3 winners, 3 losers from Browns’ training camp

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.

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.

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 […]

Browns QB decision might be about the future after all, just not in the way many thought

The Cleveland Browns might be inching closer to a decision in their quarterback competition, despite both Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders struggling throughout OTAs and training camp.

Browns: D-line looking to be ‘sudden, violent and fast’

The Cleveland Browns have completed the first two weeks of training camp, with only about 99 percent of the focus being on the depressing battle to see who will be the starting quarterback. Fortunately, other areas of the team will play a role in determining how well the 2026 season goes, starting with the defensive […]

The Browns’ “X-factor” on defense for 2026

To use a famous Brady Bunch expression, “Offense! Offense! Offense!” Why is that side of the ball always getting the attention? Unfortunately, even after a good amount of training camp, the Cleveland Browns quarterback situation isn’t any further along than on Day 1, and some drama kicked up on Day 10. RELATED: 3 SECRET SUPERSTARS […]

Browns closing in on QB decision for preseason opener

Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken has spent the first 10 days of training camp putting the offense through its paces as he ponders what to do with an uninspiring quarterback room.

Browns: Will team come to regret this contract extension?

The Cleveland Browns traded defensive end Myles Garrett on June 1, which almost immediately kicked off a wave of speculation about what would come next. The prevailing thought was that the decision to part with the game’s best defensive player surely meant that the Browns were punting on the 2026 season (and maybe a few […]

The Cleveland Browns are rolling along with training camp, with plenty of new players and coaches from last year’s roster. Most notable of the missing is All-World pass rusher Myles Garrett.
