© Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsSelected by the Bills in the fifth round of the 2018 draft out Virginia, Teller was traded to Cleveland in August of 2019 in a deal that didn't make a blip on the radar at the time. Teller played 557 snaps for the Browns last season, allowing a sack and 16 total pressures and playing at about a league-average level. Whatever happened in the 2020 offseason, it's clear that the light is officially on. Playing right guard, Teller has allowed no sacks, no quarterback hits, and just one quarterback hurry in 72 pass-blocking snaps this season, and he's a big reason the Browns were able to run all over the Bengals with Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt last Thursday night. And on this six-yard touchdown pass to Hunt, watch how Teller takes the 6-foot-3, 347-pound defensive tackle D.J. Reader to the ground. Teller has put together a fine combination of quickness, agility, awareness, and power. He'll be one to watch all season, especially as the Browns expand their right-handed boot-action passing plays.
Consider this "Swamp People" meets inside the trenches.
Cleveland Browns star offensive lineman Wyatt Teller went gator hunting with the Miami Dolphins' Zach Sieler.
After killing a huge beast, Teller took matters into his own hands in throwing the prey over his shoulders and carrying it home.
Teller legally hunted and killed the alligator through Clay Gully Outfitters in Lorida, Fl.

"We've had multiple players out there who have never shot a gun before," Sieler told the Palm Beach Post in September. "If you're looking for a real thrill, alligators are pretty intense. It's alligator season right now so we just killed two 10-footers and almost an 11-footer this morning. It's a good time."
Sieler, the Dolphin who lives in his RV, is an owner of Clay Gully Outfitters, the largest year-round, free-range gator hunting outfitter in Florida.
