A few weeks away from NFL free agency, and the Cleveland Browns already know one player who won't be coming back next season.
Three-time Pro Bowl guard Wyatt Teller announced his impending departure from the team with a heartfelt social media message to Browns fans, thanking them for his seven seasons with the team.
"I wish things were different and this is hard to put into words," Teller wrote on Instagram. "When Buffalo traded me to Cleveland seven years ago, I never could have imagined how much this city would mean to me. Ultimately, the Browns took a chance on me that changed the trajectory of my life forever.
"… I've made friendships and connections on and off the field that will last far beyond the game of football. Our family is so blessed and grateful for everyone in Northeast Ohio who has supported and loved us these past seven years. While we are excited and look forward to what the future holds, Cleveland will always have a special place in our hearts. As always…Go Browns!"
Teller has been a staple on Cleveland's offensive line since 2019. He's started 94 of his 101 appearances with the Browns, allowing 24 sacks, 167 pressures, 125 hurries, and 18 QB hits across 6,319 offensive snaps.
His absence will certainly be felt next season - and one of the players most affected by Teller's departure, quarterback Shedeur Sanders, took to social media to let Teller know exactly how he feels about him leaving.
":( gonna miss you bro," Sanders responded to Teller's announcement.
Sanders will likely be locked in a QB battle this offseason with Deshaun Watson and potentially a rookie signal-caller, should Cleveland pick one with its 10 2026 draft picks.
But Sanders wasn't the only Browns player to wish Teller farewell.
"Love you brotha," 2026 sack champion Myles Garrett replied.
"All love brother," defensive tackle Shelby Harris posted.
"We're going to miss you in cle buddy! Where are you going to be able to duck hunt!!😢" Browns legend Joe Thomas responded.
