The wife of Cleveland Browns offensive lineman Wyatt Teller fired back after fans criticized her outfit in a video posted to the team’s social media feed.
The Browns posted a video celebrating Teller’s nomination as the team’s Salute to Service nominee for his dedication to supporting veterans and service members. His wife, Carly, surprised him at the facility, as well as his two children. Teller’s dad served as a reserve for both the Marines and US Army, per a press release from the Browns.
“It’s a special moment,” Teller said. “In a way, I feel like I’m honoring my dad and everything he stood for. I’m proud to represent the Browns and to continue supporting the men and women who serve our country.”
It was a heartwarming behind-the-scenes video of a Browns player spending time with his family. However, some fans quickly shifted the conversation, taking aim at Carly Teller’s outfit choice.
“I’m sure you are a great person and lovely family. Next time you go to your husband’s workplace full of virile athletes, please wear a bra and not a see-through top,” a fan said. “Looks unprofessional and that’s not the place.”
Carly Teller had the perfect response.
“Next time you go to comment about my nipples on the internet, please don’t,” she responded. “Looks gross and that’s not the place.”
Wyatt Teller Wants to Remain in Cleveland
Teller was a popular name at the trade deadline. He’s a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro selection in the final year of his deal, which could have been an attractive trade piece for a contender.
However, Teller stayed put in Cleveland — where he intends to stay long term and bring a winning culture back to the Browns.
“I don’t want to tuck tail and leave because I feel like a couple years ago we were that close to being in the AFC Championship,” Teller said earlier this month. “That’s just mindboggling for any Cleveland Browns fan. Because it’s just been since the ’80s since we’ve done it. We used to do it consistently, so how can we bring that culture back that goes to the playoffs, that has a winning team, that it’s not the same old Cleveland Browns?
“And I feel like we were right there and then just kind of took a step back. But I’m not blind to the fact that we’re right there. And again, as bad as the season is viewed or perceived, we’re like two or three plays away from a lot different season. Now how can we be more consistent and win, and that’s what good teams do late.”
Browns Expected to Re-Sign Wyatt Teller
An extension for Teller with the Browns does not appear imminent. But it is likely something the team will discuss this offseason, given the uncertainty around the future of their offensive line.
Veteran guard Joel Bitonio, now 34, is in the final year of his contract and could retire after a dozen seasons in Cleveland. Center Ethan Pocic is also playing on an expiring deal, and both tackle spots have been marked by inconsistency, adding to the Browns’ long-term uncertainty up front.
With Teller remaining in Cleveland at the trade deadline, a new deal could be on the horizon for the three-time Pro Bowler, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic.
“Given the state of the offensive line, getting a new deal done for Wyatt Teller figures to be a priority either later this season or in early 2026,” Jackson reported earlier this month.
Teller and the Browns will look to turn things around on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens in front of a home crowd.
Buccaneers Get Much-Needed Boost as Key Players Return Ahead of Critical Bills Matchup
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are gearing up for a pivotal Week 11 clash against the Buffalo Bills, and despite facing a challenging stretch of games, there’s a glimmer of hope on the horizon. Sitting at a solid 6-3, the Bucs have had their fair share of ups and downs in recent weeks, having lost two of their last three contests. The upcoming games, including a tough matchup against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12, could determine whether Tampa Bay stays firmly in the playoff hunt. As they prepare for these critical showdowns, the team received a pleasant surprise on their injury report Wednesday, offering a much-needed spark.
Bucky Irving’s Return: A Welcome Sight
The biggest news from Wednesday’s practice came with the return of running back Bucky Irving. Irving, who has been sidelined since Week 4, was seen participating in practice for the first time in nearly two months. Though it’s still uncertain whether he’ll be ready to suit up against the Bills, the fact that he’s ramping up his participation is a positive sign for the Bucs. Irving has been a key contributor to Tampa Bay's offense this season, and having him back could provide a much-needed boost to the running game, which has been inconsistent in recent weeks.
Chris Godwin’s Progress: Optimism for the Future
Adding to the optimism was the news regarding wide receiver Chris Godwin. After being sidelined since Week 5 with a fibula injury—on the same leg where he suffered a brutal ankle dislocation last season—Godwin was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. This marks the first time since his injury that Godwin has been back on the field, and it’s a significant step forward in his recovery process. Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles had previously mentioned that Godwin had been running, but his participation in practice was still uncertain. Now, it’s clear that Godwin is getting closer to a return.
Though it’s still unclear if Godwin will be ready for this weekend’s game against Buffalo, his presence at practice is a good omen. The team has understandably been cautious with his return, given the severity of his previous injury. With Tampa Bay’s offense struggling to find consistency at times this season, Godwin's return would provide a much-needed weapon for quarterback Baker Mayfield. The 27-year-old has been one of the most reliable wideouts in the league and a favorite target for Mayfield when healthy. His return would not only help bolster the Bucs’ receiving corps but could also offer a psychological boost as the team fights for playoff positioning.
A Critical Stretch Ahead
The Buccaneers are undoubtedly facing a tough road ahead, with games against the Bills, Rams, and other NFC contenders on the docket. The return of Irving and Godwin—two key cogs in their offensive machine—could be the difference between a successful playoff run and another disappointing season. Both players are instrumental to the team’s offense, and the coaching staff will likely exercise caution to ensure they are fully ready before rushing them back into action.
While it’s unclear whether either player will suit up against Buffalo, the mere fact that they are progressing is a positive development. If they can both return to form, the Bucs’ playoff hopes will remain very much alive. For now, Tampa Bay fans can take solace in the fact that their team is getting healthier at the right time—and that’s a ray of hope in a season that could go either way.
As the Week 11 matchup against the Bills approaches, the Buccaneers will have their fingers crossed that the reinforcements are ready to make their impact. With a playoff spot on the line, Irving and Godwin could play a major role in determining the outcome of Tampa Bay’s season.
