CLEVELAND (AP) -Packers starting left tackle Chad Clifton will not play against Cleveland because of an injured ankle.

Clifton missed two games earlier this season with the injury. He'll be replaced in the starting lineup Sunday by rookie T.J. Lang. He will try to protect Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has already been sacked a league-high 25 times.

Green Bay is also without center Jason Spitz, who missed last week's game with back spasms. Scott Wells is starting for Jason Spitz.

The Browns will be without tight ends Steve Heiden (knee) and Robert Royal (hamstring, finger). Greg Estandia will start for Royal.

Browns cornerback Eric Wright, who walked away relatively uninjured after flipping his car on Friday, was listed as active and in Cleveland's starting lineup.
