Browns TE Heiden on IR with ankle injury
NFL.com wire reports
CLEVELAND (Dec. 27, 2005) -- Cleveland Browns tight end Steve Heiden was placed on injured reserve with an injured ankle, ending his season with one game left.
Heiden limped off the field Dec. 24 during a 41-0 home loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers and never returned after getting X-rays. The Browns did not release details about Heiden's ankle, which was injured earlier this season.
Heiden started 13 games this season, catching 43 passes for 401 yards and three touchdowns.
His 43 receptions, second on the team this season, are the most by a Browns tight end since Ozzie Newsome caught 62 passes in 1985.
The Browns (5-10) will close the season Jan. 1 at home against the Baltimore Ravens (6-9).
