The Browns face a season-defining O-line shakeup after Dawand Jones’ season-ending knee surgery in Week 3. Jones’s injury adds to a troubling knee history and leaves Cleveland looking for reliable, affordable depth as Conklin battles injuries and a veteran-packed line ages. Cornelius Lucas steps in as the lead swing tackle while rookie KT Leveston adds depth. With Bitonio, Teller and Pocic all free agents soon, Cleveland must weigh long-term restructuring against short-term continuity. The search for younger, cheaper linemen starts now.
