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 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.

Placed on injured reserve
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 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.
Remaining sidelined for Week 14
Wills (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Wills will miss his fourth straight game due to a lingering knee injury, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Chiefs on Sunday, Dec. 15. Germain Ifedi will continue to start at left tackle due to Wills' injury.
Remains out for Week 13
Wills (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Denver, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. The 2020 first-round pick will miss a third straight game due to a knee injury that has lingered all season. Germain Ifedi started at left tackle against the Steelers in Week 12 and is likely to do so again Monday due to Wills' injury.
Staying sidelined
Wills (knee) will not play Thursday against the Steelers, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills has dealt with a knee issue throughout the season and also missed the team's Week 11 loss to the Saints. In his absence, Germain Ifedi will likely draw the start at left tackle.
Won't play Week 11
Wills (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Wills didn't initially have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game, but he will be kept out due to a lingering knee injury, per Oyefusi. Dawand Jones will continue to start at left tackle while Wills is sidelined.
Returning to action Week 9
Wills (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Wills didn't play Week 8 due to a knee injury, but he logged an LP/LP/FP progression in practice this week to set up his return to action Sunday. He's logged every offensive snap in three of the four games for which he's been able to suit up this season.
Won't play Week 8
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' knee injury is the same knee that was surgically repaired last year, per Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. Wills will look to return to practice ahead of the Browns' Week 9 contest against the Chargers on Nov. 3.
Ready to return
Wills (knee) is active Week 5 against the Commanders. Wills suffered another knee injury in Week 3 and was subsequently held out of the following game, but after logging a pair of limited practices this week, he'll return to fill his role as the starting left tackle.
Could return in Week 5
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.
