Browns face tricky salary cap fallout after Wyatt Teller move

The Cleveland Browns' offensive line woes continue to be a major talking point. Most of their leaders in snaps played will either test free agency or retire, including star right guard Wyatt Teller, who just announced he will be leaving the team.

Teller hoped to stay in Cleveland for at least another couple of years. However, he should be in high demand at a position where there won't be many feasible options in free agency, so it makes sense for him to pursue a more lucrative deal elsewhere.

The Browns will likely designate Teller as a post-June 1 cut to spread his cap hit over the next couple of years, and avoid a "poison pill clause" that's baked into his contract, as explained by Browns insider Spencer German.
