BEREA, OH – Finding a suitable replacement for future Hall of Famer Joe Thomas at left tackle has been the Browns biggest dilemma this offseason. Now, just days away from their season-opening showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers, it’s still a mystery.
Veteran Joel Bitonio took one for the team by moving to left tackle during the preseason and remains an option for filling the void. That could be counterintuitive though, considering he’s spent the first four years of his career at left guard. That’s obviously where he is most comfortable, which is why a move back to his natural position is also in play ahead of Sunday.
