(FFChamps) Peyton Hillis said he would be surprised if he is not 100 percent healthy for Sunday's outing at Pittsburgh, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Analysis: Hillis added that he feels great right now, and his thigh injury is not an issue. He will be looking to score in his sixth straight game tomorrow.

Also a quote from the local reporter (no link, sorry): Cleveland Browns RB Peyton Hillis (thigh) said he would be surprised if he was not close to 100 percent for the team's Week 6 game, reports Mary Kay Cabot, of The Cleveland Plain Dealer.

If needed, looks like he will be getting the touches today. Could be a good checkdown option for Colt.

Was this a thigh bruise or strain? I thought I read something about it being a bruise.

It's a bruise, but from what I understand he had the same injury in college, and there was some calcification of the bone.

Thanks. Its hard to believe that a bruise would be nagging like this if it weren't for some previous injury (calcification). Seems like a tough SOB that will play through it - hope it doesn't hamper his performance the rest of the way.
