Wills was out of football all of 2025 as he worked on health issues. Chicago signed him to compete for a starting job at left tackle with a plethora of other players, but didn’t have room to keep everyone on the roster.
Wills, 27, was drafted by the Browns in the first round out of Alabama in 2020. He signed a four-year, $19,702,911 rookie contract with an $11,889,390 signing bonus.
The Browns picked up Wills’ fifth-year option for the 2024 season before restructuring his contract for the first time in August of 2023. They did so again in March of 2024 in order to create $10.44 million in cap space.
After spending the 2025 season out of football, Wills signed a one-year deal with the Bears in 2026.
In 2024, Wills appeared in five games and made four starts for the Browns at left tackle.
