Jurevicius still has swelling in knee

Jul 1, 2008 - 9:02 PM BEREA, Ohio (Ticker) -- Cleveland Browns wide receiver Joe Jurevicius is still experiencing swelling and discomfort in his right knee, putting his status for the start of training camp on July 23 in jeopardy.

Entering his 11th season, the 33-year-old Jurevicius had his knee scoped Monday at the Cleveland Clinic, and the Browns have not yet provided an update on his availability for the beginning of camp in three weeks.

On June 11, Jurevicius revealed that he had three knee surgeries in the offseason - one to clean up an old knee injury and two to treat a staph infection.

At the time, he told the Cleveland Plain Dealer that he would be ready for camp, but that was before this latest complication.

Jurevicius originally injured his knee in a collision with Tampa Bay running back Mike Alstott during a game in 2003.

He was the Browns' third-leading receiver last season - his second in Cleveland - with 50 catches for 614 yards and three touchdowns.
