BEREA -- Cleveland Browns center LeCharles Bentley has decided against another surgery on his injured left knee -- for now.

That doesn't mean he'll be back on the field this season.

Bentley's agent Jonathan Feinsod said a third operation on his left patellar tendon that had been scheduled for Tuesday was canceled.

Bentley will continue to rehab the knee over the next three to four weeks, general manager Phil Savage said Tuesday.

"It's probably a good sign that he's not having the surgery," Savage said. "That shows there's probably some progress with his knee."

Risky, risky move. I mean, I hope Savage is right and this means the knee is improving.

But if he winds up needing surgery anyway, this is just an unecessary delay. The sooner Cleveland gets Bentley back, the better.
