Browns rookie cornerback Charles Gaines will be inactive for Sunday's 1 p.m. season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers because his girlfriend recently went into labor, a team spokesman said.
Pierre Desir will start in place of Gaines. Backup safety Jordan Poyer will start at the other cornerback spot with Tramon Williams out with a concussion.
Wide receiver Travis Benjamin (ankle), inside linebacker Karlos Dansby (toe), kickoff returner Raheem Mostert (ankle), left tackle Joe Thomas (knee) and cornerback K'Waun Williams (shoulder) will be active despite entering Sunday listed as questionable.
Veteran wide receiver Dwayne Bowe will be inactive for the ninth time this season and a healthy scratch for the eighth.
