Browns Face Injury Challenges and Offensive Line Changes Ahead of Ravens Matchup, Excluding Two Starters

The Cleveland Browns are heading into Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens with yet another new starting offensive line. This ongoing reshuffling, coupled with changes at quarterback and play caller, is not ideal for an offense that has struggled. The final injury report will be released soon, but the Browns have already confirmed that four players, including two starters, will miss the game.

Offensive tackle Jedrick Wills will not participate, having missed all three practices this week due to the same knee injury that sidelined him last season. Dawand Jones, who was benched at right tackle in favor of Jack Conklin, is expected to start at left tackle.

On a more positive note, Wyatt Teller is listed as questionable and could be activated from injured reserve in time for Sunday’s game.

Linebacker Jordan Hicks will also be absent as he continues to deal with lingering injuries from recent weeks. Additionally, running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) and safety Ronnie Hickman (ankle) will miss the matchup.

Fortunately for the Browns, both Nick Chubb and Juan Thornhill returned last week from injuries, filling the same positions as Ford and Hickman.
