The Philadelphia Eagles are set for the return of standout wide receiver A.J. Brown and stalwart right tackle Lane Johnson coming out of their bye week and heading into Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns.

DeVonta Smith is also likely to return but hadn't cleared the concussion protocol as of Wednesday, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia.

Brown has missed the past three games with a hamstring injury. Johnson and Smith both suffered concussions in the Week 3 win over the New Orleans Saints. Johnson said Wednesday he cleared the protocol.

All 52 players on the Eagles' active roster practiced Wednesday, per the report.

Brown had five catches for 119 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Green Bay Packers in Brazil.

Smith has 21 catches for 239 yards and a touchdown in his three starts.

The Eagles (2-2) host the scuffling Browns (1-4), who have lost three straight.
