Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) - Cleveland Browns running back Trent Richardson is active for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles after missing the entire preseason recovering from knee surgery.

Richardson, the third overall pick in April's draft, underwent an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee in early August, but was able to practice on a limited basis leading up to the season opener.

The Browns will be without starting linebacker James-Michael Johnson because of a rib injury.
