Browns place Wyatt Teller on IR, expect Myles Garrett to play

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns placed right guard Wyatt Teller on injured reserve Wednesday, sidelining him for at least the next four games.

Teller injured his knee in the third quarter of Cleveland's loss to the New York Giants on Sunday, and coach Kevin Stefanski had said Monday that Teller would miss "multiple weeks."

A three-time Pro Bowl selection, Teller had missed only three games over the previous three seasons combined. Third-round pick Zak Zinter, who filled in for Teller against the Giants, is expected to start at right guard against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.

Teller's injury was one of several along the offensive line that Cleveland faced Sunday, forcing a mass shuffling across the unit. The Browns lost Jedrick Wills Jr. (knee) and James Hudson III (shoulder) to injuries, and Dawand Jones was benched after halftime because of a knee injury, according to Stefanski, before coming back into the game after Hudson went down.

The Browns signed offensive tackle Germain Ifedi to their active roster from the practice squad Wednesday and added two more tackles, Sebastian Gutierrez and Ricky Lee III, to the practice squad.

Stefanski also said Wednesday that he doesn't anticipate that defensive end Myles Garrett will miss the Raiders game, despite dealing with injuries to his feet, Achilles and thigh.
