Browns DE Alex Wright said it’s no surprise that the opportunity to start opposite of DE Myles Garrett is up for grabs, as DL coach Jacques Cesaire told the unit this off-season.
“It’s not an elephant in the room,” Wright said, via Cleveland.com. “Everybody knows and Jacques, he set it out. You take it on the chin; you acknowledge it and you pretty much soul search. That’s what I do. I mean obviously they’re looking for the person that’s next to Myles who’s going to be on the other side. And if you don’t come in and do what you got to do, it won’t be you. You either accept the challenge or you shy away from it. And I don’t plan on shying away from anything. I haven’t shied away from a thing in my life.”
Wright added that he tried to put off surgery and didn’t want to end his potential breakout season prematurely.
