• Cardinals' Jedrick Wills: Snagged off Buffalo's PS by Arizona

  Rotowire Oct 6, 2026

  The Cardinals signed Wills off the Bills' practice squad to the active roster Tuesday. The Cardinals needed to fortify their depth at left tackle after Paris Johnson suffered a season-ending torn left biceps injury in Week 4 against the Giants. Per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site, rookie seventh-rounder Jayden Williams will get the first crack at starting duties at left tackle in Johnson's absence, but Wills and second-year reserve Josh Fryar will provide depth at the position. Wills has stared in 57 regular-season games since entering the NFL in 2020 as a first-round selection of the Browns, though he has not seen regular-season action since 2024.

  Wills (knee) will compete for Chicago's starting left tackle role, Mike Moraitis of Sports Illustrated reports. Wills is competing with both Braxton Jones and Ozzy Trapilo (knee) for the starting job. Wills -- who has moved past the knee issues he's dealt with in the past and is participating in training camp -- signed a one-year contract with the Bears back in March after having spent the last five years in Cleveland.

• Bears' Jedrick Wills: Gets deal from Chicago

  Rotowire Mar 11, 2026

  The Bears agreed to terms with Wills (knee) on a one-year contract Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Following back-to-back injury-ruined seasons in 2023 and 2024, Wills sat out the 2025 campaign to let his knees heal. He's still just 26 years old and was the No. 10 overall pick in the 2020 Draft by the Browns. Wills gives the Bears a risk-free flyer at left tackle after Ozzy Trapilo suffered a torn patellar tendon in the wild-card win over the Packers in January.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Placed on injured reserve

  Rotowire Dec 7, 2024

  The Browns placed Wills (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Wills had been sidelined for the Browns' last three games due to a knee injury, and he had already been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Steelers. Wills will now be forced to miss at least the next four games, so he could be activated off IR ahead of the Browns' regular-season finale against the Ravens on Sunday, Jan. 5. Germain Ifedi will remain as the Browns' starting left tackle due to Wills' absence.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Won't play Week 8

  Rotowire Oct 25, 2024

  Wills (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Wills was unable to practice all week and will be held out for a fifth straight game. Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Friday that Wills' injury is to the same knee that was surgically repaired last year, per Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Could return in Week 5

  Rotowire Oct 4, 2024

  Wills (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Commanders, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to limited practices both Thursday and Friday, so it appears he could be trending toward playing in Week 5. The 2020 first-round pick has appeared in just one game this year after sustaining a season-ending knee injury in 2023, and if he's unable to suit up Sunday, expect Dawand Jones or Germain Ifedi to serve as the Browns' top left tackle.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Ruled out for Week 4

  Rotowire Sep 27, 2024

  Wills (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus Las Vegas, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills, the Browns' left tackle, missed the first two games of the season with a knee injury, returned for Week 3 against the Giants, and played 40 snaps before getting hurt again. He underwent an MRI this week, but the results of it aren't yet known. Cleveland's offensive line has been totally decimated by injuries. After Wills went out last week, star LG Joel Bitonio (knee) kicked over to left tackle due to No. 3 tackle James Hudson (shoulder) already being hurt. Veteran tackle Jack Conklin (shoulder) has also been ruled out for Week 4. The Browns were forced to sign veteran Germain Ifedi this week.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Likely to make 2024 debut Sunday

  Rotowire Sep 22, 2024

  Wills (knee) is listed as questionable but is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Giants, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Wills has been working his way back from the MCL sprain that ended his 2023 season early and kept him out of the first two contests of the current campaign. If he's able to suit up Sunday as expected, his addition would be a major boost to a Browns offensive line that has allowed eight sacks through two weeks.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Questionable for Sunday

  Rotowire Sep 20, 2024

  Wills (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Giants, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. It's a big step forward for Wills, who sat out the first two weeks of the new season as he continues to recover from knee surgery. If Cleveland ultimately errs on the side of caution with him in Week 3, James Hudson would probably start at left tackle.

  Rotowire Sep 12, 2024

  Wills (knee) logged a limited practice Thursday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

However, a clearer picture of his status for Week 2 won't come until Friday, when the Browns release their next injury report.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Unable to practice Wednesday

  Rotowire Sep 11, 2024

  Wills (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

He has two more chances to upgrade his activity level before receiving an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Wills will start at left tackle when healthy, but until then that role may continue to fall to James Hudson.

  Wills (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Cowboys, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills told reporters Wednesday that he wouldn't be starting during Sunday's contest, so this news comes as no surprise.

  Rotowire Sep 5, 2024

  Wills (knee) did not practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills logged a limited practice Wednesday but took a step backward Thursday.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Nearing return

  Rotowire Sep 2, 2024

  Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Wills (knee) is "getting close" to returning to the field, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. Despite Stefanski's positive comments, the 25-year-old offensive tackle sat out Monday's practice. His status for Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Cowboys is still up in the air, and if Wills is unable to suit up, expect James Hudson (ankle) or Jack Conklin to protect Deshaun Watson's blindside.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Placed on PUP list

  Rotowire Jul 24, 2024

  Wills (knee) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Browns on Wednesday. Wills underwent knee surgery in December, and he'll be forced to open training camp on the sidelines as a result. The offensive lineman is geared up to be Cleveland's starting left tackle in 2024 and is eligible to return to practice and play at any point during the preseason.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Option picked up by Cleveland

  Rotowire Mar 8, 2024

  The Browns converted Wills' (knee) fifth-year option Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. The 2020 first-round pick missed over half of the Browns' 2023 campaign with a knee issue, but the team has still decided to pick up his fifth-year option. Wills has started all 53 games he's appeared in for Cleveland since entering the league, so he's expected to retain that role in 2024 (barring any injury setbacks). This move also clears roughly $10.44 million in cap space for the Browns.

  Rotowire Dec 12, 2023

  Wills (knee) underwent season-ending arthroscopic surgery on Tuesday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports. Wills was placed on injured reserve back in November after suffering a high-grade MCL sprain, a low-grade PCL sprain and bone bruises Week 9, and it's now confirmed that he will remain on IR for the duration of the 2023 campaign. Cleveland's offensive line already lost fellow starting tackle Jack Conklin (knee) back in Week 1, while rookie replacement Dawand Jones (knee) just suffered a season-ending injury of his own during Sunday's win over the Jaguars.

• Browns' Jedrick Wills: Lands on IR

  Rotowire Nov 7, 2023

  Wills (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Wills was able to return to the Browns' Week 9 contest after dealing with a knee issue earlier in the game, but he was later carted off the field with a second knee injury after getting rolled up on by Kareem Hunt. James Hudson projects to step into Wills' spot on Cleveland's offensive line, and the team will be without both of its starting tackles going forward.
