Browns' Jedrick Wills Jr. suffers leg injury in third quarter, returns to game

CLEVELAND − Jedrick Wills ran into the locker room with just under four minutes remaining in the third quarter of Thursday night's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Wills appeared to have his left ankle rolled up on during a fourth-down run by Kareem Hunt. He was down for a few minutes before going to medical tent.

After a short time in there, Wills jogged into the locker room. He returned to the bench after Cade York's 34-yard field goal capped the drive with 2:34 left in the third quarter.

Wills returned on the next drive.
