The Cleveland Browns faced the Pittsburgh Steelers with Germain Ifedi stepping in as the fourth left tackle this season due to injuries. Ifedi's promotion follows Dawand Jones' leg injury, leaving him to protect quarterback Jameis Winston's blindside.

Jedrick Wills Jr. was expected to start but was sidelined with a persistent knee issue. Coach Kevin Stefanski addressed Wills' controversial comments about sitting out a game, calling them a 'poor choice of words.' Meanwhile, the Steelers were missing key player Alex Highsmith due to an ankle injury.

The Cleveland Browns are facing significant injury challenges ahead of their Week 12 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, particularly on the offensive line. With starting left tackle Dawand Jones out for the season due to a fractured ankle, the team will also miss Jedrick Wills Jr. due to a knee injury.

Wills, who has struggled this season, will not have the chance to improve his performance against Pittsburgh. The Browns are expected to rely on veteran Germain Ifedi as a replacement, while also having Michael Dunn and Geron Christian available if needed. On a positive note, star defensive end Myles Garrett is set to play despite missing practice earlier in the week.

The Cleveland Browns are facing significant challenges on their offensive line as injuries mount. Newly appointed starting left tackle Dawand Jones has been placed on injured reserve due to a broken ankle, while former starter Jedrick Wills has been ruled out for the upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed that Wills, who has struggled with injuries this season, attempted to practice but ultimately was unable to play. Tight end Geoff Swaim is also out due to concussion protocol. Meanwhile, the Steelers will be without cornerback Cory Trice and linebacker Alex Highsmith.

The Cleveland Browns are gearing up for their Week 12 clash against the Pittsburgh Steelers, making significant roster changes. Offensive tackle Dawand Jones has been placed on injured reserve due to a season-ending leg injury sustained in a recent loss to the New Orleans Saints.

In a corresponding move, the Browns have signed tackle Geron Christian from the Los Angeles Rams' practice squad. This marks Christian's second stint with Cleveland.

Jones, who had a disappointing season with a Pro Football Focus grade of 46.3, still holds potential for the future, especially with upcoming changes in the offensive line.
