Jedrick Wills Jr. - Page 9 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Active Thursday Wills (shin) is active for Thursday's contest against the Bengals, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

Impact Wills was forced out of Cleveland's loss to Baltimore in Week 1 due to a shin injury, but he's already recovered enough to suit up for Thursday Night Football. The rookie first-round pick will start at left tackle against Cincinnati.

Still questionable Thursday Wills (shin) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Cincinnati, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Wills suffered the injury in Sunday's game against the Ravens and failed to return in the second half. The X-ray's on the Alabama product's knee returned negative, however, so there's doubt on his status for Thursday. JC Tretter (knee), Jack Conklin (ankle/finger) and Jedrick Wills (shin) also are dealing with injurys, so it's unclear how the offensive line will look for Thursday's contest.

Impact Wills left early in his NFL debut Sunday in the Browns' 38-6 loss to the Ravens, but it's a good sign that there's no structural damage. The rookie first-rounder is still sore, however, so Kendall Lamm is on standby in case Wills can't play Thursday.

Suffers injury in first contest Wills suffered a leg injury in the team's Week 1 contest against the Bengals, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wills exited late in the contest and with the game out of hand, he will have his eye on a return for the team's Week 2 matchup against the Bengals on Thursday. If Wills was forced to miss that game, Kendall Lamm will likely take over at left tackle.

Set to start at left tackle Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski is committed to starting Wills at left tackle for the season opener against the Ravens, Marla Ridenour of the Akron-Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Stefanski reinforced his decision to transition Wills from the right side to the left despite what has been a difficult transition. Offensive line coach Bill Callahan alluded to the difficulty when he said "rookies across the league are behind the curve" because the virtual offseason training program and the cancellation of preseason games due to the pandemic.

Makes progress in transition Wills is making progress in his transition from right to left tackle, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Wills, the 10th overall pick in the 2020 draft, was a right tackle at the University of Alabama, but the Browns drafted him to play left tackle. "He started out a little slow early on just getting the tempo and the timing of the pass rushes, but he's getting better every day," offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said of Wills. "That's what we're looking for is for that arrow to continue to trend up. We knew we were going to have some growing pains moving him from right to left, but at the same point we know he has the ability to get it done." Wells is getting top-notch preparation in practice, lining up against defensive ends Olivier Vernon and Myles Garrett. That has given Wells experience against elite pass-rushers and knowledge of how to combat certain moves.
