How much will the Browns’ starters play in the first preseason game?

The Cleveland Browns are set to play their first preseason game this Saturday against the Chicago Bears.

Browns fans’ ‘Hope Index’ is low, not the lowest

Browns 53-man roster projection before the 1st preseason game

What do we know about the Cleveland Browns after training camp? A lot of excitement about the young roster, some winners and losers, Quinshon Judkins is back healthy, and… well, that may be it. The Browns defense seems ready to steady the ship, but the switch from Myles Garrett to Jared Verse will be interesting […]

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins ready to fill Todd Monken’s needs on offense

Defense and a great running game. These are Cleveland Browns hallmarks. All of those Marty Schottenheimer teams that played in three AFC Championship Games featured a really good defense with a run game that was difficult to stop. Paul Brown had both with guys like Jim Brown, Ernie Green, Marion Motley, and Bobby Mitchell. RELATED: […]

Browns still searching for DE help, work out another familiar face

Former Super Bowl champ, ESPN host questions Browns HC Todd Monken’s QB process

The Cleveland Browns still do not have a starting quarterback for the 2026 NFL season, but HC Todd Monken has at least assigned QB Deshaun Watson the title for the first preseason game.

DE Jared Verse is going to have ‘a monster year’ for Browns

When the Cleveland Browns traded DE Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, GM Andrew Berry made it clear that acquiring DE Jared Verse was the key to the whole deal. Analyzing the deal overall was difficult, as Verse’s trade value was hard to calculate as a player at a premium position, going into his […]

Browns past vs Browns present: Predicting 2026 sack totals

In one of the offseason’s biggest blockbuster trades, the Cleveland Browns sent Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for Jared Verse and several draft picks. Garrett is coming off a career-best 23-sack season, but now that the two players are on different rosters, which one will finish the year with more sacks? It may […]

Browns sign TE Dae’Quan Wright from Eagles, place DB on IR

The Cleveland Browns signed big-bodied tight end Dae’Quan Wright out of Ole Miss to bolster the group’s depth. Wright (6’-4”, 255 pounds) is an athletic tight end but has been inconsistent as a blocker. He went undrafted in April’s NFL draft and then signed with the Philadelphia Eagles, but was recently waived. In a corresponding […]

Browns DC: It is the players that make every scheme work

Cleveland Browns defensive coordinator Mike Rutenberg is not walking into an easy situation in 2026.  Not only will this season be his first as a defensive coordinator, but Rutenberg is following Jim Schwartz, who is considered one of the league’s best at calling a defense, which was on display over the past three seasons in […]

Browns offseason once again proving GM Andrew Berry right

We may never know what changed, beyond the fact that the team actually had a full complement (and more) of picks, between the first few NFL drafts for GM Andrew Berry and the one that came in 2025. It could be as simple as the number of high draft picks, once depleted by the failed […]

Browns roster concern on the defensive side of the ball could be a big one

In the NFL, the worst thing to happen in a game on the defensive side of the ball is to hand over games by allowing the other team to run against you at will. Especially up the gut. In the past few years under DC Jim Schwartz, this didn’t happen much against the Cleveland Browns […]
