CLEVELAND -- The Detroit Lions have activated All Pro wide receiver Calvin Johnson and expect Johnson to start today vs. the Browns.
Johnson missed last week's loss at Green Bay with a knee injury and was limited in practice this week. The Lions scored 9 points last week; they're averaging 30 points per game with him in the lineup.
Johnson was on the field at First Energy Stadium three hours before kickoff Sunday working to loosen up and presumably to show the Lions coaches and medical staff he was healthy enough for what should be an entertaining battle with Browns rising star cornerback Joe Haden.
This season, Johnson has 21 catches for 312 yards and four touchdowns. Johnson is tied for the Lions record with 34 career 100-yard receiving games.
