Cleveland Browns 1st-round draft pick Jedrick Wills celebrated his 21st birthday on May 17, 2020.
Now that he is legally able to have a drink to celebrate his success in the NFL Draft, Wills decided to celebrate his birthday as a true millennial, with a TikTok video showing off his dance moves with his agent, Nicole Lynn.

Admittedly Jedrick’s football moves are better than his dance moves, but he is a good sport.
It is clear he took the time to learn the choreographed routine and gave it his best.
Thankfully, Wills is sticking to his day job which is preparing for NFL action.
As previously reported, Joe Thomas is mentoring him on making the switch from right tackle to left tackle much to the delight of Browns fans.
Is there anything better than seeing @joethomas73 mentoring @JWills73? It was like the handing of the torch, ala Yoda! pic.twitter.com/LnzXf090Re

Wills played right tackle in both high school and college, but Thomas is confident in his ability to make the switch.
Rookie Season Schedule
While everyone is confident in Wills’ talent and work ethic, the release of the NFL schedule also laid the groundwork for who and what he needs to prepare for each week.
In addition to AFC North division rivals Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Cincinnati whom the Browns face twice each season, the Browns play NFC East and AFC South teams in 2020.
Specifically, the Browns face the Eagles, Cowboys, Redskins, and Giants from the NFC East.
The Browns have the Colts, Texans, Jaguars, and Titans from the AFC South.
Outlier opponents are the Las Vegas Raiders and the New York Jets.
Interesting Match Ups for Jedrick Wills
1. Baltimore Ravens, Weeks 1 and 14
Assuming his contract situation is resolved, Matthew Judon (currently carrying the Ravens franchise tag) will be Wills’ opposition in these divisional matchups.
Judon will prove a worthy adversary as he had 28.5 sacks in 4 seasons with the Ravens.
Derek Wolfe will also be in action, and he works well against opposing teams’ run games.
2. Washington Redskins, Week 3
With the addition of 2020 draftee Chase Young (2nd overall pick), the Redskins have assembled an imposing pass rush.
Young joins Ryan Kerrigan who is coming off an injury so his 2019 numbers were not what he usually produced and Montez Sweat who is known as one of the best athletes in the NFL.
Expect the Redskins to craft plays with all three of these guys on the field at one time which could give Jedrick Wills headaches.
3. Las Vegas Raiders, Week 8
Wills will have to contend with the 4th pick of the 2019 NFL Draft, Clelin Ferrell and former Brown Carl Nassib.
Expectations are high for a brilliant sophomore campaign for Ferrell who finished 2019 with 4.5 sacks.
Nassib has size, technique, and effort on his side.
4. Philadelphia Eagles, Week 11
Wills will face another former Brown in Genard Avery.
The Browns traded Avery to the Eagles last season.
Avery had 4.5 sacks in his rookie season of 2018.
His performance slacked when the Browns asked him to put on weight and try to fit into their scheme.
The Eagles will probably have Avery back at his rookie playing weight where he is a more dangerous player.
While Browns fans are happy to see Wills dancing and celebrating his 21st birthday, they are more eager to watch him protect Baker Mayfield on the field this season.
