Can the Browns’ offensive line be fixed? Does it need fixing?

The Cleveland Browns’ recent 17-12 loss to the New York Jets exposed critical vulnerabilities in their offensive line, which surrendered eight sacks in a game that should have been a guaranteed win. The Browns, who were leading the division before the setback, now sit at 3-2-0 after a performance that saw their quarterback, Deshaun Watson, repeatedly under pressure.

Five of those sacks were directly attributed to the offensive line, with rookie left tackle Spencer Fano and rookie right guard Austin Barber—who replaced the injured Tevon Jenkins—facing early scrutiny. The Jets’ defense, known for its offensive struggles, exploited gaps in Cleveland’s protection, particularly in the second quarter, where unblocked defenders and poor pass protection led to multiple turnovers in the pocket.
