Good to go Wright (quadriceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Wright missed the Browns' Week 13 loss to the 49ers with a quadriceps injury, but three practices capped off with a full session Friday were enough to expunge injury designation for Sunday's contest. The return of the starting defensive end opposite Myles Garrett is a huge boon for the Browns' defensive line, as Garrett's high double-team rate nets the starter more opportunities to pursue the quarterback.

Jerome Ford questionable for Week 13 against the 49ers | Injury Report Brenden Bates, Adin Huntington and Alex Wright all out for Week 13

NOVEMBER 28, 2025 • CLEVELANDBROWNS.COM

Out for Week 13 Wright (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact After signing a three-year, $33 million extension last week, Wright will miss his second straight game with the injury. Cameron Thomas should again play increased defensive snaps against San Francisco after recording six tackles, including 1.0 sacks, against Las Vegas last Sunday.

Logs DNP on Wednesday Wright (quadriceps) is not practicing Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Wright was sidelined for the Browns' Week 12 win over the Raiders due to a quadriceps injury, and Wednesday's DNP suggest he's still dealing with the issue. The UAB product is one of Cleveland's top defensive linemen, having recorded 24 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and a forced fumble in nine appearances this season. He likely needs to practice in full either Thursday or Friday to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.

Impact The fourth-year pro from UAB logged consecutive DNPs to begin the Browns' week of practice due to a quadriceps injury, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined in Week 12. Wright has appeared in nine games for Cleveland this season, recording 24 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks. Expect Cameron Thomas to operate as the Browns' top reserve defensive end while Wright is out Sunday.

Browns, Wright agree to 3-year, $33 million contract extension

Defensive end Alex Wright has agreed to a three-year contract extension with the Cleveland Browns worth $33 million, including $21 million guaranteed

NOVEMBER 20, 2025 • Associated Press

Lands three-year, $33M extension Wright (quadriceps) agreed to a three-year, $33 million extension with the Browns on Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wright's contract includes $21 million guaranteed and is set to keep him in Cleveland through the end of the 2028 season. The 25-year-old rotational pass rusher is recovering from a quadriceps injury, which kept him sidelined for a second consecutive practice Thursday, but the 2-8 Browns are focused on the future with this deal. Wright ranks third on the team with 3.0 sacks among his nine tackles for loss in nine games this season.

Impact Wright was sidelined in Week 11 versus the Ravens with a quad injury he suffered in Week 10 against the Jets, and now his status for Week 12 is up in the air. If he can't get back to practice Thursday or Friday, it's not likely he'll have any chance to play Sunday at Las Vegas.
