Unsurprisingly, we have yet another story about the cursed 2011 season of Peyton Hillis. Unsurprisingly, it’s more bad news.

The Browns have downgraded Hillis from “questionable” to “out” on their injury report. He won’t play Sunday at Houston.

Hillis wasn’t expected to play, as he’s been nursing a hamstring injury that could keep him out a couple weeks.

The larger issue for the Browns and Hillis going forward is that it sounds like his teammates don’t particularly want him around anymore, whether he’s healthy or not.

For this week, however, that question is moot. Hillis’s hamstring is a no-go.
