Browns Optimistic Jedrick Wills Can Play LT
5 years agoAccording to Cleveland Plain Dealer beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot, the Cleveland Browns are "very confident" that rookie Jedrick Wills will be ready to start at left tackle by the beginning of the season. Wills, the No. 10 overall pick, exclusively lined up at right tackle throughout his college career at Alabama but the Browns and Wills are confident that he has enough time to learn the position and make the change. He will also be aided in his journey by Bill Callahan, one of the most well-regarded offensive line coaches in the league. Cabot went on to say that the Browns would probably shift veteran right tackle Jack Conklin to the left side in a pinch if Wills is not ready by Week 1 but she and the team believe that it is unlikely they will need to resort to that option. Wills and Conklin are key pieces on what will be a much-improved offensive line for Cleveland in 2020.
