New-look Browns offensive line faces same old Steelers defensive front
The Browns' new-look offensive line faces the challenge of a very familiar Steelers defensive line in their Thursday Night Football showdown.
The Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns have faced each other multiple times before. However, this encounter will feature a new look for both sides. While the Steelers' defensive front remains the same, the Browns' offensive line has undergone changes. Right tackle Tytus Howard noted that the Steelers' style of play remains consistent, with the primary difference being T.J.
Watt's potential repositioning. For rookie left tackle Spencer Fano, the biggest challenge will be facing the Steelers' formidable trio of edge rushers: Alex Highsmith, Nick Herbig, and T.J. Watt. Fano has faced several top defensive players already this season, but he still anticipates facing a tough challenge. The Browns' offensive line will also face increased pressure if center Elgton Jenkins, who sustained a concussion, is unable to play. In that case, Luke Wypler and rookie Parker Brailsford will be the starters.
