What happened: Cleveland Browns linebacker Quincy Williams downplayed his Thursday absence on Friday and confirmed he is ready for Sunday's road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Listed as questionable on the injury report with a neck issue, the defender returned to practice Friday after sitting out the previous day's session.

Why it matters: Having Williams available keeps the starting linebacker unit intact for a Cleveland defense that recently overhauled its on-field approach and enters the weekend holding the No. 4 seed. A victory over the Titans would push the Browns to 5-2 and build on their 13-10 win on Oct. 18.

By the numbers: Cleveland enters Sunday at 4-2 (No. 4 seed) following a 13-10 victory on Oct. 18, while Tennessee sits at 1-5 (No. 14 seed) after a 26-20 win on the same day.

What to watch: The Browns visit the Titans on Sunday as Cleveland aims to move to 5-2 and Tennessee seeks consecutive victories.
