 7-6 win over the San Diego Chargers.
