Mangini: Cribbs has feeling and movement

11.17.2009

Browns head coach Eric Mangini said Joshua Cribbs has "feeling and movement" throughout his body after Cribbs was carted off the field following Monday night's game.

Cribbs caught a pass on the game's final play and lateraled to Robert Royal. It appeared Cribbs didn't see Ravens defensive lineman Dwan Edwards, who was trailing the play and delivered the hit that left Cribbs lying at midfield for several minutes after the game ended.

"He has feeling in all parts of his body," Mangini said. "Really the reason we took him off on the board was more of a precautionary measure than anything else, from what I understand. He'll get some tests now, but that's the information that I just got."

Cribbs ran 6 times for 34 yards and caught 1 pass for 10 yards Monday night.

After the game, Browns tight end Robert Royal said Cribbs "was cracking jokes down there, so that was a good sign. He was moving his limbs. We don't know the extent of it, but we hope he'll be all right."
