Browns' Injured Linemen: Returning Stars or Depth?

But hold up, two familiar faces from last year, left tackled to Juan Jones and center Luke Weibler. Stay under contract through 2026 and might, slide right back in. Both guys started multiple games for the Browns last season, but injuries knocked them out. Weibler played all 17 games, started five, then tore his knee in the finale against Cincinnati. Jones got hit early in week three versus the Packers with a season ending LCL tear and hamstring issue. His third major injury in three NFL years. These Ohio State products could plug key holes at left tackled and center, spots where the Browns lack clear starters right now. They bring experience as spot guys, solid depth, or even push rookies in this month's draft. Head coach Todd Munkin sounded optimistic at the league meetings in Phoenix, saying he's hopeful to see Jones and Weibler back by the end of off season.
