The Cleveland Browns may get linebacker Karlos Dansby back much sooner than expected.

It was originally feared that Dansby would miss a month with a knee ailment, but so far he's only been sidelined for one game.
The Browns are in the thick of the playoff race in the AFC North, and getting one of their best defenders back will be key to a playoff push.
