Jedrick Wills joins Geoff Swaim as out for Browns vs Steelers

The Cleveland Browns are getting OT Germain Ifedi (pictured) ready to go for Thursday Night Football against their AFC North rival Pittsburgh Steelers. OT Dawand Jones was ruled out for the season, even if he is still fighting with local media via social media, which led to the return of OT Geron Christian.

HC Kevin Stefanski was hopeful that Jedrick Wills would be able to play but he was limited in practice on Tuesday.

Wednesday afternoon the team announced that Wills would join TE Geoff Swaim (concussion) as out for Thursday Night Football versus the Steelers. Wills’ knee injury continues to be a concern leading to OT Germain Ifedi likely starting:

With an elite pass rush for Pittsburgh, Cleveland could try to slow the game down by running the ball and hope to not make mistakes. Ifedi will likely get help while veteran OT Jack Conklin is tasked with blocking TJ Watt most of the game.

We will get the final injury reports from both teams soon but the Steelers were mostly healthy and just resting players on Tuesday.
