Browns head coach Hue Jackson is "optimistic" that star wide receiver Terrelle Pryor and top cornerback Joe Haden will play Sunday against the Bengals.

Pryor, who is enjoying a breakout season, injured his hamstring last weekend and has yet to practice this week. But he said Wednesday that he might be able to go.

"I feel good,'' Pryor said, via cleveland.com. "I believe we have a great training staff, so I'm putting all my faith in them and God, obviously. He'll get me up and ready to go."

Pryor has 33 receptions for 413 yards and three touchdowns this season, while also adding 21 yards and a touchdown on the ground and 41 yards passing. Though Cleveland (0-6) has yet to win a game this season, the Browns have been close in all but one game.

The Browns may get another boost if Haden is ready to return. The corner has played in just four games this season while battling a groin issue. Haden has two interceptions this season, both against Joe Flacco and the Ravens.
