CLEVELAND (AP) - The Browns have acquired offensive lineman Wyatt Teller from the Buffalo Bills.

Cleveland sent a fifth-round and sixth-round pick in 2020 to Buffalo on Thursday for Teller and a seventh-round pick in 2021. The swap came a few hours before the Browns hosted Detroit and Buffalo played Minnesota in their final exhibition games.

The 6-foot-4, 315-pound Teller is in his second season out of Virginia Tech. He was drafted by Buffalo in the fifth round in 2018. Teller was inactive for his first eight games as a rookie before starting the Bills' final seven games at left guard.

The Browns have spent much of the summer trying to fill their right guard spot, and Teller gives them some depth up front.

Teller was the odd-man out after the Bills overhauled their offensive line in free agency and draft. He worked exclusively with the second-team offense through training camp and preseason.
