Peyton Hillis took to Twitter on Thursday night to ensure Browns fans he's here to stay.

Cleveland's hard-running back batted away speculation that his inability to play against the Miami Dolphins in Week 3 because of strep throat was actually motivated by concerns over slow contract negotiations with the team.
