Burleson (hamstring) will play in Thursday's preseason finale, the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Burleson returned to practice Monday after missing the entire preseason thus far due to a hamstring injury. As the Browns still await a ruling on Josh Gordon's appeal of a season-long suspension, the team will hope to get Burleson up to speed as quick as possible with the regular season approaching.
