Go Long Podcast

Wyatt Teller, America's lineman


Listen Later

There is nobody quite like Wyatt Teller on the line of scrimmage. He is 6 foot 4 inches, 315 pounds of whiskey-loving, alligator-hunting hell for defensive players.

The Cleveland Browns have had arguably the best rushing attack since 2020, and he’s a primary reason why.

Go Long readers may recall getting to know Teller in this story a few years back. With the 2024 season closing in — and hope building in Cleveland — this was a perfect chance to chat again with the gregarious Teller. Holy, he has many stories to share. Audio and video are both available above, and you can access all Go Long Podcasts on Apple, Spotify and YouTube.

This conversation was both entertaining and exceptionally insightful.

Inside…

* Teller has seen flashes of “absolute greatness” in Deshaun Watson. He explains why they’ve got faith in the QB.

* What happened between the Browns and Baker Mayfield? His theory will surprise you.

* His Buffalo Bills exit. He was shipped away. Why?

* Bill Callahan. The longtime offensive line coach is quite a hard ass. He helped elevate Teller’s game, but — wow — the man could be ruthless. (Callahan is off to the Tennessee Titans. Teller is very honest on the subject.)

* Life in the trenches. We know how David Long harnesses anger. Teller’s approach is different.

* Who’s the one All-Pro defensive tackle that absolutely hates playing Teller?

* His blocking style. Teller breaks down what makes his game unique. It’s an art form.

* Talking to opponents about Jesus between plays.

* Why Chris Jones is the best player he has ever tried to block.

* Expectations in Cleveland. Is this a team that can reach the Super Bowl in 2024?

Enjoy.

This was a fun one.
