Browns' Amari Cooper: Not practicing, but should play

Cooper (heel/rest) isn't practicing Wednesday, but he said he'll be ready to go for Saturday's game in Houston, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Cooper missed the final two games of the regular season, including a Week 18 contest that had no potential to impact to the Browns' playoff seeding. He didn't practice Tuesday or Wednesday, but the addition of 'rest' to his injury classification on the Browns' practice report for the wild-card round suggests Cooper is expected to play this Saturday. He said he could have played in the Week 18 loss to the Bengals if needed, per Jake Trotter of ESPN.com.
