In a twist of fate, Cleveland Browns’ left tackle Jedrick Wills made a triumphant return to the practice field on Wednesday, but he disclosed afterward that he won’t be starting just yet, as he continues his comeback journey from an MCL injury sustained on November 5th. Despite his hard-fought practice appearance, he sat out Thursday’s session, leading many to believe that Wills is unlikely to suit up for the game.
Who’s Next Up on the Depth Chart?
With Wills sidelined, the big question buzzing around is: Who will anchor the left tackle position? The word around the Dawg Pound points to either Jack Conklin or James Hudson stepping into the breech. Conklin, the seasoned right tackle, is battling his own knee injury woes, having been limited in practice for the second consecutive day. It looms as a potential showdown at practice—a battle for the coveted left tackle spot, leaving fans on edge.
Walking Wounded or Secret Weapons?
The Browns’ injury report reads like a M*A*S*H unit. It’s packed with marquee names cautiously listed as “limited participants.”
- David Bell – the wide receiver with a quad strain
- Jordan Hicks – a linebacker nursing a calf issue
- Maurice Hurst – defensive tackle, managing a hamstring problem
- Quinton Jefferson – another defensive tackle, grappling with an Achilles strain
- Dalvin Tomlinson – defensive tackle, with a knee tweak
- Nathaniel Watson – linebacker, also battling a quad issue
These players are on the mend, hoping to dodge the medical tent and hit the field come game day.

As we draw nearer to game day, the Browns’ faithful are glued to the updates, eagerly awaiting to see who will rise to the occasion. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions, filled with highs, lows, and everything in between. Stay tuned, Brownies! The season is about to get even more heated!
