Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski addressed the situation regarding left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr., who recently stated he made a 'business decision' to sit out a game due to a knee injury. Stefanski clarified that Wills' choice of words was unfortunate, emphasizing that the player did not feel capable of performing at full strength.
Wills, who has lost his starting position to Dawand Jones, expressed surprise at being benched. Despite his comments, Stefanski confirmed that Wills' status as a backup tackle remains unchanged. The coach acknowledged the challenges Wills has faced in recovering from surgery on his knee.
