Browns have no update on injured defensive end Alex Wright

Summary

The Cleveland Browns have yet to provide an update on defensive end Alex Wright, who was carted off the field during practice earlier this week after suffering a lower leg injury. Head coach Todd Monken stated he did not have further information following the Browns' recent preseason game against the Buffalo Bills. Wright's injury raises concerns for the team's defense as he is expected to play a significant role in the upcoming season. In the meantime, Mike Hall Jr. has been tested at defensive end, a position he has not primarily played, to address depth issues. The Browns had already been exploring options for additional pass-rushing help before Wright's injury.
