Whenever the NFL salary cap is discussed related to the Cleveland Browns, QB Deshaun Watson’s contract is always the first talking point. The reality is that the Browns would have been happy to pay Watson that amount of money, and more, if he performed as he did with the Houston Texans. “Guaranteed” doesn’t really matter with great quarterbacks; they will see all their money or get a huge extension.

Under GM Andrew Berry, much like Philadelphia Eagles GM Howie Roseman, Cleveland’s salary cap has been a very creative and flexible tool used to try to put the team in a...

In the NFL, it’s hard to identify a franchise quarterback. In most cases, you know your team has a franchise quarterback early in a few games into a season. It takes longer for most, but for a few, it is instant.

For Browns QB Shedeur Sanders, it is only 2 starts, but they still count

For the Cleveland Browns, it’s been hard. The team hasn’t had a franchise quarterback since ”The Return”. It’s been a revolving door of journeymen, failed draft picks, huge gambles on trades and every other way you can acquire a player. Some think the franchise is...

With much uncertainty at the quarterback position for the Cleveland Browns, there are several routes the organization could choose to take for the 2026 season. They could move forward with one of the quarterbacks currently on the roster – Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, or Dillon Gabriel. They could select one of many quarterbacks in the 2026 draft.

Lastly, one additional route they could take is to bring in another veteran bridge quarterback to run the offense.

Daniel Jones will be a free agent in 2026 and is a potential option for the Browns to target. Jones has exceeded expectations in...

If you look at this current iteration of the Cleveland Browns compared to last season, some will argue the teams are the same. In some ways, those people are wrong, but the team is likely going to be picking in the top five of the upcoming NFL Draft, again. The Browns are in the midst of a mini-rebuild. Many believed that the team should do a full reset, but a full reset would only complicate things further and extend the years of the rebuild.

At 3-9, the team’s already grim with hopes to win the division all but done, so...

Today presents what could be an entertaining day of college football, with five conference championship games on the schedule.

As it relates to the Cleveland Browns and their future plans at quarterback, there are two games that stand out above the others.

First up at 4 p.m. is Georgia vs. Alabama in the SEC Championship Game, where Crimson Tide quarterback Ty Simpson will have the opportunity to polish his résumé with a second win of the season over the Bulldogs.

Then at 8 p.m., the Big 10 Championship Game kicks off between Indiana and Ohio State, which will provide Hoosier...

Not only do the Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans have a combined record of 4-20, but injuries will also keep seven players on the sidelines for Week 14. While both teams might be tanking for the best position pick in the 2026 NFL draft, the players on the field will not be doing so on Sunday.

The problem is that quite a few will not be on the field.

The Browns will be without two starters on the offensive line, while the Titans will be lacking their center and cornerback. Seven other players are questionable for the game.

[Wednesday’s injury...

The Cleveland Browns play consecutive home games for the first time this season when they host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday at Huntington Bank Field.

Cleveland is coming off another dispirited loss, this time to the San Francisco 49ers, as the offense could never find a rhythm in the second start with Shedeur Sanders at quarterback. The Browns have now lost seven of their past nine games.

The Titans are in a worse spot, having lost seven in a row and currently in the driver’s seat to have the No. 1 overall draft pick for the second consecutive season.

While...

We interrupt the 2026 NFL draft season for Week 14 of the 2025 NFL regular season. The Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans face off in a huge (for draft purposes) matchup this week. Two rookie quarterbacks who were talked about at the top of the 2025 NFL draft, Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders, are starting for the two teams that held the top two picks in last year’s draft and are struggling once again.

Wednesday’s injury report was a long one, with 15 players sitting out, including a lot of Titans resting despite only one victory this season. Thursday saw...

Even if everything related to the Cleveland Browns is about the future, particularly the 2026 NFL draft order, not every game in the NFL matters for fans of the team. Many fans start to focus on rooting for the best outcome for the Browns NFL draft positioning, others start to find their “second team” to root for in the ramp up to the playoffs, many focus on rooting against the AFC North, and still some tune out of the NFL altogether.

Sunday’s matchup with the Tennessee Titans is a big one for the two teams’ draft stock. For Cleveland, seven...

The Cleveland Browns will host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday in a game that is not exactly primetime material.

Tennessee enters the game riding a seven-game losing streak, which has them in the running for the No. 1 overall selection in the NFL Draft for a second consecutive year.

Cleveland is right behind them, having lost seven of their past nine games, and is now in the evaluation process for the rest of the season.

On Thursday, Cleveland’s coordinators held their weekly meeting with the media, and here are the key takeaways from what they had to say about the...

Cleveland Browns fans know the drill this time of year. Since “The Return” in 1999, the Browns franchise has been significantly better at being bad than any other team in the NFL. The current iteration has such a slim margin for error that the two-year rebuild process is more likely to take three to get them back into the conversation for the playoffs.

What does that leave Cleveland fans to do? Focus on the 2026 NFL draft order, the changes each week, and what games they are rooting for or against certain teams for positioning.

Week 14’s matchup between the...

Now that three-quarters of the NFL season have evaporated, ESPN is gearing up for its postseason awards by giving fans a sneak peek at which players top all of their lists. Unsurprisingly, given the team’s 2025 NFL draft class, the Cleveland Browns will be prominently displayed in any list that is about rookies this season.

DT Mason Graham has come on strong, LB Carson Schwesinger seems like a lock for Defensive Rookie of the Year (after receiving Rookie of the Month for November), RB Quinshon Judkins has been the main cog of the offense, while TE Harold Fannin Jr. has...
