Browns sign punter Reggie Hodges, starter Dave Zastudil (knee) questionable for Monday night

Last update: November 15, 2009 - 2:23 PM

CLEVELAND - The Cleveland Browns signed free agent punter Reggie Hodges in case Dave Zastudil can't kick in Monday night's game against Baltimore.

Zastudil has been bothered by a sore right knee and was limited in practice all week. The team listed him as questionable — a 50 percent chance of playing — on the injury report.

The Browns worked out several punters on Friday and decided to sign Hodges, who appeared in four games this season for Tennessee. Hodges has also played for St. Louis, Philadelphia and the New York Jets. He was waived by the Titans on Oct. 27.

Zastudil, who has had knee soreness all season, has been one of the few bright spots for the Browns (1-7). His 25 punts inside the 20 is best in the NFL.
