CLE Luke Wypler
NFL player. Position: C. Team: CLE.
Quick Facts
- Position: Center (C)
- Team: CLE (Cleveland Browns)
- Bye week (2026): 11
- Draft: 2023 Round 6 (developmental prospect)
2026 Outlook
Center prospect on the hot seat due to new competition. Got opportunity late 2025 after Ethan Pocic's season-ending Achilles injury, played 234 snaps down the stretch. Browns signed veteran Elgton Jenkins in free agency (94 NFL starts, four positions), and drafted Parker Brailsford Round 5 out of Alabama with Tyler Linderbaum-like traits. Wypler is facing a three-way competition and could drop to backup or third string if he doesn't excel in training camp. Originally drafted as developmental, still hasn't proven he's the franchise center going forward. (per 2026 Browns offseason: Veterans on the hot seat after the NFL draft)

Center in three-way competition with Elgton Jenkins (likely starter) and Parker Brailsford (rookie). Needs strong training camp to avoid falling to bench.
