Cleveland Browns: Projecting Trent Richardson's Role Against Eagles in Week 1

Browns rookie running back Trent Richardson made his long-awaited return to practice on Monday, an encouraging sign that the No. 3 overall pick in April’s draft will participate in Cleveland’s season opener on Sept. 9.
Richardson has been away from the practice field since undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery on Aug. 9, and missed the entire preseason.
However, head coach Pat Shurmur is “very optimistic” that the former Alabama star will play against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
The question on the minds of the Browns faithful is: exactly how much will he play?
“This kid is a little different cat,” general manager Tom Heckert said last week. “I think he’s ready to go pretty quick compared to some guys I’ve been around. Shape-wise, you do not have to worry about that at all.
“Obviously, we’re not going to say he’s going to touch the ball 50 times, I doubt that’s going to happen. I think there will be some, but hey if he’s ready to go, he’s ready to go. I know it’s not the best situation where he hasn’t played in the preseason, but if he gets a whole week of practice in, we’ll see how he is.”
