The same names keep coming up for the Cleveland Browns at picks 54 and 85, so we put them in categories of slam dunk, I get it, and wildcards.Nobody knows what general manager Andrew Berry is hoping to do in the draft so looking at prospects that should be available at 54 and 85 the goal was find those who make a ton of sense to draft to those who do make sense but maybe we never focused on certain positions enough.Tight end keeps coming up as a position of need for the Browns and certainly could be the wildcard selection for either pick 54 or 85.#Dawgpound #Browns Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

Cleveland Browns General Manager a week before the draft signs veteran offensive lineman Germain Ifedi. The move is interesting in a couple of ways. Ifeadi is totally capable of making this roster, can start at either right tackle or right guard if needed. However the Browns would like to draft some youth for that room for new offensive line coach Andy Dickerson. So the room appears a bit crowded.Running Back and Defensive tackle can be two positions Cleveland can draft that can have a path to early playing time.#Browns Dawgpound Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

Jim Cobern of All Pro Football Data joins once again to as defensive prospects are discussed as their data is compared to players of the past.If the Browns are indeed in at the linebacker position Cedric Gray and Jeremiah Trotter Jr both have extensive college resumes.Mike hall, Mekhi Wingo, and Mason Smith all have high marks as far as market share in concerned and could help Cleveland solidify their defensive tackle room for the future.The defensive end class is just not up to par with classes from the past. If Cleveland does dip into this group a name like Marshawn Breeland would be interesting.#Dawgpound #BrownseBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

Jim Cobern of All Pro Football Data on youtube joins the show to break down several draft prospects in regards of market share scores compared to players going 30 years back.Audric Estime should be able to defy the naysayers due to his production and age.The wide receiver class is as good as advertised with tons of players meeting athletic or production thresholds. The tight end class is one to watch because even though several guys didn't produce a ton in college their athleticism says it very much could be on it's way.#Dawgpound #BrownseBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

The Cleveland Browns made roster moves Tuesday, Jack Conklin was put on season ending injured reserve. Veteran guard Michael Dunn was brought up to the 53 man roster from the practice squad. Tommy Togiai return the practice squad, and veteran offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe was also added to the practice squad. Lorenzo Burns with a now healthy Denzel Ward was released from the practice squad. If the Elf aggravates opponents it can stay. Final takeaways from the Bengals win, one on offense, one on defense. Dawand Jones is now the guy at right tackle and he faces a huge test in his debut facing TJ Watt. The Steelers will be down to key starters come Monday night but will be looking to get in the win column after a disappointing showing against the San Francisco 49rts.

It's safe to say Browns fans are feeling very optimistic after Week 1 in the NFL after the Browns beat the Bengals, the Steelers got smoked by the 49ers and the AFC felt wonky. Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe start this Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast by answering a question about where the Browns rank in the AFC after the first week and why it's OK to feel good about this team right now. They also answer questions about how the Browns will do with Dawand Jones at right tackle and if the offensive line can hold up with him and Jedrick Wills as the book ends. They also discuss Monday night's matchup against the Steelers and if Browns fans should be nervous going into the game. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

PFF's John Kosko joins in his weekly regular season episode to discuss the Cleveland Browns opening victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Grant Delpit had a special day literally hitting the bingo card of player success. Plays deep in man coverage stopping ball carriers short of the sticks, and getting a solid hit on Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow. The defensive line was outstanding and the corners played well also but there was some poor execution on the Bengals part that lead to the blowout. Offensively Deshaun's day had some ups and down but he made plays when it mattered, Deshaun does not have to play lights out for this team to win. It's Dawaand Jones time now at RT and he will need work on his run blocking game but he has a grade of 85 thus far in his pass pro reps. The rookie should be ready.

Anthony and Jackson break down the Browns season opening victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, the dominant performance by the defense, the concerns over Deshaun Watson albeit the tough weather conditions, and the unfortunate injury ending Jack Conklin’s season.
The Cleveland Browns make a week one statement by beating the Cincinnati Bengals convincingly at home 24-3.The offense wasn't perfect but was effective running for over two hundred yards on the ground and most importantly keeping Joe Burrow and his weapons off the field. Deshaun Watson left some throws on the field but used his legs and pieced together throws to make a difference. Nick Chubb was his reliable self going for over one hundred yards. Elijah Moore showed splashes with a 19 yard run and a 33 yard reception.The Browns defense was a menace all day, Joe Burrow was frazzled and had a hard time finding receivers due to outstanding coverage from the Cleveland secondary. Myles Garrett had a game clinching sack in the fourth quarter to cap off an incredible day for Jim Schwartz in his debut. The run defense was light years better than last season.#Dawgpound #BrownsJase MedicalSave more than $360 by getting these lifesaving antibiotics with Jase Medical plus an additional $20 off by using code LOCKEDON at checkout on jasemedical.com.

Anthony and Jackson preview the Browns season opening matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, touch on some Browns news, the injury report and the keys to the game before making their season opening game predictions.
Deshaun Watson and Myles Garrett should lead the Cleveland Browns on Sunday as they open the 2023 season at home against the Cincinnati Bengals.The Bengals secondary features two new starting safeties and their top corner back is returning from an ACL tear suffered on Halloween in Cleveland. Deshaun Watson and his deep receiving talent should be in attack mode early and often.Joe Burrow is one of the games best quarterbacks, but Cleveland has been a team he has really struggled against. The Browns up-graded defensive line and safety group create even more issues. Burrow possibly being limited by his calf could be in for long dayagainst what should be a relentless Browns pass rush. Juan Thornhill and Rodney Mcleod are ball hawks ready to pounce on any off schedule throws.Game score prediction and more.#Dawgpound #BrownsHarry'sGet your best shave ever this summer with Harry’s razors and skin care products.

Anthony and Jackson go through their “DawgLand Browns Bets” for the 2023 season as well as give their season predictions for the 2023 NFL season including who they think will hoist the Lombardi Trophy at Super Bowl LVIII.
The Cleveland Browns began practices for week one of their season against the Cincinnati Bengals, however Denzel Ward remains in the concussion protocol. Denzel has missed time during his career but when he is on the field he is one of top corner backs in the league.If Ward can't go it will be interesting to see what Jim Schwartz's plan of attack will be at the corner position, does Newsome remain outside? Cam Mitchell, Kahel Hailassie, and AJ Green would figure to play a lot more than expected.The Bengals are debuting two new safety's and have their top corner back returning from an ACL injury. Deshaun Watson and the offense should be in attack mode vertically.#Dawgpound #BrownsHarry'sGet your best shave ever this summer with Harry’s razors and skin care products.

The job the Browns have done in tearing down a defensive line to the studs and rebuilding it has been been incredible to watch. This went from a very weak unit with only Myles Garrett being a consistent play maker to being top five possibly. Veteran additions and young guys with upside the potential is there to be a special unit.The Browns named their five captains for the season. Watson, Bitonio, Garrett, Walker, Hughlett, and a rotating captain each week.The "no" news on Alex Wright was indeed good as he was back on the practice field.Several players have new jersey numbers.#Dawgpound #BrownsGametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNFL for $20 off your first purchase.

The Cleveland Browns initial 53 man roster held in tact for about 21 hours.The Browns were awarded Kahlef Hailassie off of waivers from the Kansas City Cheifs, and released veteran AJ Green shortly thereafter. The team hopes to get Green back on the practice squad but we will have to see on that. They got a good look at Hailassie last Saturday in the preseason finale.The practice squad currently has 15 out of 16 spots filled, 12 names are ones we are all familiar with. There were three names added to the squad two of which are very interesting. Alex Leatherwood was picked 17th overall by the Raiders in 2021 and is a solid athlete who now gets to be the next project for offensive line coach Bill Callahan. P.J. Walker had a stint as the starting quarterback for the Panthers and now comes to Cleveland to help Deshaun Watson and mentor Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Lucas Havrisik spent some time with the Colts in 2022 and has a relationship with new Browns special teams coach Bubba Ventrone.#Dawgpound #BrownsGametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNFL for $20 off your first purchase.

Anthony and Jackson break down the Browns inital roster, who they expect to be back and their thoughts on the roster heading into the 2023 season
The Browns make the final decision on their biggest roster issue today by releasing Cade York after trading for veteran kicker Dustin Hopkins. York had all the potential and at times it showed just could not show enough consistency. Cleveland having lost four games last year by three points or less and looking at a difficult schedule to start the year had to make the move. Hopkins does not have the strength of York but he is consistent from 48 and in. Mike Dunn it seems got the Greg Robinson and Kevin Zeitler treatment in one shot, but should be back. Debating the non-obvious roster cuts remaining and taking into account the team has 3 possible players who are injured they may want to keep on their final 53.

The Cleveland Browns in dire need of running back help perhaps found the answer by trading Tyrone Wheatley Jr to the New Patriots for Pierre Strong Jr. Strong became the odd guy out in New England with the signing of Ezekial Elliott but brings an athletic profile that could play well behind this Cleveland offensive line. The team received bad news when it was announced Jakeem Grant is out for the season again after suffering a knee injury on the first play of the preseason finale. Jordan Kunaszyk will miss months with an MCL injury. The Browns cut the roster down to 76 with the most notable cuts being Anthony Schwartz and Jordan Wilkins. There were was a couple flashes for Schwartz but inconsistency and injury was the story for the former top 100 pick. Wilkins time in Cleveland was brief he just didn't click within the Browns offense. The Browns offense looked sharp and the defense mad a lot of plays early. Cade York, the Browns just can't afford to to go through this tough first 5 games with a guy who has been this incosistent.

Jackson McCurry goes solo on this episode to catch up on a wild Sunday of Browns news including the unfortunate injury news, a trade to bolster an offensive position group as well as the beginning of the cut downs before Tuesday's deadline!
This video was done before the Josh Dobbs trade. The Browns finished up their last training camp practice, we learned Grant Delpit's ding was not that serious and he could perhaps play Saturday in the preseason finale.Cedric Tillman and AJ Green had some nice battles with both getting wins. York hit his kicks but it's got to translate to games. The first team offense playing 20-25 plays has to yield to at least double digit points in Kansas City. The running back room after Nick Chubb is still very cloudy, one way or another the Browns will some clarity in that room. Jakeem Grant sees his first NFL action in 20 months on Saturday, he shows anything he has a roster spot to start the season. If a defensive tackle besides Tomlinson or Harris can show some consistency that would behoove Cleveland, keep an eye on Maurice Hurst. The Browns may only keep five linebackers so that creates a musical chairs for Mohamoud Diabate, Jordan Kunaszky, and Matthew Adams.

Deshaun Watson spoke with the media today and let the doubters and those who rank him low he understands their stance due to his inactivity. He spoke on Coach Stefanski and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt building an offense to suit him and giving him the keys to it. Grand Delpit suffered an arm injury after practice was moved inside due to pending weather. The Browns are staying active in the running back market, could that lead to reuniting with D"Ernest Johnson?

The Browns continue to restructure contacts giving them flexibility for the now and later, as the cap increases every year and a new television deal coming soon. It's a testament to the work of Andrew Berry and his staff but also shows a willing an owner who badly wants a winner. Predicting a final 53 on offense is impossible to do without including Austin Watkins Jr, the kid has been on a tear and the Browns show ride that horse until it bucks them. On defense the defensive tackle room isn't set just yet so keeping five may be the correct move. Mohamoud Diabate has forced the front offices hand they most likely don't want to keep 6 linebackers but Diabate has been too good to release.

Jack Duffin of The OBR joins Jackson to project their initial rosters and discuss some potential remaining roster battles before the Browns preseason finale this weekend.
Jack also breaks down the Myles Garrett and Joel Bitonio contract restructures and what it means for the Browns in 2023 and beyond.
Looking over projections for Deshaun Watson something seems glaring, most analysts don't feel Watson can match his numbers from his days in Houston. Watson has more talent than ever around him here in Cleveland and to think he's not going to produce just seems wild. As we wind down training camp we focus on players on Offense who had a solid month. Dawand Jones has been fantastic, dubbed "starter ready" by Brian Baldinger. Austin Watkins Jr, has truly been a outta nowhere story. DTR has a future in this league. Mohamoud Diabate has pleaded his case.

Anthony Joki and Jackson McCurry are here to discuss the Browns tie with the Philadelphia Eagles in preseason game #3.
Deshaun Watson has heard and seen whats been written about his play the last few days and today took it on the Browns defense. Several touchdown passes. several down the field throws as number four gets ready for about a half of game work Saturday in Kansas City. The Wide Receiver room os trending towards keeping seven with Jakeem Grant just coming out of nowhere to find a path to the final 53. Grant's return ability and being able to mimic the Elijah Moore special sauce stuff may be his key in. Watkins isn't going anywhere as of now. Denzel Ward has had a solid summer and has enjoyed competing against this talented and diverse Browns wide receiver room. Dawand Jones did a few reps at left tackle, lets see if the coaching staff continues with this or was it a one time thing.

The Browns tied with the Eagles in their third preseason game, lots of positives were had none bigger than Austin Watkins Jr. Watkins continues to impress and put up a monster night in only three quarters. It seems there is no way this team can release him. Dorian Thompson_Robinson and Kellen Mond made more big plays even if their completion percentages were down. Mohamoud Diabate was dominant and is creating another difficult decision in the linebacker room. Yes the Browns need Cade York to be more consistent, we'll see how this plays out but there's layers to it.

Another preseason game, another kicker discussion. Cade York remains the topic of discussion after the Browns tied the Eagles and York missed back-to-back kicks -- one negated by a penalty and the rekick right after. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discuss York and what the Browns should do about the issues their second-year kicker is having. Do they need to bring in another kicker? What is the risk of not having a Plan B at the position? Can York's confidence be saved? Then they discuss Jadeveon Clowney going to the Ravens and what impact he could have for the Browns' division rival. Lastly, they talk about one player each who stood out in Thursday's preseason game against the Eagles. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

The Browns held their first of two joint practices against the Eagles on Monday in Philadelphia. It was a good opportunity to get a look at the new-look Browns offense against a fierce Eagles and pass rush and see the Browns' new defense and pass rush go against a good Eagles offense. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe recapped Day 1 of the joint practices early Tuesday morning and discussed what they saw. They start by looking at the offense and the state of the receiver room, especially on a day when Amari Cooper struggled. Then they turn their attention to the defense. What did they see from the defensive line on Monday? What about the secondary and how they matched up against the Eagles passing attack? Want to get involved in Football Insider?

Anthony Joki and Jackson McCurry are back to review the second preseason game, discuss the signing of Shelby Harris and they look ahead to the joint practices with the Eagles before their game on Thursday.
The Browns are close to what will be the final 53 (injuries permitting) in Jeff's eyes so we try to narrow down what battles are left. The fourth running back battle is still going on, could it be the veteran Wilkins, the undrafted free agent Hall, or an unknown. Watkins at this point looks to be a guy to make the roster, his production can not be ignored. If the Browns keep 10 olineman there is a battle but the first nine are set in stone. Defensive end gets tricky because of the injuries to Alex Wright and Isiah Thomas. Charlie Thomas could be an interesting guy, he keeps making plays and brings physicality to his game. Safety Ronnie Hickman keeps trending upward which should have him locked in.

Pff's John Kosko joins the show to talk Browns player grades through their first two preseason games. Dorian Thompson-Robinson has been an amazing surprise to this point with his poise and overall football smarts. Demetric Felton has probably solidified a roster spot, he can play a lot of places on offense and has return ability. Dawand Jones has been outstanding to this point, his footowrk is starter ready, already. The linebackers now being kept clean are showing they are better players than most think as they can just read and react. Ronnie Hickman has shown really well thus far under the PFF lens, a good find thus far as a UDFA. Nutrafol Take the first step to visibly thicker, healthier hair.

The Cleveland Browns lost to the Washington Commanders and yes they are negatives but a lot of positives can be taken away as well. The Deshaun Watson one drive was impressive as Watson was perfect on his passes and used his legs well. We saw Elijah Moore in this Percy Harvin type role the Browns have planned for him. Dorian Thompson-Robinson continues to shine and has been flawless to this point through two preseason games. On Defense rookie safety Ronnie Hickman had a solid night registering two interceptions. The linebackers were kept clean and played well as all of Phillips, Fields, Owusu_Koramoah, and Thomas each had three solo tackles. Sadly Jacob Phillips tore his pec and is out for the season, which could be the end of his time here for the Browns. Cleveland travels to Philadelphia to start joint practices and then the preseason game versus the Eagles on Thursday night.

After more than a week of waiting on word from Shelby Harris the Cleveland Browns got the answer they were waiting for. Harris signed a one year deal with the Browns. This was the only room left on the roster that needed one more proven player on they got just that in the now nine year veteran. The Browns will play a majority of their starters Friday night versus the Washington Commanders. This was the correct choice as the offense is transitioning to more a throw heavy team and Watson and his weapons need to be ready for week one when they face the Bengals. There is a ton of newness on defense and they can't afford to be slow out of the gates with a very tough first five opponents.

Anthony Joki and Jackson McCurry are back with another update from Browns' Training Camp as they conclude practices at The Greenbrier and return to Berea.
On today's episode: - Browns bring in Shelby Harris for a visit/workout - Elijah Moore the star of camp so far - David Njoku also building a good connection with Deshaun Watson - Denzel Ward looking to bounce back under Jim Schwartz - The guys touch on the Guardians trade of Aaron Civale
The Cleveland Browns concluded their training camp getaway at the Greenbrier in West Virginia. In what had been a week of the offense showing out today the defense got their revenge in. Even though in shells the defense had plenty of would be sacks and even the plays the coaches let go on the secondary had stout coverage all day. Myles Garrett and Obo Okoronkwo were menacesall day. There were some fights at today's practice which Coach Stefanski dealt with by forcing the guys to run sprints. The secondary has been getting very tough reps with the wide receivers and tight ends which should help with the Bengals waiting week one. Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson was one who stood out on offense and let's see if he can keep that going as we figure he sees a lot of playing time in the Hall of Fame game on Thursday.

As the training camp road trip in West Virginia winds down it's been apparent to this point the offense is looking vastly improved. Deshaun Watson has been throwing with great velocity and great accuracy all week at camp, it really looks like he's getting back into his comfort zone. Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson is starting find some footing and should challenge for the Browns back-up job sooner than later. Elijah Moore, Donovan Peoples-Jones, and even Daylen Baldwin have showed to reliable targets through seven practices. David Njoku is just a mismatch nightmare, too athletic for linebackers and too big for defensive backs to cover.

The Cleveland Browns finished their fourth day of training camp, the practices picked up in pace ahead of Thursday's off day. They went full on 11 v 11 albeit with no pads. The first play was a sack for the defense, but the offense had their wins as well. The 7 v 7 red zone work was pretty much dominated by the defense. Thomas Graham and Jacob Phillips both had big pass break ups. Martin Emerson and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah have both looks very good thus far. Daylen Baldwin getting reps with three wide receivers out has shown well. The returner jobs still sime wide open and could vital to a roster fringe wide out making the team.

The trio begin by discussing Deshaun Watson’s media availability and hit on his tone for the season and his attempt at turning the page forward to football after a 2022 season in which he served an 11-game suspension after an investigation into sexual misconduct allegations. They also discuss Nick Chubb, and his thoughts on the running back contract landscape across the league and what it could mean for his future in Cleveland. They also hit on Amari Cooper leaving practice early and being day-to-day, and what GM Andrew Berry had to say about parting ways with Perrion Winfrey. Finally, Dan and Mary Kay give some insight into what it is like covering training camp away from Berea. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

The Cleveland Browns first two practices of their 2023 season are in the books. At the Greenbrier in West Virginia the teams starts their '23 journey. The good news is the Browns have both Anthony Walker and Sione Takitaki on the field. Albeit limited it's still better than expected news for two players who finished the year on injured reserve. The bad news, the wide receiver room is dealing with some early issues. Marquise Goodwin's blood clot issue is a scary concern. The number six jersey is back in action. Thoughts on Deshaun Watson and Nick Chubb media availability.

The Browns opened up 2023 training camp on Saturday at The Greenbrier. Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe recapped the first day of practice on the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. They start by discussing Marquise Goodwin and him missing the start of camp due to blood clots. How does it impact the Browns and do they expect to see Goodwin this season? Then they talk about Amari Cooper's return from injury and Anthony Schwartz dealing with a hamstring injury to start camp. They also discuss the defense and Denzel Ward and say what they would advise players to do on their off day on Wednesday. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

We close out the training camp series putting the focus on the secondary players as the Browns head down to West Virginia. Denzel Ward is the leader of the cornerback's and he along with Greg Newsome and Martin Emerson should flourish as Jim Schwartz looks to simplify things on defense. AJ Green has been a roster stalwart the last two seasons but faces competition this summer. The safety room got a redo as Juan Thornhill was brought in to be the true over the top guy that this team has lacked for years. Rodney McLeod coming in allows Grant Delpit to play closer to the line of scrimmage. Undrafted rookie Ronnie Hickman is one to watch this summer and should make this team. Jim Schwartz is tasked with getting this defense right and his track record says he's the man for the job.

The Browns open training camp Saturday and play a football game in two Thursdays. What better time to throw open the floor and let our Football Insider subscribers ask us whatever they want, football or not. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe take one last opportunity to answer as many random questions as they can before diving headfirst into football until at least January. There are football questions, of course, about Kevin Stefanski's playcalling and his future, the defensive line, Andrew Berry's player acquisitions and Browns goals and priorities this season. There are also plenty of non-football questions. Which non-fiction sports books are must reads? Which 'Succession' character do we most relate to? Who would we want to interview (alive or dead)? It's all covered on this Thursday edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

The Cleveland Browns have their first roster cut of training camp. Perrion Winfrey has been released after yet another off-field incident. Winfrey was given plenty of rope by the Browns brass but obviously was on a final warning and this lead to a move the Browns had to make. Cleveland really needed to add a veteran defensive tackle and we'll see how quickly they pursue this now, even bigger need. We continue with training camp previews and focus on the linebackers. Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah is figured to take most of the reps but rehabbing Anthony Walker and Sione Takitaki could jump in if he can not. The rest of the room is hard to figure as Andrew Berry brought in linebackers with the sole purpose of playing special teams. So it will be an interesting unit to watch this summer.

Anthony Joki and Jackson McCurry are back with the new season of The Dawgland Podcast with the 2023 Cleveland Browns season quickly approaching.
On today's episode:
Welcome back to football! Perrion Winfrey released Expectations for the 2023 season Which offseason acquisition will make the biggest impact? What does Deshaun Watson need to accomplish this season? Who are we excited to watch? Do the browns have enough leadership? New white helmet revealed
The Browns waived second-year defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey on Wednesday morning after details emerged of a disturbing incident he was involved in, resulting in Winfrey being listed as a suspect in an aggravated robbery incident. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discuss the latest legal issue for Winfrey on Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk podcast and why the Browns stuck by Winfrey for so long after a season full of maturity issues and a separate incident in Harris County earlier this offseason. Then they look ahead to training camp and discuss what they're looking forward to watching when the Browns finally take the practice field this weekend and beyond.

Charles McDonald joins to talk Browns ahead of training camp. Deshaun Watson is the key to this and to assume his abilities are gone seems very immature. His game should return to form. Jim Schwartz was a major addition to a defense that needed a redo. Andrew Berry has given him multiple additions to help his defensive line heavy scheme work. Charles feels the Browns should make the playoffs but the AFC North and the AFC in general are just loaded.

The Cleveland Browns training camp positional preview series continues as we focus on the defensive tackle room. Dalvin Tomlinson was an excellent signing and should flourish under new defensive boss Jim Schwartz. After Tomlinson this group has players with potential but no NFL success. Can Jim Schwartz coach some of them up? Can some of these players get a season of health they've never had? Unless this room has a great start to training camp it's crazy to think that Andrew Berry isn't looking to add a veteran.

Training camp week is here and we are back with a brand new Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe start by recapping their time off before they get caught up on some recent news, including DeAndre Hopkins agreeing to sign with the Titans. Should the Browns have gone harder after Hopkins? Then they answer questions from Football Insider subscribers about which players could break out this season, who could become the darling of training camp and who we should temper expectations for this year? They also discuss if there are players on the roster who could be Hall of Famers and touch on the league's gambling policy. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

We continue the training camp series by putting the defensive end room under the lens. The questions of leadership in regards to Myles Garrett just need to be put to rest. Would you rather he be a great leader or the best defensive end in the NFL? This could be his best year ever with the major upgrades in talent he is now paired with. ZaDarius Smith and Ogbo Okoronkwo bring major upgrades to the two and three spot's and both have on playoff teams. Isiah McGuire figures to be a roster lock as he was just drafted. Alex Wright is a better athlete and two years younger than Isiah Thomas. Thomas could be a trade option. Lonnie Phelps doesn't fit the Browns preferred size at defensive end but his motor could find him on a practice squad.

We're continuing our 23 questions series on today's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Today, our focus is on two of the Browns' most important offensive players, running back Nick Chubb and tight end David Njoku. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start by discussing Chubb and how his role will evolve in 2023 and the Browns' new-look offense. Will Chubb get more touches in the passing game? Will he take the next step as an all-around back? Then they turn their attention to David Njoku. Will Njoku make a leap playing a full season with Deshaun Watson at quarterback? Will he put his name in the same sentence as some of the top tight ends in the NFL? Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

On our Friday podcast today, Doug Lesmerises and Dan Labbe got together to figure out some bets they're keeping an eye on as the Browns season approaches.

Could some Browns players win some awards? They throw out some opportunities. Then they look at the NFL and come up with some interesting long shots to watch and some other bets they like.

The Training Camp Preview series continues as we focus on the wide receivers. This room is deep and ready to produce. Amari Cooper was very impressive in '22 with a difficult quarterback situation and although he will likely see less targets this season the production should stay around the same as Cleveland will be throwing the more frequently. Donovan Peoples-Jones enters his contract year, he's been a fascinating player to watch develop from former sixth round pick to starter. Elijah Moore was a huge get for General Manager Andrew Berry. He differs from other Browns wide receivers and the slate should be set for career numbers. Marquisse Goodwin brings a skill set and has looked good thus far but there's plenty of young competition. David Bell and Cedric Tillman will find playing time if they contribute those reps could grow.

It's been a while since Doug Lesmerises joined us on the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast and he's back on Thursday and he has some questions. Doug joins Lance Reisland and Dan Labbe to ask questions about the Browns defense and get caught up on concerns and other things he wants to know. Why will Jim Schwartz be better than Joe Woods? Is there more for Myles Garrett to accomplish? How good can the Browns secondary be? Which unit will be better, the offense or the defense. Doug asks and Dan and Lance answer.

The Browns have made significant changes on both sides of the ball heading into 2023, whether through player acquisitions, coaching changes or both. It's created a high level of intrigue for what this team can do this season. Cleveland.com's film expert, Lance Reisland, joined Dan Labbe on Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast to talk about the 10 players they are most excited to see this season. They do a draft and take turns picking five players each, starting with some obvious choices and then winding through the roster. At the end, they throw out some honorable mention picks, too, including one player they probably should have drafted. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

The Cleveland Browns will be off to begin training camp on July 22nd so we start our preview series of each positional group. We focus today on the tight end position on this episode, David Njoku is under valued in league circles but his growth as a player can't be ignored. His blocking has become plus and his production based over a full season basis show he may be top five. Jordan Akins and Harrison Bryant both can bring value as receivers but need to show enough blocking ability to get those reps. More importantly so for Bryant who enters his first free agency cycle. If the Browns need they can use James Hudson again as a short yardage tight end and even perhaps rookie Dawand Jones. The future of the room is cloudy and Andrew Berry will have his eyes on possible tight end practice squad players, who could stick long term. David Njoku will have his best season in 2023 as the Browns will open their passing game.

We're steering away from football talk on our Monday edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast and we're turning our attention to the Fourth of July. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe decided today would be a great day to do a Fourth of July draft. What are the things we love to do on the holiday? What are the things we love about the holiday? They do a snake draft and pick everything Fourth of July. We're taking the holiday off on Tuesday but will be back on Wednesday with more Browns podcasts -- and make our return to talking Browns and the NFL. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

We are joined by Dawgs By Nature producer Jared Mueller to discuss the overall improvement to the roster. Za"Darius Smith and Ogbonnia Okoronkwo tripled the production of Jadeveon Clowney and Chase Winovich. Alex Wright can go back on the learning path he should've been on. Juan Thornhill coming in as a true free safety? Younger players will have to earn playing time not be forced into action if not ready. If Deshaun Watson is great the Browns are super bowl contenders, he does not have to be elite. Defending the Browns in certain personnel packages is going to be incredibly difficult. Jim Schwartz and the defensive line should ease any thought of a slow start to the year. They have players who win one on one's. They don't have to be cute, simple can work early.

Brett Kollmann joins the show to discuss how the Browns have gotten the NFL world excited for them before and failed to meet the hype, why should this time be different? The offense will be slightly shifted to Watson's style but should not detract things the Browns excelled at prior to his arrival. There is a lot riding on this season for the Cleveland staff and front office and how Watson performs will decide the fate of those individuals. Hiring Jim Schwartz to run the defense was a smart move but adding bodies that will allow this team to play more nickel and dime was vital. The Browns secondary and pass rushing unit's are very deep. Allowing these players to excel at what they do best should see a major improvement overall in the group. The AFC is going to be a dogfight and the Browns should be in the race but the early part of the schedule should determine how 2023 plays out.

This season ushers in a new era for the Browns defense under Jim Schwartz. How the defensive line performs has made the headlines, but how Schwartz deploys his safeties is another big thing to keep an eye on this season. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe continue their 23 Browns questions series on Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast by looking at the safeties and how Schwartz might deploy them. Then they turn their attention to backup quarterback. Is Joshua Dobbs the answer for the Browns? When does Dorian Thompson-Robinson need to take over as the backup to justify the pick?

Myles Garrett's career in Cleveland is already off to a roaring start. He's broken the team's official sack record and will break the unofficial record soon. He's also getting close to 100 sacks and, two years in a row, logged 16 sacks. Is there another level for Garrett? Will he break his own sack record and finally win that elusive Defensive Player of the Year award? Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discuss Garrett in their latest 23 questions podcast. Is this the best defensive line he's played on? How will Jim Schwartz impact Garrett? What is the next level for Garrett? They get into all of it on Tuesday's podcast.

It's not uncommon for local and national opinions on a team to differ, especially this time of year. Why does it happen? Who's got it right? Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe tackle that question on Tuesday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Our questions came from our Football Insider subscribers. Mary Kay and Dan also answer questions about leadership at the player level and who might step up, who could Browns fans clamor to get the ball more a few weeks into the season and how will Kevin Stefanski and Alex Van Pelt adjust the offense with Nick Chubb and Deshaun Watson together? They even answer questions about naming the dog mascot and how they'll spend time at The Greenbrier. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

The Cleveland Browns has a promising start in '21 fade into the abyss after the Mayfield injury and overall disarray, the '22 season started with issues like playing the second string quarterback for eleven games. Also a defense that was thought highly of turn into a unit that could not get out of it's own way. Andrew Berry provided coaching and roster upgrades everywhere so it's not time for the Browns to show they can be a consistent winner. Deshaun Watson has had playmakers added as the offense will shift to a style where most feel we will see the return to stardom for Watson. Jerome Ford is the wild card on offense as we just haven't seen enough to know whether he can step into a 150 touch role in year two. The defensive overhaul looks great on paper but the unit can not be one that starts slow with a slew on difficult teams on the opening of the schedule. Jim Schwartz looking to keep things simple and letting his stars just go out and play has already won over the secondary. This team with a strong start should contend for the AFC North title and a playoff trip in 2023 and if they don't the future of the head coach will rightfully be questioned as NFL teams don't usually keep a head man who's missed the playoffs for three straight years.

On this summer Friday, we decided to have a little fun. Mary Kay Cabot and Ashley Bastock took questions from our Football Insider Subscribers for an AMA. The two hit on their favorite Cleveland ice cream spots and the latest restaurants they've tried. We're also staying on a music theme this week as they pick their dream concert lineup. There's some football talk mixed in too, as they discuss why they think the NFL John Carroll University pipeline exists since Ashley has some inside knowledge as an alum. They also touch on alternate career paths they think they would be good at, and finally, Mary Kay closes with a fun tidbit from her time covering the team during the Bill Belichick era.

The Cleveland Browns have three major factors going for them which should have them contending in 2023. Deshaun Watson will have no more newness to him in his second year, and is surrounded by quality in all phases of his offense. The receiving group is upgraded with a potential break-out player. David Njoku has grown into a complete NFL tight end. Nick Chubb and the offensive line have always been a group that can dominate a weak defense. Winning teams build their defense on the premise of playing with the lead. So you build your unit with more defensive lineman and secondary players to combat the oncoming passing game. Cleveland is five deep at edge, upgraded at defensive tackle, and posses a secondary that could have eight to nine guys see legit reps. Jim Schwartz coming into to coordinate Myles Garrett and a now deep defensive roster feels like it should be getting more affection then it's going.

It's almost that time of year. We are exactly one month away from the Browns beginning training camp and that means it's time to preview their practice schedule. Mary Kay Cabot and Ashley Bastock discuss the schedule for open practices in Berea, and how fans can get free tickets for those eight open sessions. They also discuss Cleveland's decision to begin training camp out of town this year at The Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia with a week of closed practices, and their two joint practices in Philadelphia with the Eagles. The two also get into answering one of their 23 questions ahead of the '23 season. First up, they tackle who will start opposite of Dalvin Tomlinson on the interior defensive line. They make the case for why it could actually be an additional edge rusher in Za'Darius Smith, and all the new alignments they might see. Finally, they break down the latest with Perrion Winfrey and what his role could be after he encountered a legal issue this offseason that charges were dismissed for last week.

We've discussed the Browns new defensive scheme a ton over the last few weeks, after getting our first look at Jim Schwartz's system in OTAs and minicamp. With a new DC, will the Browns have a defense that can hinder mobile quarterbacks up front -- in particular division rival Ravens QB Lamar Jackson? That's what one of our Football Insider subscribers wants to know and a question that Mary Kay Cabot and Ashley Bastock answer on Wednesday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. The two also discuss some personnel questions on the interior defensive line, Kevin Stefanski's play calling, and which pass catcher on the roster could be a wild card contributor. The duo also answers questions about what it's like to cover a team when losses start to pile up and which sports figure they would most like to interview. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

Fans aren't afraid of sharing their high expectations for the Browns heading into the 2023 season. But is there one aspect of the team that you're afraid won't live up to the hype? And how might that impact their playoff goals? That's what one of our Football Insider subscribers wants to know and a question that Mary Kay Cabot and Ashley Bastock answer on Tuesday's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. They also discuss who the most important players to make those playoff goals come true are, outside of Deshaun Watson and Myles Garrett. The two also discuss the roles Demetric Felton Jr. and Isaiah McGuire might play, and finally, they touch on Ashley attending Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour this weekend in Pittsburgh, how it compared to an NFL game, and which players on the Browns have musical talent.

Cleveland Browns General Manager Andrew Berry put in tireless work improving the roster this off-season, while also upgrading the coaching staff. However the most important addition to to the franchise in 2023 will be the return to form of quarterback Deshaun Watson. Expectations should be that he returns to the top tier talent he always was. New defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz should have a fun time putting together dime sets. How he uses his pass rushers will open up the ability to play five or six defensive backs, and his talent is deep at both corner back and safety. The edge group for the Browns has a well balanced mix, a true superstar in Myles Garrett. A crafty established veteran who's played on successful teams everywhere he's been. A rising player in Okoronklwo who brings talent and a winning pedigree. Then potential in Alex Wright and Isiah Maguire, both players in limited roles should pay some dividends as they wait their time.

Locked On NFL Scouting host Kyle Crabbs joins the show to discuss the changes made in Cleveland and just what the potential of this team can be in 2023. Andrew Berry invested in his investment in Deshaun Watson by adding even more receiving talent to the roster. Watson may never play at the level he did in 2020 but he doesn't have to. If the Jim Schwartz can get the defense to stop the run they should feast in nickel and dime groupings with an arsenal of pass rushers and very good depth in the secondary. Za'Darius Smith should be a huge help to this group on the field and in the locker room. The Browns schedule is very difficult early on but if they can navigate through it he should be poised to make a run in the playoffs come January. Crabbs who also hosts Locked On Dolphins talks how that team is kind of in the same boat as Cleveland as both teams have questions on their quarterbacks that will ultimately decide each teams success this upcoming season.

The Cleveland Browns have bolstered their roster ahead of the 2023 NFL season, while the Cincinnati Bengals have not. The Bengals are widely considered to win a third consecutive AFC north title, that doesn't seem that clear cut. The Browns defense has a new established boss in Jim Schwartz, his track record can not be ignored. They upgraded at edge rusher, defensive tackle, and safety. The only offensive upgrade for the Bengals is Oralando Brown Jr which will weaken their right tackle spot as Jonah Williams has always struggled against Cleveland. On offense the Browns will have a now comfortable Deshaun Watson with a ton of weapons including newcomer Elijah Moore. The Cincinnati defense on paper is worse than it was in 2022 as they try to move on from Jessie Bates. The week one and seventeen match-ups between these two teams should ultimately decide the AFC north.

The Browns defensive line looks very different this season, in large part because of their recent acquisition of pass rusher Za’Darius Smith. That’s where Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe start as they continue their look at potential 2023 storylines. How will Smith and Myles Garrett mesh in Jim Schwartz’s defensive scheme and how will they manage to wreak havoc on NFL quarterbacks? They also discuss expectations for wide receiver Elijah Moore before they dive into the secondary and who will and won’t play in the slot this season. They spend time discussing David Bell’s role in the offense, too, and Juan Thornhill’s impact on the defense. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

For the Cleveland Browns to achieve the lofty goals in 2023 that many feel they can, they are going to need several players to step up. This episode highlights the five biggest in host Jeff Lloyd's opinion. Jedrick Wills, it's been an up and down first three years for Jed. The Browns picked up his fifth year option it's time for him to reward them with a complete season at left tackle. Jerome Ford, there is still a good chance that Andrew Berry signs a veteran running back but until that happens Ford is in line for about 150 touches this upcoming season. Many feel the talent is there but it's blind faith based on his 8 carries last season. Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, there have been plenty of flashes but he's missed a lot of time but this year as Jim Schwartz's dime backer should be the season we all see the players that Cleveland traded up for during the 2020 draft. Alex Wright, the team has been very active in adding to the edge rusher room. It appears for Wright his best opportunities to get meaningful reps will be as a pass rusher in nickel and dime personnel. Deshaun Watson, this team will go as far as he can take them. He had his get acclimated time but this year he is expected to return to top NFL QB form.

As the Cleveland Browns inch closer towards training camp we start to peak ahead to what may be the final 53 man roster. On offense it appears they will carry three quarterbacks. The wide receiver room appears set at six unless one on the younger guys can trump Marquise Goodwin. The running back room is probably the most difficult room to determine as it feels there is most likely a candidate not yet known. Defensively it seems as if the roster will be filled by defensive lineman and secondary players, ideally ten roster spots to both groups. However it's difficult to fell the shape of the defensive tackle room until training camp and preseason show one or two separating from the pack. The Browns have introduced a new dog logo which sparks the debate on the logo itself and the teams ability to market a team without a true logo.

Cleveland Browns fans and media have been nonstop in trying to link DeAndre Hopkins to the team. Another veteran has been recently released who should be the bigger need in Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook. Cook has a history with Brown head coach Kevin Stefanski, has been a proven player in the passing game, and has two teammates from last season already on board for the '23 Browns. A long shot but the Andrew Berry should be in on this veteran even though the free agent running back market is still deep. Jordan Elliott and Harrison Bryant have had the contracts reworked essentially securing their roster spots for the upcoming season. Bryant in small doses has been able to be a factor in the receiving game, which should continue this year. The Elliott deal continues to show that the Browns are one defensive tackle away. The Browns defensive tackle room has a whole bunch of scratch offs and yes Jim Schwartz should improve players it's hard to bank on this room the way it is currently constructed.

PFF's Trevor Sikkema joins the show to talk his preseason positional rankings. Trevor's rankings have Nick Chubb as the top running back in the NFL. Nick has always graded well in the system at PFF but his five yards per carry every year of his career certainly speaks for itself. We should see a different form of Nick Chubb in 2023 as he becomes part of a team that will throw the ball more often. He has that ability and it should be on display this fall. Sikkema feels Deshaun Watson will rebound and be a solid quarterback, highlighting the weapons he has at his disposal. However the DeAndre Hopkins signing could be a tough one to turn down for a team that so badly wants to win. When asked about the Browns draft class Trevor Sikkema loved the Browns haul sighting great value picks in Cameron Mitchell and Luke Wypler both are players with starting futures.

The Cleveland Browns made a bold move prior to the NFL Draft in trading for wide receiver Elijah Moore. Moore was unhappy with the Jets due to bad quarterback play and the fact they couldn't make Moore and Garrett Wilson work as a duo. Moore looks happy and focused thus far while the Browns are using him in every way possible, which our host feels will allow Elijah to lead the Brown sin receptions in 2023. The Offense has looked fabulous thus far in mandatory OTA's, with one writer saying Deshaun Watson had the best practice he'd ever seen. The Defense is getting in it's looks while all the newness works itself out. The defense will need time to grow, with a new defensive boss in Jim Schwartz and several new faces creating harmony will be the ultimate factor. Schwartz's system thus far appears to be easier with less communication than the last system. The theory appears to be let the athletes be athletes.

The Cleveland Browns are dealing with an unfortunate situation this week, while holding mandatory mini-camps there have been several players robbed of their vehicles and more. Credit to the players for making sure these situations didn't get any worse. Hopefully this issue is resolved quickly. Deshaun Watson is lighting up practices as he grows more comfortable with this system and finding a way to feed his now pallet of pass catchers. He's working the route tree ans and showing solid zip and accuracy. Myles Garrett and his two new running mates should be able to bring lots of pass rush the question is how many sacks is this group capable of? Then, some detail on how creative JIm Schwartz could be with his nickel and dime sets.

Lots of fans and media still want to speculate on the possibility of the Cleveland Browns signing DeAndre Hopkins, but there are issues to it. Hopkins set to turn 31 shortly would still command a pretty high salary. The Browns can match that but other things factor in. Hopkins would not get his usual target rate, the Browns wide receiver room is just too deep. The room is currently built for the present, and the future. Bringing in Nuk would dwarf to growth path for the future of the room. Also it would most likely cost one of the young wide outs their roster spot. The signing could work but there is a lot of variables some won't consider. The Browns released veteran offensive tackle Joe Haeg, who was injured for almost all of 2022. There are younger, cheaper players who can fill his spot. The Buffalo Bills just signed more defensive line help showing that teams that feel they are true contenders never rest on their laurels when it comes to defensive line play. Simply put the Browns need more help there.

Looking at stat projections, Deshaun Watson will exceed expectations. Some feel Watson won't find his former form but General Manager Andrew Berry has set him up for big success. The wide receiver room is very deep. The offensive line is stout. Nick Chubb is still Nick Chubb.On the defensive side, JOK is predicted to have a breakout year as the team shifts to playing more defensive lineman and secondary players and less linebackers. This content also highlights on the most glaring need still left, a veteran defensive tackle.The Browns here are predicted to finish just shy of ten wins. For them to exceed this number it will come down to AFC north games.#Browns #DawgpoundBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns have a deep roster but 2023 comes does to Deshaun Watson and his ability to return to his 2020 form. Yes, those numbers may be lofty but the expectations should be very high.Andrew Berry has added five new wide receivers to the roster the last two off-seasons trying to help the Watson trade hit. All bring different skill sets but can be play-makers with a quarterback the caliber of Watson.Nuk Hopkins, is an easy name to link to the Browns but the way the room appears to be constructed you would be building the room for one year and not the future. Bringing in Hopkins stusts the growth of Donovan Peoples-Jones and Elijah Moore and perhaps Cedric Tillman. Andrew Berry has been swinging on veterans but this one that appears to be an easy pass.#Browns #Dawgpound #DeshaunWatsonBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Jackson and Anthony have hit 350 episodes for the podcast and want to thank everyone who has supported the show over the last six years. In this episode, the duo discusses the Browns picking up Jedrick Wills' fifth-year option, the addition of veteran safety Rodney McLeod, and some rumors tying free agents at other vital positions as the offseason progresses forward toward the 2023 season.
It's hard to forget Andrew Berry's first draft as Browns general manager. For one thing, it may have been the most unique draft in the history of the NFL thanks to the COVID pandemic forcing the entire event to go virtual. Beyond that, it was unforgettable because it was the first opportunity to see what the entirely new — at the time — pairing of Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski would do to put its stamp on the roster. In the moment, what happened drew mostly positive reviews. Three years later, the six players who comprised the 2020 draft class for the Browns are among the most recognizable names on the roster, as would be expected from a collection of players who will be in their fourth season in 2023. However, for some, the bloom has come off the rose, so to speak, with the benefit of years of NFL experience. As we continue to grade Berry's moves as general manager, it's time to assess his first draft class now that it's coming up on a contract year for virtually all of them. The one potential exception, though, is where the assessment will begin.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns have signed an old Jim Schwartz friend in Rodaney McLeod. We debate which Cleveland Browns Rookie will have the most impact in 2023. You will want to pay close attention to our analysis of the 2023 NFL Draft on The Locked-On Browns Podcast. If you're a Cleveland Browns fan, then you'll want to watch this video! We're giving you a breakdown of the Browns entire 2023 NFL Draft pick by pick. We think the Browns 3rd round pick Cedric Tillman, 5th round pick Dorian Thompson-Robinson, and 4th round pick Dawan Jones really helped the Browns depth. The Cleveland Browns entered the 2023 NFL Draft on April 27 with eight picks over the three-day draft, but they didn’t make their first pick until the third round Friday night, selecting Tennessee wide receiver Cedric Tillman with the No. 74 overall pick. With their second third-round pick Friday, the Browns took Baylor defensive tackle Siaki Ika at No. 98. The Browns had six picks left for Day 3 and opened Saturday by taking offensive tackle Dawand Jones out of Ohio State with the No. 111 pick. With their second fourth-round pick (No. 126), they took defensive end Isaiah McGuire out of Missouri. In the fifth round, Cleveland added UCLA quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson (No. 140) and Northwestern cornerback Cameron Mitchell (No. 142). The Browns added Ohio State center Luke Wypler in the sixth round and traded the No. 229 pick of the seventh round to Baltimore for a sixth-round pick in 2024.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Jedrick Wills Jr. has two more years to live up to his draft status. The Browns will pick up the fifth-year option on the left tackle’s rookie contract, a league source confirmed to The Chronicle-Telegram on Monday. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler was first to report the news. The deadline is Tuesday. The 2024 option is worth $14.175 million guaranteed based on playing time and a lack of Pro Bowl appearances. Wills was the No. 10 pick in 2020, Andrew Berry’s first selection as a general manager The move was expected, but Berry declined to answer Saturday when asked after the draft. Wills has been inconsistent in his three seasons, but the Browns feel he improved last year and is headed in the right direction. “Jed definitely took strides this year,” coach Kevin Stefanski said after the season. “I think like many young players there are still areas where he can be more consistent, but we definitely thought he took a step forward this season.” The Browns could work on a long-term deal for Wills that would replace the fifth-year option. If they don’t, it’s cheaper than the going rate for the top tackles — $25 million a year for Laremy Tunsil and $23 million for Trent Williams and David Bakhtiari and gives the Browns two more seasons to evaluate if he’s worth an extension. Wills played right tackle in high school in Kentucky and at the University of Alabama but immediately made the switch to the left side with the Browns. His offseason as a rookie was done remotely due to the coronavirus pandemic, but he started 15 regular-season games and two in the playoffs. His second season, in 2021, was sabotaged by an injury. He suffered a high ankle sprain in the opener, tried to play through it, missed two games and was limited when he returned. He missed another two games late in the year with COVID-19. “It was like to the point where after we left the game I couldn’t even walk,” Wills said of the ankle injury in an interview with The Chronicle last offseason. “It was just never the same.” Wills stayed healthy last year and started all 17 games. He had a few of the best games of his career, but the dominance was sporadic and some fans on social media focused on plays where he was beaten or stopped before the play was over. Pro Football Focus ranked him 56th among tackles with a 62.9 grade — 69.6 pass blocking and 55.3 run blocking. “Gotten better, but still could be better,” he said near the end of last season regarding finishing plays. “Just having that want-to, having that drive, putting myself in better positions.” With the option, the Browns will have all five starting linemen under contract through at least 2024.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Jackson and Anthony are back after a long weekend to recap the 2023 NFL Draft and how the Cleveland Browns panned out with their seven draft picks as well as their undrafted free agent class.
The Cleveland Browns have made their selections and the 2023 NFL Draft is now in the books. The first selection on day three was used on Offensive Tackle Dawand Jones, a massive young man with a high ceiling out of Ohio State. He commits Browns got a steal.Isiah McGuire edge rusher out of Mizzou was next in the fold, the Tigers best defender the last two years should slide into the defensive end rotation with long term starter ability.Apparently all the talk between Andrew Berry and draft quarterbacks wasn't smoke after all as they selected Dorian Thompson-Robinson out of UCLA. He appears to be the long term number two behind Deshaun Watson.Cam Mitchell out of Northwestern is a versatile secondary player with a big special teams resume who will be part of Bubba Ventrones's unit to start.Cleveland then double dipped on Ohio State olineman with the selection of Luke Wypler. The center position will see some movement as there is not enough eoom for all of them.#BrownsBetterHelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

The pick of Cedric Tillman at #74 will make for a lively discussion! Do you agree or disagree with the Cleveland Browns decision to draft a WR with their 74th pick in the 2023 NFL Draft? Let us know in the comments below! We're always happy to discuss Cleveland Browns news and rumors with our loyal listener base!The Browns did the same thing for Deshaun Watson that the Ravens did for Lamar Jackson with their first pick in the draft: supplied him with another pass-catcher for an even more explosive offense. With Jackson, it was first-round pick Zay Flowers of Boston College. For Watson, it’s Tennessee big-body receiver Cedric Tillman Jr. (6-foot-3, 215 pounds), whom they picked with the 74th pick in the third round, their first pick in the draft. They acquired the pick when they traded down with the Jets from No. 42 in the second round to acquire receiver Elijah Moore. “I’m fired up to play with Deshaun Watson,” Tillman said. “He’s one of the best quarterbacks in the league and I’m really looking forward getting to all my teammates and new brothers and new coaches and stuff, so I’m excited.”The addition of Tillman, Moore, Marquise Goodwin and tight end Jordan Akins represents a major overhaul of the receiving corps, but Browns assistant GM Catherine Raiche noted that a team can’t have too many good pass-catchers. The son of former Broncos receiver Cedric Tillman, Tillman isn’t worried about getting lost in the crowded receiver room.“I’m looking forward to playing with all of those great receivers,” Tillman, 23, said. “I’m very excited. I’ve watched Amari Cooper since his Alabama days, so having one of the best receivers and one of the best route runners being able to learn from him will be huge in my game. So I look forward to it.” Tillman missed six games last season after undergoing ankle surgery, and was limited to 37 catches for 417 yards and three touchdowns. But when he was healthy in 2021, he caught 64 passes for 1,081 yards and 12 TDs.Browns assistant GM Glenn Cook, who watched two of Tillman’s games in person last season, said the Browns were thrilled to land him where they did. “We feel good about his makeup,” Cook said. “We feel good about what he can do. We believe in his ability to learn the game. He’s a smart young man.” Cook said he has it in him to become a No. 1 receiver in the NFL. That would be good for the Browns, because Cooper’s contract is up after next season. Raiche said the Browns feel good about Tillman’s overall skill set and ability to stretch the field. “It was definitely worth the wait,” Raiche said. “We thought about trading up or down”This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

We take a look at the top three players drafted by the Cleveland Browns since 2010. We'll give you a rundown of each player and discuss what makes them the best choice for the Cleveland Browns in the upcoming NFL draft. It’s no secret to the Browns or their fans that the team hasn’t made many great draft picks, especially in the first round. But recently they have had several successful draft picks that are a major part of the team’s recent upswing. With the 2023 NFL Draft less than a week away, let’s look back at three picks that have had a major role in the teams’ new success:Joel BitonioNot only is Joel Bitonio the longest-tenured Cleveland Brown, but he’s also one of their best players. Bitonio has seen it all in the Dawg Pound and that experience has helped build a positive culture with the current team. Seeing it not work so many times has probably helped Bitonio learn how it can work. He has seen awful team leaders and awful coaches. Like anyone, you can learn lessons from your negative experiences. If Bitonio is on board with something the rest of the team has no other choice but to be on board as well.Nick ChubbNick Chubb has been one of the league’s best running back since he first stepped on the field in 2018. The Cleveland Browns have a good one. Though he originally started as a backup to Carlos Hyde it was evident from his fourth game against the Raiders when he had three carries for 105 yards and a pair of touchdowns that Chubb was a special talent.According to PFF, Nick Chubb is their highest-graded player from the 2018 class with a 94.5 overall career grade. It has been truly fun watching Chubb play in Cleveland and even if the team throws the ball more in 2023 Chubb will be a major factor if the team is a contender this year.Myles GarrettIt’s not going to be a long debate about who the Browns best player is and has been over the last few years. Myles Garrett has been everything the Browns could have imagined when they drafted him first overall in 2017. Even when the rest of the team was awful and losing games they shouldn’t have, Garrett was always a bright spot on the roster. He is the player other teams have to game plan for and he has single-handedly won a few games for the Browns in 2020. Garrett is one of the few Browns drafted players to receive a second contract of substance. He’s one of the faces of the Browns franchise and is going to be a stud on the defense for years to come. Myles Garrett became the Browns all-time sack leader in only his 5 year with the team. BetterHelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Jackson and Anthony discuss the long-awaited trade that sends Aaron Rodgers from the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets, its impact on both franchises and how it becomes another obstacle for the Cleveland Browns in the AFC. The duo then does a first round mock draft during recording and unveils their seven-round mocks and how they would upgrade the Cleveland Browns in this weekend's NFL Draft.
In the latest Locked on Browns Podcast Mock Draft the Browns take Defensive Lineman Karl Brooks at pick #74. Bowling Green defensive lineman Karl Brooks projects as a hybrid-type defensive lineman in the NFL. Brooks has had a tremendous two-year stretch of splash play production for Bowling Green, and he will look to continue that momentum into the pro game—although I do have some questions about how he wins against MAC competition and how he will need to play differently against NFL talent to see comparable results.Originally an unranked recruit, Brooks played his high school football for Sexton High School in Lansing, Michigan. He was a member of Bowling Green’s recruiting class of 2018 after initially committing to Grand Valley State and receiving minimal offers. Bowling Green offered him late in the process and he quickly flipped his commitment.Brooks has some really enjoyable moments on film; he’ll bull-rush tackles or finesse against oversets and come crashing into the pocket to disrupt opposing passers. You wouldn’t necessarily expect such a diverse pass-rush pallet from a bigger guy, but he’s flashing inside counters, spin moves, and all sorts of rush counters with his hands. I like that he is capable of straight bulling soft setting tackles, too—that gives him an element to fall back on as he continues to develop as a player. He’ll need it too, given I don’t think his first step is going to be a consistent threat in the NFL. But he’s going to give himself an opportunity to find snaps on passing downs because he clearly offers a rush plan and he’s a high-motor and effort player who can be relentless in pursuit. He’s a bit of a tweener from a skill set perspective relative to his build and athletic profile, though, and he’s going to have to evolve one way or another to build up his opportunities beyond a designated pass rusher role in the right situation.Brooks’ ability to stack blocks and negotiate the point of attack is in need of further development if he’s going to play on early downs or be a starter someday. I don’t have a great deal of certainty in the functional length that he plays with, and I don’t see the same pop in his hands when linemen are driving toward him as I do when he’s afforded the chance to attack into his rushes and that costs him leverage and ground at the point. Teams who want to run the ball will likely test him early in his career if he’s on the field until he can right the pad-level inconsistencies and find a power posture more often. Even then, his violence and efficiency to disengage and deconstruct need to have more to it.#BrownsBetterHelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

The NFL suspends 5 players for alleged violations of gambling policy. Four players from the Detroit Lions and one from the Washington Commanders were flagged by the league, with three of the players suspended indefinitely. The NFL hit four Detroit Lions and one Washington Commander with heavy suspensions for allegedly violating league gambling policy, officials said Friday. Wide receiver Quintez Cephus and safety C.J. Moore of the Lions, and defensive end Shaka Toney of the Commanders were "suspended indefinitely through at least the conclusion of the 2023 season for betting on NFL games in the 2022 season," according to a league statement.Lions WRs Stanley Berryhill and Jamerson Williams were each banned from the first six games of this upcoming season, though they can still participate in preseason activities with their team, the league said. The Lions cut ties with Cephus and Moore in wake of the suspensions. “These players exhibited decision making that is not consistent with our organizational values and violates league rules," Lions GM Brad Holmes said in a statement. "We have made the decision to part ways with Quintez and C.J. immediately. We are disappointed by the decision making demonstrated by Stanley and Jameson and will work with both players to ensure they understand the severity of these violations and have clarity on the league rules moving forward.” A representative for the players' union, the NFLPA, declined comment on Friday. While the league was short on details, it insisted no games were compromised by the players' alleged wagering."The gambling policy, which is annually reviewed with all NFL personnel, including players, prohibits anyone in the NFL from engaging in any form of gambling in any club or league facility or venue, including the practice facility," according to the league. "A league review uncovered no evidence indicating any inside information was used or that any game was compromised in any way."Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Browns have landed their next big addition to their offense. A league source confirmed to the Beacon Journal that the Browns have acquired receiver Elijah Moore from the New York Jets, along with the Jets' third-round pick, No. 74. New York will receive the Browns' second-round pick, No 42. With the Browns, Moore fits into a receiving corps where Amari Cooper is the obvious No. 1 option, while Donovan Peoples-Jones is coming off of a break-through season in his third year in the NFL. David Bell struggled to get consistent targets as a rookie third-round pick out of Purdue, while injuries hampered the abilities of rookie Michael Woods II and second-year pro Anthony Schwartz to get on the field consistently a year ago.What the Browns have been looking for, though, is a receiver who has the speed to take the top off the defense. Schwartz was drafted with that thought in mind but hasn't produced anywhere close to the expectations. Moore, the 5-foot-10, 178-pound former 2021 second-round pick out of Ole Miss, ended up being in an odd-man-out situation with the Jets. New York's pursuit of quarterback Aaron Rodgers has led it to sign receivers Allen Lazard and, on Wednesday, Mecole Hardman.Those additions, as well as 2022 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson and the re-emergence of Corey Davis last season, all have played a role in Moore being available. The Browns were more than happy to pounce to bring in the young talent in order to provide a change of scenery. Moore missed a Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans in his rookie season due to a concussion, the final five games while being on injured reserve with a quad injury. In the 11 games he played, he was targeted 77 times with 43 catches for 538 yards and five touchdowns.Last season, Moore played in 16 out of a possible 17 games, the exception being when he was inactive for a Week 7 game against the Denver Broncos as a team-disciplinary measure. He would be targeted 65 times with 37 catches for 446 yards and one touchdown. Moore has been utilized both out wide and, in the slot, almost identically, especially last season. He was lined up wide on 385 offensive snaps in 2022, compared to 341 snaps in the slot. As a rookie, Moore was used more out wide, with 347 snaps there compared to 125 snaps in the slot.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Deshaun Watson gives his opinion on the Cleveland Browns and how they can make the playoffs in 2023. Watson armed with even more talent in the passing game feels the Cleveland Browns can reach "the dance."The Browns start their nine-week voluntary offseason program this week. The program will ultimately culminate with a three-day mandatory minicamp June 6-8. That minicamp will include extensive on-field work. This week — the first two weeks, really — is entirely limited to meetings, strength and conditioning work and any injury rehab. The on-field work can start in the three-week second phase of the offseason program, which starts the week of April 31. The program's third phase, the organized team practices or OTAs, will be three-day periods over the final two weeks of May. The Browns actually will shave off a week of the offseason program compared to the rest of the league. Stefanski is doing so due to the early start of training camp because of the team's participation in the Hall of Fame Game on Aug. 6. It may just be the start of the process to get to the season. That doesn't mean there aren't some questions to look at as it gets underway. Yes, that reads "Deshaun Watson's offense" and not "Kevin Stefanski's" or "offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt's." It's not that Stefanski and Van Pelt, among others on staff, haven't spent months since last season ended trying to craft an offense best suited to Watson. It's that point specifically.The Browns have added several new players to that offense. They traded for still-young receiver Elijah Moore and signed veteran receiver Marquise Goodwin, while also signing Jordan Akins, one of Watson's former tight ends. Now, how does all of that start to come together?The biggest change organizationally for the Browns after last year's 7-10 season was at defensive coordinator. Joe Woods was let go and veteran defensive coach Jim Schwartz was hired. Schwartz's mission is simple. The tools are there, at least on paper. Schwartz has All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett, Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward and a handful of intriguing young players from which to start. On top of that, the Browns went out in free agency and made sure to add to that group. Defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson (Vikings), edge rusher Ogbonnia Okoronkwo and two-time Super Bowl champion Juan Thornhill (Chiefs) were among the biggest-ticket additions over the last month. "Like we talked about earlier, you're always looking for more, and I promise you every coach wants more. But, yeah, Jim and the staff, they're excited. We're meeting for a long time right now, just trying to figure out where we want to go with this defense and hammer it away so that April 17 we're ready to go when the players show up."Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

With the 2023 NFL draft now just eight days away, mock drafts are getting last-minute pushes to prepare for what kind of hauls could be on the board. One of those mock drafts was completed by The Athletic’s Dane Brugler, who completed a full seven-round simulation. Even though the Cleveland Browns do not have a first or second round pick, they do have six picks in the middle rounds of the draft to play around with. With defensive tackle, defensive end, linebacker, and wide receiver still lingering, who did the Browns land in Brugler’s simulation? We take a look there next to see who the draft expert mocked to Cleveland. Round 3, pick no. 98: EDGE YaYa Diaby, LouisvilleIt seems unlikely for the Browns to double up on defensive linemen in the 2023 NFL draft, but given the need upfront it would not be overly surprising. Diaby is a bit overhyped compared to my board, but he is an athletic player with a high floor who can come in and at least be a rotational contributor. Given who was available, Alabama defensive tackle Byron Young would be a better pick, but if they go Dexter with their first pick, then the value of Diaby matches here.Round 4, pick no. 126: S Jammie Robinson, Florida StateThis is a stellar pick. As the Browns look to replace Ronnie Harrison in 2023 and potentially look to replace Grant Delpit as he plays out a contract year, there are fewer players with a higher football IQ than Robinson. While his size and athletic profile are subpar, Robinson presents the ability to understand the game of football at a high level from the slot, from the box, and the third level of the defense. For just the cost of the 126th pick in the draft, Robinson would be a home run for the Browns.Round 5, pick no. 140: CB Jakorian Bennett, MarylandThe Browns will never turn down more depth in the secondary, but the selection of the athletic Jakorian Bennett feels redundant unless the team does not feel Robinson could play in the slot. The Browns already have three young and promising cornerbacks on the roster, and the cost of a fifth rounder is not steep, but drafting ahead at a position of deep depth is a bit unwarranted.Round 6, pick no. 190: RB Keaton Mitchell, East CarolinaLook for the Cleveland Browns to address running back depth in the 2023 NFL Draft. Here in the sixth round, Brugler gave the Browns one of the more fun players at the position in this class. While there is reason to believe they may try to take a better one earlier, Keaton Mitchell is a fine sixth round draft pick. While he is not overly elusive, Mitchell is linearly explosive and can burn when he gets into the open field.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Cleveland Browns owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam, Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and Berea Mayor Cyril Kleem, Cuyahoga County Executive Chris Ronayne and others are due to make one or more big announcements starting next week that will include the lakefront football stadium, the Browns’ Berea campus, mixed-use developments around both plus a relocated Shoreway. The announcements will be about changes intended to activate the downtown lakefront by the end of this decade in ways it hasn’t been since the 1930s and to create a year-round fan-friendly village around the team’s suburban headquarters and practice facility, according to two sources familiar with the developments.There are still many unknowns at this early stage. But between now and when the venue formerly known as FirstEnergy Stadium (reverting back to Cleveland Browns Stadium) is rebuilt, many of the team’s and Haslam Sports Group office staff will be temporarily relocated from their Berea headquarters to makeshift offices at the stadium and to remote working.During the renovation of the CrossCountry Mortgage Campus, the Browns offseason training programs may have to be relocated for up to one year. Expansion of the campus will take longer — more than one year and may be carried out in phases depending on financing and city approvals. The expanded campus will reportedly include a new hotel, restaurants, shops, conference facilities. The Haslams and the city have already acquired more than 30 acres of land and demolished many homes and a church for this massive expansion of the Browns’ Berea facilities. It isn’t publicly known yet where the Browns will play, but Columbus is a likely location. The Haslams already have a presence there with their Columbus Crew Major League Soccer club. Its venue, the two-year-old, soccer-specific Lower.com Field, seats only 20,371. When the Browns played their first Orange & Brown Scrimmage on Aug. 7, 2015, they played to 49,734 fans at the Ohio State University’s 102,734-seat Ohio Stadium (aka The Horseshoe). It was the highest attendance for any Browns open practice or Family Day since at least 2005. The Browns would like to regain their fan dominance in Ohio’s capital city, taking attention away from their AFC North Division rivals Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Dawg Pound has essentially lost its advantage in Cleveland. How did this happen and what do the Browns need to do to get it back? Cleveland received their team's name “the Browns” from the man who started the franchise from Day One: Paul Brown. The franchise was a member of the eight-team All-America Football Conference, an NFL rival league from 1946-1949. Before the team had its first game, there was a name-the-team contest. The winner was “Panthers.” But a man named George T. Jones contacted the new Cleveland franchise and told them he owned the rights to the name “Cleveland Panthers” from a team he once owned in 1927 and wanted to be paid a large sum in order to relinquish the rights. Soon thereafter, the Browns were chosen. Perhaps Browns refer to some sort of hunting dogs, like Bluetick Hounds?So, when the new Browns came back into the NFL fold in 1999, the Dawg Pound was designed into the fabric of the new arena. The universal chant that almost every sports team in America uses (that does not display an American Indian tribe) goes something like, “Here we go (insert team name), here we go!” But in the Dawg Pound, the chant is slanted to “Here we go Brownies, here we go! Woof! Woof!” In old Cleveland Municipal Stadium, any Browns player who intercepted the ball for a touchdown would run up that short grass mound to the Pound and be welcomed by the throngs of fans usually met with beer thrown on them, which was meant as part of the celebration and was never considered disrespectful. Items such as bones, batteries, various dog treats and such were reserved for the offense, and of course - the other teams.You would think that a name as timeless as “The Dawg Pound” would be derived from some corrections institution. Perhaps a player who was released from some dangerous prison and was a member of a gang here. And when this former con-now player would hit someone pretty dang hard, folks would say, In 1985, the defensive backfield featured Hanford Dixon, Al Gross, Frank Minnifield and Felix Wright, plus a stellar linebacker crew of Tom Cousineau, Eddie Johnson and Chip Banks. The defensive front had Bob Golic, Carl Hairston and Reggie Camp. During practices, the entire defense had a problem with getting into the backfield to disrupt the passing game as rookie quarterback Bernie Kosar was picking them apart each day. Minnifield and Dixon came up with a game to challenge play during those training camp practices in an attempt to encourage the defense to get to Kosar and stop the deluge of pass completions and then having to read about it in the next day’s paper.BetterHelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey is in more hot water as he gets set to enter just his second season with the Cleveland Browns. Charged with assault on a woman, this adds to the list of issues he has faced since being selected in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. According to Cleveland dot com’s Mary Kay Cabot, the Browns are “aware of the situation and are gathering more information.” It is hard to imagine Winfrey has much of a leash left with the organization after a rocky rookie season that resulted in a suspension, benching and inactive streak, and more. There will be no shock if Winfrey is released by the Browns. Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey was charged Tuesday with misdemeanor assault against a woman he is dating, according to court documents obtained by Fox 26 Houston. Per the Harris County documents, Winfrey is accused of grabbing and pulling the woman in a way that caused bodily injury on Monday. He was arrested at 7 p.m. CT on Monday. Winfrey, 22, is coming off a rookie season with the Browns in which he recorded 22 combined tackles, one tackle for loss and half a sack. The Browns selected him in the fourth round, 108th overall, in the 2022 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-4, 292-pounder entered the draft after a college career that began at Iowa Western Community College and ended at Oklahoma, where he earned second-team All-Big 12 honors in both of his seasons. He had 11 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks in his senior season, as well as the most pressures among Big 12 defensive linemen, per Pro Football Focus. His rookie season saw him play 41% of the Browns' defensive snaps, though Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com reported he was disciplined for an unspecified incident in September.#BrownsBetterHelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

You'll be shocked Who PFF Has the Browns Taking With Their First Pick In The 2023 NFL Draft! In this video, we'll give you all the info on who PFF has the Browns taking with their first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. So be sure to watch to find out who the Browns are going to select with their first pick!Jordan Battle is a senior defensive back that played more than 50 games for the Crimson Tide. On a talented Alabama defense, Battle has emerged as one of the leaders, both vocally and also with his high-level play on the field. Battle is a versatile defensive back that has played both strong and free safety, in one-high or two-high schemes, while also aligning in the nickel position and playing in the box. At each position, Battle has made high-IQ plays and makes plays in both the run game and pass game.Battle appears to have good overall size and length that combined with his fluid movement skills give him a lot of tackling range as a run defender. Battle has the ability to close quickly from distance (10-15 yards) and make technically-sound tackles on runners. Battle also shows to have a physical temperament and an aggressive nature to his game. When he can properly line up the ball carrier, he will seek the big hit. In today’s game where the screen game is an extension of the run game, Battle does a good job of quickly diagnosing developing screen plays and accelerating to disrupt the play with physical play. Battle’s IQ, athleticism, and physicality make him a high-level run defender.In pass coverage, there are many things to like about Battle as a defensive back. Battle appears to have fluid hips that allow for him to make smooth transitions when he has to flip his hips and run with defenders. He also shows to have plus-level speed in that he can carry receivers vertically and run with them stride for stride down the field. But Battle’s best plays come when he can play 10-12 yards off the ball in a flat foot read and play the robber role to read and diagnose route combinations. From this position, Battle can jump routes to make the interception, or he can deliver the big hit to receivers on crossing routes. Battle has sideline-to-sideline speed, which shows he has good range to make plays on the football. Battle moved from taking most of his snaps closer to the line of scrimmage to playing the free safety position, which affected his overall ball production, but the athletic ability is still present in Battle’s game. #BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns Michael Woods suffered a ruptured achilles hell during workouts with Quarterback Deshaun Watson. Woods in his second year was one of many vying for the possible spot in the wise receiver room for 2023. Woods has been diligent in his workouts and the team featured he and Alex Wright in their Youtube series "Unleashed." Woods could miss all of the season but could face an easier path to making the roster in '24 than he would have in this year.The room now has Anthony Schwartz, Daylen Baldwin, and Jaelon Darden competing for a spot but with Andrew Berry already bringing in draft eligible wide receivers does this now put the team in a spot where they draft not one, but two at the position.Cleveland is interested in the Quarterback class having already had one in for a visit and another one coming up. Kellen Mond is rumored to be liked but has not taken any live reps as of yet with this team. If they can get a rookie signal caller who has lengthy collegiate experience it could give that rookie a path to the QB3 job.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns are bringing in veteran defensive tackle Al Woods for a visit in what could be the final piece of the free agent puzzle. If woods plays in 2023 it would be his 14th Nfl season. Has plenty of experience as a nose and the size to do it at 6'4 330 lbs. His locker room reputation has been solid over the years having played for two different teams more than once. He would be the perfect late signing to pair with Dalvin Tomlinson.The Browns are hosting linebacker Trenton Simpson for a official Top 30 visit, so if you're meeting with the top linebacker in the draft you most likely are taking a linebacker in the draft.The Browns hosted wide receiver Tank Dell which seems to throw off their normal draft process thinking due to Dell's age. The are also hosting wide receiver Jalin Hyatt. With Hyatt and Simpson in on visit's it seems to say that Berry could seriously be looking to trade up in this draft as both players are considered top 45 talents. So they could move picks, or a rostered player to rise into the second round.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Let's be honest, the key to the Browns' success in 2023 lies mostly in whether Deshaun Watson plays like he did prior to the Browns trading for him. In his six games last season, he showed some flashes of the old Watson but mostly looked like a quarterback playing a truncated season after missing 700 days.How close will he get to the Watson of old in 2023? Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe discuss that question and more in today's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.They also get into Nick Chubb's usage and what the offense could look like around him this coming season before discussing the linebacker position and how they try to disconnect when they're on vacation.Want to get involved in Football Insider?

The Cleveland Browns have a star running back in Nick Chubb but as of now this is the least proven running back room in Chubb's tenure in Berea. The in-house options offer some appeal in Jerome Ford but he saw such limited action no true verdict could be determined.NFL Free agency is never going to offer answers as far as the position is concerned but there could be some value in a dual threat back such as Jet McKinnon. After that you're looking at guys who would to camp to compete, nothing guaranteed.Now the 2023 NFL Draft offers several options for Andrew Berry to upgrade the room and build it towards the though of life without Nick Chubb. Tank Bigsby comes in as a guy who can be the full time running back one day in the dawg pound. Devon Achane offers a home run threat who could find plenty of running lanes while coverage is focused on all the talented receiving threats. Kenny McIntosh comes in with a championship pedigree and does it all at the position. Sean Tucker's health is a question but his game is not, his medical re-check is crucial.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

In this episode of the Locked On Browns Podcast we discuss Donovan Peoples-Jones potential to have a breakout year in 2023. DPJ had a career year last year and looks to improve on those numbers with the help of QB Deshaun Watson. As NFL free agency rages on, or more appropriately rolls on like a slow-moving babbling brook, the Cleveland Browns have made a number of moves to improve their defense while retaining Ethan Pocic as their starting center on offense.One move that many are wondering about is whether the team will add another receiver to their mix. Amari Cooper was a big addition last year with Donovan Peoples-Jones playing the second receiver role well. Finding a third receiver is still something fans and media would like to see. Whether the Browns value that as much is yet to be determined. While Cooper has been well-paid throughout his career, as a sixth-round selection Peoples-Jones is still waiting for that to happen. He is scheduled for free agency at the end of the 2023 NFL season unless Cleveland gets an extension done with him before then. In 2022, DPJ earned just under $900,000. The NFL announced the top 25 players who earned performance-based based distributions for 2022. PBP is described by the league as:Under the Performance-Based Pay program, a fund is created and used as a supplemental form of player compensation based on a comparison of playing time to salary. Players become eligible to receive a bonus distribution in any regular season in which they play at least one official down. In general, players with higher playtime percentages and lower salaries benefit most from the pool. Last year, Peoples-Jones got the 11th largest bonus in the NFL at $717,642. Marcus Epps of the Philadelphia Eagles topped the list with $880,354. The bonuses do not impact teams’ salary cap numbers at all. The NFL and NFLPA wanted to put in place a way to benefit underpaid players, especially those on rookie contracts or veterans generally later in their careers.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

In this episode, we'll take a look at the latest news in the NFL, and specifically the Cleveland Browns and Free Agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. A video of OBJ and Browns Head Coach Kevin Stefanski embracing at the NFL Owners Meeting in Arizona surfaced late yesterday on Twitter. OBJ reportedly met with the Jets, Ravens, and Rams. According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, Beckham and the Browns will not be reuniting in 2023. The Browns are happy with their acquisitions of Elijah Moore and Marquise Goodwin as their WR room in general. The video of OBJ and Stefanski caused a lot of confusion and speculation in the Browns community. We'll take a look at the latest news and see what it all means. Don't miss our latest video, where we explore Odell Beckham Jr.'s reported meeting with the Cleveland Browns coaching staff and see what it all means. Subscribe now to keep up to date with all the NFL news!Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. still does not know where he will play in 2023, but he is certainly making his presence known to all 32 clubs. The 30-year-old was seen talking with coaches and owners at the NFL owners meeting in Arizona on Tuesday. Beckham lives in the state, so why not stop by and chat with your possible future bosses? Beckham made his rounds to those at the meeting, but when talking to the media, he would not give much away on where he wants to go.Beckham declined to speak to the media, just saying, "All love," when he was asked about the New York Jets (per SNYtv). His agent, Zeke Sandhu, also did not give much away, saying they were just there to "get some sun" (per Cleveland.com). The free agent was seen speaking to teams that have shown interest, as well as those who have said they will not be signing Beckham. Beckham met with the Baltimore Ravens and said (per CBS Sports' Josina Anderson), "The love was there, good meeting…(Lot of) people and teams I bumped into."The wide receiver and Sandhu had a lengthy conversation with Jets general manager Joe Douglas and coach Robert Saleh (per the New York Daily News). With future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers making his claim that he intends to play for the Jets next season, the team could draw interest from Beckham. Beckham was also seen greeting Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, but his old team is not interested in pursuing him (per Cleveland.com).Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

In this video, we're going to show you how the Browns crushed Lamar Jackson and the Ravens WITHOUT even stepping on the field! Lamar Jackson has demanded a trade and many believe it's solely because for the $230 Million dollars guaranteed contract the Browns gave Deshaun Watson. If you're a fan of the NFL, then you'll want to watch this video! The next step in the saga involving the Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson was taken Monday, when Jackson revealed he requested a trade out of Baltimore on March 2. In a tweet, the former NFL MVP said the Ravens, who previously placed the nonexclusive franchise tag on Jackson, have "not been interested in meeting my value."Speaking at the NFL's annual league meeting in Phoenix on Monday, Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said "I don't know what direction it's going to go" in regard to the negotiations, and also said of Jackson: "That's the guy I want to see be our quarterback." Jackson -- who is reportedly seeking a long-term contract with a guarantee in the neighborhood of the $230 million the Cleveland Browns gave Deshaun Watson last year -- had the nonexclusive franchise tag placed upon him by the Ravens on March 7. The tag allows Jackson to negotiate with other teams.What kind of leverage does Jackson have to force a trade?Jackson's tweet -- which was perfectly timed to the start of Harbaugh's media session at the league meetings -- is the first public indication that he wants out of Baltimore and might be a message that he doesn't want the Ravens to match an offer sheet to keep him. It is notable that, since Eric DeCosta took over as Ravens general manager, the team has dealt players who have requested a trade, including offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr., and wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown. DeCosta has said in the past that he doesn't want players who don't want to be in Baltimore.What is the current market for a Jackson trade? Which teams could be interested?It's been 20 days since the Ravens placed the nonexclusive franchise tag on Jackson, and no team has signed him to an offer sheet. Jackson would certainly upgrade the quarterback situations for the Indianapolis Colts, Washington Commanders and Atlanta Falcons. There has been speculation that the Tennessee Titans or San Francisco 49ers might get in the mix. But there are multiple factors -- the compensation to acquire Jackson (two first-round picks), Jackson's asking price (reportedly a Deshaun Watson-like deal) and the threat of the Ravens matching any offer -- that might have led to no team publicly pursuing him. Teams have until July 17 to sign Jackson to a multi-year offer sheet.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

In this video, we'll be taking a look at how Elijah Moore and Marquise Goodwin have transformed the wide receiver room in Cleveland. Elijah Moore was acquired in a trade with the New York Jets this offseason and will be vital part of Cleveland's offense in 2023. Marquise Goodwin is a solid veteran that was signed as a free agent this offseason. He last played with the Seattle Seahawks in 2022. This video will explore their impact on the Cleveland Browns and highlight the reasons why Cleveland were interested in acquiring them. With their contributions, the Browns should have a much improved wide receiving unit in 2023! As the Cleveland Browns saw their passing offense finish in the bottom-quarter of the league, they made a concerted effort to get more explosive this offseason. By both trading for third-year wide receiver Elijah Moore and signing veteran speedster Marquise Goodwin, the Browns have taken a step forward in that department. Now with a crowded wide receiver room, what is the outlook of the wide receiver position for the Browns in 2023 and beyond? We analyze here the depth of the position, the versatility, the roles that are filled, and what still might be needed at the wide receiver position in Cleveland. As Elijah Moore comes to Cleveland, there is the idea that he is going to be strictly a slot receiver, but that has never been the case in his career. In 2022 with the Jets, Moore’s reps were split 50/50 out wide and in the slot. Even in 2021, his rookie season, Moore played just 28 percent of his snaps from the slot.With the route running savvy and ability to win off the line of scrimmage, Moore has the skillset to predominantly carve up defensive backs from Z looks more often than in the slot. And this gives the Browns a great deal of alignment versatility to play with. With Moore and Goodwin now added to the roster (and especially Moore), the Browns now have the luxury of moving both Amari Cooper and Donovan Peoples-Jones around as well. As Cooper ages a bit, the Browns can move him into the slot and exploit mismatches with him inside. personnel and run out of the shotgun. And just because Moore has the skillset of a Z, he does have a nice volume of snaps in the slot too. Last year’s third rounder could also play in the slot as well in four-wide sets and even in some three-wide packages offensively. In two wide receiver sets the Browns could trot out their two most lethal in Cooper and Moore, or they could trot out Peoples-Jones and Cooper. In three wide receiver sets, the Browns could throw speed on the field with Moore and Goodwin with Cooper, or they could throw their three best with Cooper, Moore, and Peoples-Jones.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns have acquired wide receiver Elijah Moore from the New York Jets! The Browns have landed their next big addition to their offense. A league source confirmed to the Beacon Journal the Browns have acquired receiver Elijah Moore from the New York Jets, along with the Jets' third-round pick, No. 74. New York will receive the Browns' second-round pick, No 42. With the Browns, Moore fits into a receiving corps where Amari Cooper is the obvious No. 1 option, while Donovan Peoples-Jones is coming off of a break-through season in his third year in the NFL. David Bell struggled to get consistent targets as a rookie third-round pick out of Purdue, while injuries hampered the abilities of rookie Michael Woods II and second-year pro Anthony Schwartz to get on the field consistently a year ago. What the Browns have been looking for, though, is a receiver who has the speed to take the top off the defense. Schwartz was drafted with that thought in mind, but hasn't produced anywhere close to the expectations. Moore, the 5-foot-10, 178-pound former 2021 second-round pick out of Ole Miss, ended up being in an odd-man-out situation with the Jets. New York's pursuit of quarterback Aaron Rodgers has led it to sign receivers Allen Lazard and, on Wednesday, Mecole Hardman. Those additions, as well as 2022 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson and the re-emergence of Corey Davis last season, all have played a role in Moore being available. The Browns were more than happy to pounce to bring in the young talent in order to provide a change of scenery. Moore missed a Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans in his rookie season due to a concussion, the final five games while being on injured reserve with a quad injury. In the 11 games he did play, he was targeted 77 times with 43 catches for 538 yards and five touchdowns. Last season, Moore played in 16 out of a possible 17 games, the exception being when he was inactive for a Week 7 game against the Denver Broncos as a team-disciplinary measure. He would be targeted 65 times with 37 catches for 446 yards and one touchdowns. Moore has been utilized both out wide and in the slot almost identically, especially last season. He was lined up wide on 385 offensive snaps in 2022, compared to 341 snaps in the slot.As a rookie, Moore was used more out wide, with 347 snaps there compared to 125 snaps in the slot.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Browns finally gave a little free agency love to the offensive side of the ball. After signing three defensive tackles and one defensive end in the first few days of free agency, the Browns gave Deshaun Watson a new weapon in his former Texans’ tight end Jordan Akins. They signed Akins, 30, to a two-deal worth up to $5.2 million. His agent, David Canter, announced the signing Friday afternoon after Akins paid a free agent visit to Cleveland. A third-round pick of the Texans in 2018 out of Central Florida and the fifth tight end drafted that year, Akins spent four seasons in Houston with Watson, including 2021 when Watson sat out the year after asking to be traded and with civil suits piling up.vAkins (6-foot-4, 243 pounds) signed a one-year deal with the Giants in April of last year, but was released in August and was signed to the Texans’ practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster on Oct. 12 and had the best season of his career with 37 catches for 495 yards and a career-high five TDs, which tied the total production of Browns tight ends David Njoku (four) and Harrison Bryant (one). Akins provides Watson with another red zone and end zone threat, and someone who established a nose for the end zone last season. In the Browns victory over the Texans on Dec. 4, he caught three passes for 21 yards, and he finished the season strong, with two TD catches in a victory over the Colts. According to Pro Football Focus, Akins was the 9th best tight end in the NFL in 2022 with a 72.4 grade, two notches behind Njoku (73.7.). Bryant was 32nd at 59.3. Akins was the sixth new free agent signed by the Browns in this cycle. The others were defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo, defensive tackles Dalvin Tomlinson, Maurice Hurst and Trysten Hill, and safety Juan Thornhill. The Browns have also re-signed three of their own free agents in cornerback A.J. Green, center Ethan Pocic and linebacker Sione Takitaki.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Former UVA safety and two-time Super Bowl Champion Juan Thornhill is headed to the Cleveland Browns out of free agency. Former Virginia safety and two-time Super Bowl Champion Juan Thornhill has a new home in the National Football League. After spending the first four seasons of his professional career with the Kansas City Chiefs, Thornhill signed a three-year, $21 million contract to join the Cleveland Browns, as first reported on Wednesday by the NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Two-time Super Bowl winner Juan Thornhill agreed to terms with the #Browns on a three-year, $21 million contract with $14 million fully guaranteed at signing over the first two years, per sources. Thornhill started 52 games for the Kansas City Chiefs and is a big addition for the Cleveland Browns. After an impressive career as a defensive back for the UVA football program, the Altavista, Virginia native was selected by the Chiefs with the 63rd overall pick in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Thornhill had an excellent rookie season with three interceptions, but tore his left ACL late in the year and watched from the sidelines as the Chiefs beat the 49ers in Super Bowl LIV. Kansas City reached the Super Bowl the next season and the AFC Championship Game the year after that, but came up short of winning it all. This season, the Chiefs reached the mountaintop again and Juan Thornhill played a pivotal role, recording five tackles and a pass breakup in Kansas City's 38-35 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles to win Super Bowl LVII, earning Thornhill his second Super Bowl ring. Thornhill was brilliant in the entire postseason run for the Chiefs, grading at 90.5 on Pro Football Focus over his final five games, the top mark in the NFL among safeties during that period. In 65 total appearances and 52 starts over four seasons with the Chiefs, Thornhill recorded eight interceptions, one pick-six, 20 passes defended, one sack, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, five tackles for loss, and 234 total tackles. In 2022, Thornhill had three interceptions, nine passes defended and 71 tackles. #BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Cleveland Browns made their first splash to upgrade their defensive line in NFL free agency by landing the pressure machine in defensive end Ogbonnia Okoronkwo on a three-year deal that can be worth up to $22 million. As they let Jadeveon Clowney walk this offseason following his tumultuous departure from the team, the Browns now have their running mate opposite of Myles Garrett. Here we take a look at the signing, how Okoronkwo fits in Jim Schwartz’s defense, the financial side of the deal, and more to grade out the signing. Spoiler alert: this is a pretty great deal between the Browns and Okoronkwo. While Okoronkwo only managed five sacks this past season with the Texans, he managed to hit opposing quarterbacks an additional 11 times as well. A step further, Okoronkwo racked up pressures at the same rate as Garrett and Micah Parsons of the Dallas Cowboys. According to PFF, he graded out with a pass rushing grade of 81.9 for the Texans in 2022. While he did not grade out exceptionally as a run blocker, Okoronkwo’s tape shows a player who is not afraid to initiate contact and set a strong edge. The pass rushing numbers are eye-popping even if the sacks have not come to fruition, and his run defense is fine at worst. The Browns were able to sign a player who gets after the quarterback as much as Garrett and Parsons for the price of just $6.3 million per year, capping out at potentially $22 million throughout his three-year deal. Okoronkwo’s base deal is for $19 million over three years with the Browns. By all means, this is a mid-to-low-end contract financially, and the ceiling of what Okoronkwo can be with the Browns far exceeds that. Do not be surprised if the Browns and Okoronkwo are speaking again next offseason about a new deal after his production opposite Garrett skyrockets.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The Browns offseason, like many NFL teams, comes with annual rumors of players being shipped away, coaches being fired, and stars joining the roster to turn the team around and help push Cleveland to the ever-elusive Super Bowl. This year has been no different, and while there are some rumors circulating the fan base that do hold some weight, others are as far-fetched and not-happening as they come. First, addressing the rumors that have found their way to Twitter and subsequently other sites: Nick Chubb being on the trade block and the team shifting away from running the ball frequently. The rumor took off after reports from the NFL Combine suggested the Browns intend to shift their offensive mentality and go pass-heavy with quarterback Deshaun Watson, whom they hope to get back to his elite form this season after a rust-shaking return in 2022 League sources have indicated the Browns do have a desire to pass more — at least more efficiently, with Watson this season. If Watson can bounce back this year, it would not only be the goal of the Browns, it would behoove them to allow Watson to rip on a daily basis. But part of what makes any offense so dangerous, as head coach Kevin Stefanski outlined way back at his arrival in Cleveland in 2020, is a marriage of a strong pass and run game, and there have been discussions on how to evolve the run game further, mixing up runs out of the gun with other methods to keep defenses on their toes. Trading Chubb takes you out of that picture completely. Sure, you have running back Jerome Ford who showed plenty of promise in his rookie season, but Chubb is one of one—and the Browns know it. Chubb is a valued member of the team and one they plan to keep around this season. His contract sets him up to become a free agent in 2025, and trading him this year would only give the Browns at most a $10 million cap savings while likely not getting enough of a return in terms of draft picks for a 27-year-old running back (yes, even one-of-one Chubb).The central theme around the Chubb trade rumor is clearing cap space for the Browns to be more aggressive in free agency. With the Browns currently $13 million over the cap, general manager Andrew Berry will need to do that, but the contract savant has other methods of getting that done.First, restructuring Watson's mega contract will be top of mind. The restructure doesn't say they regret the $230 million guaranteed deal they penned. It's a numbers game to make the most of the money available to spend to set the roster up for success. During the NFL Combine, Berry spoke to the possibility of restructuring Watson's contract this season.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Former Tennessee edge rusher Byron Young has begun testing at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, and his numbers have been top-tier. In the all-important 40-yard dash, Young ran a 4.48, putting him second among all edge rushers and defensive ends thus far, trailing just Georgia’s Nolan Smith, who ran a 4.44. Young’s 10-yard split of 1.62 seconds puts him in fourth place in the position. Young’s vertical was measured at 38 inches, again putting him second behind Smith so far. In the last of his completed tests so far, Byron Young measured an 11-foot broad jump, putting him atop the edge and defensive end leaderboard. Young still needs to do his three-cone drill, shuttle, and bench press, but his numbers so far, especially when put up against others at the position who have tested, are very encouraging. Byron Young is a projected mid-round pick, but his combine results could help to move that projection in a positive direction. Wednesday at his combine press conference, Young shouted out the Tennessee program, especially Defensive Line Coach Rodney Garner. In two years at Tennessee, Young racked up 12.5 sacks and 23.5 tackles-for-loss, earning an All-SEC First Team coaches’ selection in 2022.Learn more about your ad choices.

University of Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter, who was booked and released Wednesday night on reckless driving and racing charges, returned to Indianapolis on Thursday to finish his interviews, measurements and other activities at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source.Carter did not take the field to work out for NFL scouts on Thursday, but he was seen on the sidelines in support of the defensive lineman showcasing themselves at Lucas Oil Stadium.One of the top prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft, Carter was the subject of arrest warrants in Athens, Georgia, as a result of an ongoing investigation into a fatal crash on Jan. 15, the Athens-Clarke County Police Department announced on Wednesday.Carter, 21, was booked at 11:33 p.m. ET and released at 11:49 p.m. Wednesday night after paying a $4,000 bond for the two misdemeanor charges.Carter released a statement on Wednesday before turning himself in, saying that he intended to return to Athens "to answer the misdemeanor charges against me and to make certain that the complete and accurate truth is presented." "This morning I received a telephone call from the Athens Georgia Police Department informing me that two misdemeanor warrants have been issued against me for reckless driving and racing," Carter said. "Numerous media reports also have circulated this morning concerning the tragic events of Jan. 15, 2023."The news of the arrest warrants secured for Carter came hours after a report published by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday that Carter was present at the scene of the crash, left the scene before officers arrived and then gave "shifting accounts of the wreck as an Athens police officer questioned him about whether he had been racing the car that crashed."Carter, who declared for the NFL draft on Jan. 10, was not present for his scheduled news conference on Wednesday morning at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. NFL senior vice president of football and international communications Michael Signora told media assembled at Carter's assigned podium that Carter would not be speaking at the event on Wednesday.

Browns rookie Alex Wright has learned a lot from two of his pass rushing idols this year in teammates Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney. That remains true even now, as Clowney appears to be on his way out in Cleveland. The rookie has played a significant number of snaps for Cleveland from the jump. He’s played 494 total defensive snaps -- ironically, exactly the same number as Clowney -- and has appeared in all 16 games for the Browns. He’s proved to be an effective weapon on the line when it comes to using his 6-foot-5 frame to bat down balls, something he never got a chance to do in college. He’s got a team-high five this season, which also ties him for third-most among all NFL edge rushers. That’s been the highlight of his game, while rushing opposing quarterbacks has been a tough adjustment compared to the college level. He has no sacks this year, and only 10 pressures -- all QB hurries. Understandably, improving in that aspect of his game is the No. 1 task on his offseason checklist. Perrion Winfrey quietly may have shown glimpses of what he can be in the future for the Cleveland Browns during his rookie year. Now that the season is over, All-Rookie teams are here. Winfrey was named first-team defense on the All-Rookie team put together by SportsInfoSolutions. Winfrey missed four games as a rookie and had a rough acclimation period at times at becoming a professional. Playing in 41 percent of the defensive snaps, Winfrey made 22 tackles, one tackle for a loss, and a half sack. The Browns have a lot of questions at defensive tackle with not a lot of answers. If Winfrey can build off of year one, perhaps it could bode well for both sides.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Cleveland Browns news and rumors today are buzzing after Greg Newsome’s Tweet in which he closed the door on planning in the slot, nickel position again in 2023 after a Browns fan asked him on Twitter. Could we see a Greg Newsome trade as a result? The Browns roster features a lot of depth at cornerback with Denzel Ward and Martin Emerson. So, Browns trade rumors are back as a result this Thursday. Browns NFL Draft rumors are starting to pick up with the 2023 NFL Draft less than 50 days away. Might Browns GM Andrew Berry look to trade one of his 2nd round picks away and acquire a proven player like DeForest Buckner or Jerry Jeudy? Locked On Browns Podcast hosts Garrett Bush and Jeff Lloyd Peterson discuss the viability of trading the former 1st round pick to Denver for Jerry Jeudy.After trading for Seattle Seahawks all-time-great quarterback Russell Wilson in the offseason, the Denver Broncos were poised for a big year. After 18 weeks the Broncos finished with a 5-12 record and fired head coach Nathaniel Hackett after his first year in Denver. Wilson had the worst season of his career, finishing with 16 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions. Denver finished last in the NFL in points per game (16.9), but finished in the top half in points allowed per game (21.1). Amid all the offensive blunders, wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had the best season of his young three-year career. The 2020 15th overall pick finished the season with 67 receptions for 972 yards and six touchdowns (all career highs). Jeudy was arguably the best Crimson Tide product in weeks 14 and 18. There are several teams that could use a new wide receiver, but one that sticks out is the Baltimore Ravens. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has rejected some of the highest offers in league history from Baltimore, but an up-and-coming receiver might be all he needs to accept one.Baltimore's receiving talent has been subpar (besides All-Pro tight end Mark Andrews) since Jackson took over under center. Jeudy's numbers this season have been better than nearly every wide receiver in Baltimore the past few years. Jackson is known to be one of, if not the best scramblers of all time. The addition of a route-running technician like Jeudy could make him an even more elite passer and give him his second NFL MVP trophy.Learn more about your ad choices.

In this video, we're going to take a look at what surprising spot the Browns landed in ESPN's 2023 NFL Power Rankings! After a tough season in which they missed the playoffs, the Browns managed to fall to 19th in the rankings in ESPN's 2023 NFL Power Rankings. This surprising spot puts them below the Steelers, Ravens, and Bengals in the AFC North. So what does this mean for the Browns? We'll discuss all of the news and rumors surrounding the team in this update video of the Locked on Browns Podcast! Keep an eye out for more videos about the Browns in the coming weeks! The dust from the 2022 NFL season has not settled yet following last night’s Super Bowl but many are ready to turn the page to the 2023 NFL season. Two head coaches need to be hired, a bunch of other coaches need to move around the league and then we get to player movement. Needless to say, where teams are the day after the last Super Bowl and where they are at the start of the following season are generally quite different. That doesn’t mean it isn’t interesting to at least discuss next year at this point but it is important to note.ESPN just completed their very early 2023 power rankings. In many ways, their power rankings are very similar to the final records of last season with some tweaks. The Cleveland Browns are ranked 19th with the obvious key being around QB Deshaun Watson. Only one team that finished 2022 with more than the Browns seven victories is ranked below them, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who just lost Tom Brady. Cleveland is also the highest-ranked team that won seven or fewer games last year. The AFC North is also interesting to look at with the Pittsburgh Steelers up at #14, the Baltimore Ravens at #11 (with lots of questions about Lamar Jackson) and the Cincinnati Bengals 4th in the league. Thankfully for the Browns, a lot will change between now and the start of the season and, which is always true, power rankings do not mean a lot. It will be interesting to compare these rankings to those following free agency and the draft to see how the team’s moves impact how they are seen by some in the national media.Learn more about your ad choices.

Browns fans found themselves watching another Super Bowl without their team on Sunday night, but there is some hope if Deshaun Watson plays like he's capable of playing in 2023 and beyond.How close are the Browns to the two teams we watched in Super Bowl LVII? It's one of the questions Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe answered in a Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast.Mary Kay also answered questions about what the Browns can steal from the Eagles' quarterback run game, what's going to happen with Browns assistant coaches, what she'll remember from this Super Bowl and more.Want to get involved in Football Insider?

The Browns had just put up the best half of offense they would during Deshaun Watson's six games as the starting quarterback. Amari Cooper, who had been talking about seeing "fireworks" from the offense all season, was asked if the show had finally started. Cooper, in his understated yet matter-of-fact way, wasn't ready to brag about pyrotechnics. "Nah, I don't think so," Cooper said after the Browns scored three second-half touchdowns in a Week 17 win at Washington. "Trust me. Especially not with me, like trust me. Nah, not yet. We're going to get there, though." Those fireworks never transpired for the Browns, at least with Watson. The burning question as the offseason passes the one-week mark remains, however: Will they show up in September when the Browns return to the field? It's the $230-million question that hangs daily over the Browns, now that they've taken care of the most immediate concern of hiring Jim Schwartz as their next defensive coordinator. It's the reason why they mortgaged their near future in draft capital and sacrificed public relations some 10 months ago to swing a trade with the Houston Texans to bring Watson to Cleveland. The return on that investment was never going to be fully judged based upon the small sample size produced in Watson's first season with the Browns. Once his suspension by the NFL due to the more than two dozen allegations of sexual assault and sexual misconduct during massage appointments was raised from six games to 11 through a settlement, that became almost a foregone conclusion.However, there's no question the Watson the Browns saw in the final six games of the season did not produce the "fireworks" of which Cooper spoke. He completed just 58.2% of his 170 pass attempts for 1,102 yards with seven touchdowns and five interceptions.“Of course, I didn't meet the expectations," Watson said a day after the season ended. "Of course, we wanted to try to find our way into the playoffs and have extended games and opportunity to clinch the division, all these different things. But as far as just being able to play football again, get out there and knock some rust off, have some ups, have some downs, have some in-betweens and kind of really get the feel of how we want to operate as an offense and what we want to look forward to as a Cleveland Brown, I definitely did that." It was beyond just Watson, though, where the offense seemed to stagnate in those final six games. The Browns went from averaging 23.9 points, 376.9 total yards and 222.5 passing yards a game through the first 11 games, to 16.3 points, 298 total yards and 166 passing yards a game over the final six games. Again, not "fireworks." In fact, they were barely sparklers. No one understands that better than the one whose job may be most on the line next season if those numbers don't significantly improve. Now that coach Kevin Stefanski is able to turn his attention away from remaking the defensive staff, that attention will fully go toward answering the riddle of what is the right scheme for the Browns with Watson at the controls. “I think that is part of this offseason ... making sure that we are putting all of those things together," Stefanski said at an end-of-the-year news conference. "Obviously, having the true offseason with Deshaun and starting the season with him is I think will be obviously a big deal as it relates to that. We want to make sure that we are scoring points in any which way we can. We want to give our guys a chance to play fast.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It's official – Joe Thomas has been voted into the NFL Hall of Fame! It's an honor Cleveland always knew was coming for Thomas, who assembled one of the most decorated resumes of any left tackle in NFL history in an 11-year career with the Browns. He was voted to 10 Pro Bowls and is the only offensive lineman in league history to be named to 10 consecutive Pro Bowls to start a career. He also earned eight All-Pro honors, six of them as a first-team selection, and totaled them all even though the Browns shuffled through 20 different starting quarterbacks and struggled to build a roster capable of finding consistent success during his career.But Thomas never quit on the Browns, as evidenced by his most improbable career achievement. But Thomas never quit on the Browns, as evidenced by his most improbable career achievement. For 10,363 consecutive snaps — spanning from his first NFL snap in 2007 to his last after suffering an injury during the 2017 season — Thomas never left the field. His snap streak is believed to be the longest by any player in NFL history, and Thomas kept it alive during his entire career by playing through injuries and enduring the constant heartbreak of losing seasons.The Browns were also part of his identity. He couldn't imagine ever leaving the team that drafted him with the third overall pick in 2007 as Thomas and his father were fishing on a boat in Lake Michigan. He had no desire to leave a fanbase that never took his talents for granted at a position where it's often easy to do so.#browns #brownsnews #nfl #nflnews #nflfootball #clevelandbrownsBlueNileAt Blue Nile, you can find the perfect piece of jewelry for life’s special moments—or even create the custom engagement ring of her dreams!

The Cleveland Browns have a wealth of depth at the cornerback position, and as a result, they played Greg Newsome II in the slot to get Martin Emerson Jr. on the field in nickel and dime sets. It appears, however, that Newsome is not a fan of playing inside and would like to move back outside in 2023 under new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz.Responding to a highlight video of his performance against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Newsome II left just a one-word quip of “outside.” The problem? The Browns have three talented cornerbacks, and one would get phased out if they were to bring on a full-time nickel. This means either Newsome II or Emerson could be flipped for a pick or another position of need, or the Browns could let them battle it out for reps. It will be an interesting offseason.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Ethan Pocic played well for the Browns in a pinch and then fought back from injury in an attempt to finish the season.Now he's hoping to stay in Cleveland despite his one-year contract being scheduled to expire in March.“That would be a dream come true, man. That would be awesome,” Pocic told the Beacon Journal on Thursday. “So we'll see what happens. That would be a dream come true, though.”When the Browns signed Pocic in March, they secured a contingency plan they wound up needing. Nick Harris served as the first-string center in the offseason, yet Pocic became the man in the middle after Harris suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Aug. 12 preseason opener.ProFootballFocus.com has Pocic ranked third among the 39 qualifying centers it has graded this season, and the Browns think highly of him, too. A fifth-round draft pick in 2020 with just two regular-season starts, Harris remains unproven at the NFL level.“What a great job [Pocic] has done really stepping in when Nick got hurt right away and never really missed a beat with him,” Browns offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said. “A great job of the guys upstairs [in the front office] getting him into the building.”Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett celebrates with center Ethan Pocic (55) after a second-half TD by Amari Cooper against the Bengals, Monday, Oct. 31, 2022, in Cleveland.A former Seattle Seahawks starter, Pocic is slated to become an unrestricted free agent at 4 p.m., March 15.“I would think we would [want to re-sign him],” Van Pelt said. “I don’t make those decisions, but I don’t think there is anything in his play this year that we would say we wouldn’t want to see him again next year.” Pocic, 27, explained earlier this season once he realized free agency would not yield a lucrative contract for him this past spring, he wanted to sign with the Browns because of their coaching staff and roster. His one-year deal is worth a veteran minimum base salary of $1.035 million, according to an NFL Players Association database, plus a $152,500 signing bonus, per spotrac.com. He believes highly respected offensive line coach Bill Callahan has helped him improve as a technician in the trenches.“I just feel like this is where God called me to be,” Pocic said. “This is what God wanted. Just coming in here, working with Bill and [assistant O-line coach] Scott [Peters] and then everything around them, whether it be the O-linemen, the weight room, the training room, everyone's on point, so you've got a lot of good help around you.Learn more about your ad choices.

When you look at the offensive line, it’s far easier to find a good interior guy than it is an exterior player. At least if you’re the Cleveland Browns. Playing between Joel Bitonio and Wyatt Teller makes everyone’s job easier. Jack Conklin, when healthy, is one of the best tackles in the league. He usually got a little help though as well with the occasional blocking from Harrison Bryant and Pharaoh Brown. Yet, the left tackle spot is usually on its own, meaning you don’t get as much help. So you have to be the most competent player on the line of scrimmage, as you won’t likely get much help. You’re not supposed to, you’re supposed to be the best guy on the field. So when we look at Jedrick Wills, it’s very easy to see that he’s just not that guy. The Browns need to upgrade the left tackle spot on the team because Wills has proven he’s not able to handle the better pass rushers in the league, and he’s too slow of foot to be a dominant run-blocker from that spot on the field. But the Browns can’t afford to replace Wills. The team just doesn’t have the cap space needed. Especially with the need to fill in a few key backup roles on the team and a looming decision on what to do with Ethan Pocic. It seems like the Browns can easily move on from Pocic with this system being very beneficial to centers, especially with the two All-Pros surrounding the spot. Moving on from Pocic will help them in their quest to cut salary, so that seems likely. But, is there a way the Browns can continue to save money on the offensive line without having to trade or cut Wills, and get a new player at his position? There’s a simple solution to the issue at hand, move Wills to right tackle and Conklin to left. When healthy, Conklin is a great pass blocker. While Wills isn’t bad, he’s not as good as Conklin, well at least not when Conklin is healthy. Conklin has really proven himself as an elite-level offensive lineman with the Browns and may be able to fill the need at left tackle that Wills isn’t filling. If Conklin is healthy, he’s powerful enough to open up gaps on his own and quick enough to seal the edge from pass rushers. Wills has the size and can stand a guy upright. Maybe he’s just not quick enough on his own. If the Browns can pair him with a tight end who has some power, the team may be able to get the most out of Wills for the first time in his career. Especially as a run-blocker.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Garrett's X-rays came back negative after he left the field in obvious discomfort. Garrett had participated in the gridiron gauntlet skills challenge prior to sustaining the injury. A four-time Pro Bowler, Garrett is coming off a 2022 season that saw him record 16 sacks for a second straight year. The former No. 1 overall pick has recorded 74.5 sacks in 81 career regular-season games. The NFL altered the Pro Bowl this year after while getting rid of the traditional game format.

The Browns drafted Schwartz in 2021 to add a speed element lacking at the position. With Schwartz unable to carve out a significant role thus far, the Browns could look to add a player who can stretch the field vertically. It is an area that could be improved on and make this group more dynamic. Mecole Hardman is a player who could fill that role. Hardman has 500 receiving yards in each of his first three seasons and was on pace to do it again this year, but an ankle injury landed him on short-term IR. Hardman exhibits blazing speed and ranked second in yards after the catch per reception in each of his last two seasons and currently ranks eighth in 2022. Paris Campbell, Noah Browns, and DeAndre Carter are some guys that will be on the cheaper end and could provide depth and potential upside at the same time.The 2023 Free Agent wide receiver class isn’t anything to write home about, and the market exploded last off-season. With large portions of the Browns' cap space already spoken for, it is hard to imagine them swinging big in the Free Agency market. We saw different approaches last off-season with teams like the Tennessee Titans, Kansas City Chiefs, and Green Bay Packers electing not to pay their stud wide receivers and attempting to duplicate that production with less expensive players. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles, Miami Dolphins, Las Vegas Raiders, and Los Angeles Rams signed wide receiver contracts between $25 and $30 million, resetting the market. Jakobi Meyers, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Allen Lazard are the headliners of the free-agent wide receivers available in the off-season and will likely get overpaid. Darius Slayton is an intriguing name depending on the price. He took a $1.57 million pay cut to stick in New York, and after multiple injuries, Slayton is essentially the No. 1 receiver on a Giants team that is better than most expected. The 26-year-old has a career-high 74.8 PFF grade and is on pace to record a career-high in receiving yards.NFL DRAFT WIDE RECEIVER PROSPECTSThe Browns could look to add another wide receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft. They have no first-round pick and eight picks in total. If the front office thinks David Bell can step forward as their third wide receiver, this is likely the route they will look to go. The amount of urgency Berry and his staff have for adding to this room will be driven by their evaluation of what they have in Bell, Woods, and Schwartz. The NFL Draft has been deep with wide receiver talent over the last few years, and having young wide receivers on rookie deals is extremely helpful when building a roster.Learn more about your ad choices.

In this video, Watson and Stefanski both confirm they will run a "totally different" offense in 2023. This news comes as a relief to Browns fans, who had been worried about the direction of the team under Watson and Stefanski. The Browns struggled with transitioning from a power running team with Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt to a vertical Passing attack with Deshaun Watson. The Browns offense struggled under Watson and Stefanski the last 6 games of the season. Fans were worried that the offense they used in 2022 would be continued in 2023 and beyond. However, it seems as though Watson and Stefanski have decided to switch things up and use a more wide open offense passing offense. This news is sure to make Browns fans happy and relieve some of the pressure they've been under. Thanks for watching!The Cleveland Browns were hoping to get a major boost to their offensive attack when quarterback Deshaun Watson returned to the field. In the first 11 games with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback, the Browns averaged about 25 points per game. When Watson took over, the offense averaged about 13 points per game. The most points the offense scored was against the Commanders in his fifth game when the Browns scored 24 points and Watson threw second half touchdowns and had a rating of 122.5. Kevin Stefanski was asked by The OBR in the season-ending press conference what gives him hope the offense can be more explosive, in both the running and passing game.“I think that is part of this offseason is making sure that we are putting all of those things together," Stefanski said. "Obviously, having the true offseason with Deshaun and starting the season with him is I think will be obviously, a big deal as it relates to that. We want to make sure that we are scoring points in any which way we can. We want to give our guys a chance to play fast. "I thought there were really moments with Deshaun in there that were some high-level football," he said. "I thought guys were playing really well. It was the run game, and it was the passing game. Those really exciting parts of this offseason, just tapping into those things even more and drilling down specifically into what Deshaun does really well and put together and offense around it.”Watson said it was important to him to get to work on the 2023 season and he wants to give his input as to what he thinks can help the offense."Met with (Stefanski) today," he said. "We are going to have a man to man conversation. Nothing negative or anything like that, but just what can we do to be better offensively and as a team." Watson said after he meets with the coaches the next couple of days, he will then take a break, but then get back to work."Being able to relax a little bit and decompress," he said. "Once all of that pretty much settles down, then get back to work, watching the tape, watching the film and mastering this offense. Like I said before, mentioned meeting with Kevin and AVP (Alex Van Pelt) and (quarterbacks coach) Drew (Petzing) and being able to figure out what we need to do better and then mastering those before we come back for OTAs.” Stefanski was asked if he expected the offense to be drastically different in 2023 than it was in the six games to finish the season.“I hope year to year you are different – different being better," he said. "How drastic that is depends so much year to year. Ultimately, we do want to maximize Deshaun’s talents, maximize Nick Chubb, David Njoku and Amari (Cooper). We want to make sure that we are putting all of those guys in a good spot. Yes, there are things that yes we want to get to this spring and summer that we haven’t gotten into just yet.”Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Browns finished the 2022 season with one of the worst interior defensive line groups in all of football. Much of the blame for the struggling defensive line could be on the scheme that now former DC Joe Woods ran in Cleveland, however, the Browns just never had the talent at the position anyways.The two starting defensive lineman for the Browns were Jordan Elliot and Taven Bryan, who ranked at 118 and 66 respectively at their position, according to Pro Football Focus. Against the run, the Browns defense allowed 135 rushing yards per game and 1.3 rushing touchdowns per game, both statistics near dead last in the NFL. Elliott played in around at least half of the Browns snaps on the defensive line every game last season. He finished the year with 36 combined tackles, 5 tackles for a loss, 3 quarterback hits and 2 sacks.In addition to Elliott, Bryan was a big part of that room this past season. He was signed to the team last off-season on a one-year contract. Bryan, a former first-round pick by the Jaguars in 2018, was brought to Cleveland last off-season in an attempt to bolster the team up-front. However, the starting duo of Bryan and Elliott simply wasn't effective enough. Perrion Winfrey was another guy in the rotation for the Browns this past season. Winfrey was a fourth-round selection by the team in the 2022 NFL draft. Winfrey showed flashes throughout the season but is still not viewed as a starting caliber defensive tackle in the near future. In order to make a push towards the postseason next year, the Browns will need to aggressively add talent to their roster through free agency, the draft and test out the trade market. Cleveland is expected to be heavily involved in the defensive tackle market this off-season. In Schwartz's past, he's almost always had a dominant force on the interior defensive line when he found success. One player who would certainly fit the bill is Washington Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne. Payne, a 5-year veteran and former first-round selection by Washington, was recently named to the 2023 NFL Pro Bowl roster and led the Commanders dominate front four in sacks last season. Over the course of his career, Payne has played in at least 15 games every season. Payne will come at a great cost, however, after finishing out the last year of his rookie deal. If Washington elects not to re-sign him and he hits the open market, Payne will likely draw interest from almost every NFL organization. A 25-year-old Pro Bowl caliber player doesn't hit the open market very often, especially at the defensive tackle position. Defensive tackles Javon Hargrave and Fletcher Cox, unless they re-sign with the Eagles, will be unrestricted free agents in March and are both extremely talented tackles who could be on the Browns radar. Cox, a six-time All-Pro, is a 32-year-old veteran who has produced at high level for a long time in the league. Cox would likely be signed to a shorter-term deal and could be significantly cheaper than other players at the top of the market. Cox played under Schwartz in Philadelphia where the two won a Super Bowl together. Hargrave, on the other hand, is a player who is expected to receive a big-time contract this off-season. Whether that is from Philadelphia or not, a team will be interested in giving the 29-year-old interior lineman a nice pay-day. Hargrave finished the 2022 regular season with several career best marks, including sacks and tackles for a loss. He tallied 11 sacks, 60 tackles, 10 tackles for a loss and 16 quarterback hits during the 2022 campaign. Hargrave would be an ideal fit for the Browns and Schwartz as a player they can rely on to wreck havoc up the middle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this video, Watson and Stefanski both confirm they will run a "totally different" offense in 2023. This news comes as a relief to Browns fans, who had been worried about the direction of the team under Watson and Stefanski. The Browns struggled with transitioning from a power running team with Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt to a vertical Passing attack with Deshaun Watson. The Browns offense struggled under Watson and Stefanski the last 6 games of the season. Fans were worried that the offense they used in 2022 would be continued in 2023 and beyond. However, it seems as though Watson and Stefanski have decided to switch things up and use a more wide open offense passing offense. This news is sure to make Browns fans happy and relieve some of the pressure they've been under. Thanks for watching!The Cleveland Browns were hoping to get a major boost to their offensive attack when quarterback Deshaun Watson returned to the field. In the first 11 games with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback, the Browns averaged about 25 points per game. When Watson took over, the offense averaged about 13 points per game. The most points the offense scored was against the Commanders in his fifth game when the Browns scored 24 points and Watson threw second half touchdowns and had a rating of 122.5. Kevin Stefanski was asked by The OBR in the season-ending press conference what gives him hope the offense can be more explosive, in both the running and passing game.“I think that is part of this offseason is making sure that we are putting all of those things together," Stefanski said. "Obviously, having the true offseason with Deshaun and starting the season with him is I think will be obviously, a big deal as it relates to that. We want to make sure that we are scoring points in any which way we can. We want to give our guys a chance to play fast. "I thought there were really moments with Deshaun in there that were some high-level football," he said. "I thought guys were playing really well. It was the run game, and it was the passing game. Those really exciting parts of this offseason, just tapping into those things even more and drilling down specifically into what Deshaun does really well and put together and offense around it.”Watson said it was important to him to get to work on the 2023 season and he wants to give his input as to what he thinks can help the offense."Met with (Stefanski) today," he said. "We are going to have a man to man conversation. Nothing negative or anything like that, but just what can we do to be better offensively and as a team." Watson said after he meets with the coaches the next couple of days, he will then take a break, but then get back to work."Being able to relax a little bit and decompress," he said. "Once all of that pretty much settles down, then get back to work, watching the tape, watching the film and mastering this offense. Like I said before, mentioned meeting with Kevin and AVP (Alex Van Pelt) and (quarterbacks coach) Drew (Petzing) and being able to figure out what we need to do better and then mastering those before we come back for OTAs.” Stefanski was asked if he expected the offense to be drastically different in 2023 than it was in the six games to finish the season.“I hope year to year you are different – different being better," he said. "How drastic that is depends so much year to year. Ultimately, we do want to maximize Deshaun’s talents, maximize Nick Chubb, David Njoku and Amari (Cooper). We want to make sure that we are putting all of those guys in a good spot. Yes, there are things that yes we want to get to this spring and summer that we haven’t gotten into just yet.”Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Browns have a lot of questions regarding their wide receiver room, the biggest one is regarding if they are ready to commit long term money to Donovan Peoples Jones. If Jones is not in the long term plans then Andrew Berry and company need to add to the room through free agency or the draft. Several young wideouts are in the mix but none have stood out to this point. Adding a vet receiver seems rational until you look at the market of what is underwhelming free agent class. The draft offers a few solid names but none that should be available when the Cleveland brass will be on the clock. #BrownsLinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

The Cleveland Browns have the worst defensive tackle room in the NFL. It was apparent during training camp, and it derailed their season as teams routinely gutted the Browns on the ground. And now as the offseason is underway in Cleveland, rookie Perrion Winfrey may be the only name to return to the room in 2023. This means they will have to spend some money in free agency to re-tool this room before the 2023 NFL Draft. Not every signing will be a big name, but given the urgency in the defensive trenches for the Browns, defensive tackle may be a position they will splurge on. If they do, here are four names that sit at the top of the market for the Browns to highlight. Daron Payne Payne is the white whale of the trenches in the 2023 Free Agency class. And with another Crimson Tide alum in the locker room in Cleveland already, maybe Amari Cooper can persuade Payne in the right direction. And that direction is in the Northwest direction from Washington D.C. His production took a massive leap in 2022, racking up 11.5 sacks from his defensive tackle post, adding 18 tackles for loss and another 20 hits on opposing quarterbacks. It is anticipated that Washington utilizes their franchise tag on him, but if they let him walk expect the Browns to be top competitors for his services.Javon HargraveA big reason for the defensive success of the Philadelphia Eagles can be attributed to defensive tackle Javon Hargrave. As they capture the top seed in the NFC and look to make a run at a Super Bowl, Hargrave is experiencing a massive breakout campaign of his own. After setting a career mark with 7.5 sacks and nine tackles for loss a year ago with the Eagles, Hargrave further topped those numbers this year with 11 sacks and 10 tackles behind the line of scrimmage. Entering free agency at the age of 30, Hargrave is going to cash in again. And it might just be the Browns who get him. Their competition, however? General manager Andrew Berry’s mentor Howie Roseman, who has proven extremely capable of manipulating the cap to keep his significant contributors.Dre'Mont JonesA former Ohio State Buckeye, the Browns could try to lure Dre’Mont Jones back to the state of Ohio this offseason. As the Broncos go through a weird transition where they have the guy they presume to be a franchise quarterback, but are about to hire their second head coach in as many years, they could be willing to let some valuable players walk. A former third rounder in the 2019 NFL Draft, Jones has stacked up three consecutive and consistent seasons of at least 5.5 sacks from the interior, seven tackles for loss, 40 pressures (in the last two seasons), and 10 hits on the quarterback. Just 26 years old, Jones would give an instant boost to the defensive line in Cleveland.Dalvin TomlinsonWhile he is not as much of a pass rusher as the three who came before him on the list, he is a plug that the Browns are desperately missing. Dalvin Tomlinson provides so much relief for his linebackers in Minnesota due to his ability to consistently take on double teams along the defensive interior. The linebackers in Cleveland are not as bad as the public perceives them to be, but they get no help from their defensive tackles to keep them clean. We truly have no idea what these linebackers would look like with a stout nose tackle like Tomlinson because they have never had one in three years under Joe Woods.Learn more about your ad choices.

Former Super Bowl-winning defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz is returning to Cleveland. The Browns plan to hire Schwartz as their new dc, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Tuesday, per a source informed of the situation.Schwartz got his NFL start with the Browns under Bill Belichick as a personnel scout from 1993-1995. Schwartz rose to prominence as the Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator (2001-2008), which helped him land the Detroit Lions head coaching gig. Schwartz helped the Lions return to the postseason for the first time in over a decade but bottomed out, going 29-51 in five seasons. After his stint as a head coach, the fiery Schwartz returned to defensive coordinator duties. He spent one season as DC in Buffalo in 2014. He then moved to Philadelphia, where he spent the next five seasons as the coordinator, helping the Eagles win their first Lombardi Trophy in 2017. Schwartz left Eagles following the 2020 season, returning to Tennessee as a senior defensive assistant for the past two campaigns. Now he's back in Cleveland to help turn around an underperforming defense under former DC Joe Woods. Schwartz's scheme meshes well with Pro Bowl edge rusher Miles Garrett, but the Browns must spend the offseason upgrading a unit with holes at every level.Schwartz replaces Joe Woods, who was fired last week after the Browns ranked 19th in defensive efficiency, finished with a record of 7-10 and missed the playoffs for a second consecutive season. Schwartz was the head coach of the Detroit Lions from 2009 to 2013, going just 29-51 over that stretch but leading the Lions to the playoffs in 2011. He won a Super Bowl as defensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018. Schwartz, 56, spent the past two years as a defensive assistant with the Tennessee Titans.Schwartz also had defensive coordinator stints with the Titans (2001-08) and Buffalo Bills (2014). He was a personnel scout for the Browns from 1993-95 under then-Cleveland head coach Bill Belichick.The Browns also interviewed Pittsburgh Steelers defensive assistant and former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores for their defensive coordinator.job, as well as Seattle Seahawks assistant Sean Desai and Philadelphia assistant Dennard Wilson.Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cleveland Browns interviewed Jim Schwartz for their opening at defensive coordinator yesterday, and now they are bringing in former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores today. And according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, “People I’ve talked to think Flores has a real good shot at Browns’ DC job.”The Browns still have to interview Jerod Mayo and Sean Desai, who are both tantalizing candidates as well, but Breer also added in his mailbag that he has heard owner Jimmy Haslam is a fan of his. The Browns have wasted no time, and perhaps their best candidate is in the building today.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Don't miss this episode of the SECRETS Behind the Beef, where we reveal the secrets behind the drama between the two stars of the Cleveland NFL sports scene. Tune in to find out what's really going on!Myles Garrett said Friday that he was "disappointed" and "a little bit confused" by comments from fellow defensive end Jadeveon Clowney that prompted the Cleveland Browns to send Clowney home before Friday's practice."I knew he was frustrated. We've all been frustrated; we're not winning," Garrett said. "I wish we could've talked about this man-to-man. ... I wish he would have handled it a little bit differently." On Thursday, Clowney told Cleveland.com that he was "95 percent sure" he would not be re-signing with the Browns, in large part because he believes the team has favored Garrett over him. Clowney did not play on the opening series the next weekend on "Monday Night Football" against the Cincinnati Bengals, although he entered the game on Cincinnati's second possession. Garrett said he didn't even realize Clowney was refusing to play on first or second down against Baltimore until the next week. "I assumed he was hurt," Garrett said. "I just assumed something was holding him back."Clowney has had a disappointing second season for the 7-9 Browns, who were eliminated from the AFC playoff picture two weeks ago. After racking up nine sacks with the Browns last season, Clowney has only two sacks this year. He also sat four games with ankle and concussion injuries.Clowney is a free agent again this offseason, having signed back-to-back one-year deals with the Browns. Garrett, meanwhile, has a team-high 15 sacks, fourth-most in the NFL, and was named to a fourth Pro Bowl. Garrett also has faced the highest double-team rate (31.3%) of any edge rusher in the league this season. Despite that, he's second among edge rushers in pass rush win rate (27.8%); Clowney's pass rush win rate is just 16.5%.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Deshaun Watson continues to improve on a weekly basis. The Cleveland QB had a strong game in Week 17. He completed 9-of-18 passes for 169 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions. Despite attempting the fewest passes of the season, Watson was highly efficient. He averaged 9.4 yards per attempt. This was also his first multi-touchdown performance of the season, with touchdowns thrown from distances of 46, 13, and 33 yards.The Cleveland Browns already eliminated the Washington Commanders from playoff contention last week. They can eliminate another team this coming weekend if they beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18 on the road. The Steelers need this win to stay alive for a playoff berth, but the Browns would be all too happy to kick their division rivals out of contention.Keep in mind that the Browns and Steelers have a longstanding rivalry. That’s despite Cleveland’s history of struggles on the field. Remember also that in the recent past, Cleveland has managed to secure a playoff spot thanks to the Steelers and even defeated Pittsburgh in the playoffs.However, this year, the tables have turned. Now, it’s the Steelers who need to win against Cleveland in the final week of the season. Aside from that, Pittsburgh also needs both the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins to lose their games so the Steelers can make it to the playoffs.Additionally, Pittsburgh’s head coach, Mike Tomlin, has a streak of winning seasons on the line. That said, Cleveland has the opportunity to end their season on a high note by kicking a rival out of playoff contention and ending Tomlin’s streak.Learn more about your ad choices.

Kevin Stefanski on Myles Garrett sitting out first series: "That was my decision." As the Cleveland Browns fell short against the New Orleans Saints on Christmas Eve, one of the more bizarre situations happened. Coming off of a terrorizing performance against the Baltimore Ravens, defensive end and Pro Bowler Myles Garrett was not on the field for the opening possession of the game. When asked about it by the media, head coach Kevin Stefanski remained tight-lipped on the matter, stating:“That was just a team thing. That was my decision.” He would not go into further detail. Garrett missed practice throughout the week with an illness, so he could have just been on a pitch count. Regardless, it was odd to see him sit out that very first series.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Browns gave their frozen fans nothing but a lump of coal on Christmas Eve with a 17-10 loss to the Saints at frozen FirstEnergy Stadium after leading 10-0 in the second quarter. The loss dropped the Browns to 6-9 and eliminated them playoff contention once and for all. The Saints improved to 6-9 to keep their playoff hopes alive. Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson struggled in the frigid conditions, completing 15-of-31 attempts for 135 yards with no touchdowns and one interception for a 47.1 rating. He went ice-cold in the second half. Nick Chubb rushed for 92 yards, but it wasn’t enough, as the Browns failed to score in the second half. Trailing 17-10, Watson took over at his 20 with 5:16 left and all three timeouts remaining. He shook off a sack and hit Amari Cooper with a 14-yard pass to the Saints 33 and the David Bell with an 18-yarder to the 15. But Watson threw three straight incompletions -- one pass to Cooper, and drops by Donovan Peoples-Jones and tight end David Njoku in the end zone -- and was sacked on fourth down to end the game. Watson struggled to hit his mark amid the fierce winds whipping off the lake, with gusts of more than 30 mph. Temperature at kickoff was 6 degrees, making it the coldest game in Browns history. Windchill made it feel like minus-16.NextThe Browns visit the Washington Commanders on New Year’s Day. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Everything is in the Browns favor to come out of Christmas Eve with a victory over the Saints. The Saints added two more players on offense to injured reserve and rookie wide receiver Chris Olave will also be out of this game with a hamstring injury. Ethan Pocic will return after missing the last four games. Nick Chubb returned to practice and will play Saturday. With the weather being such a factor it plays in to the Browns strength, their running game. It also puts the Saints in a tough spot, their inability to run the ball.

Find Out Deshaun Watson's PFF Grades Following The Browns Big win vs. Ravens! The Locked On Browns Podcast Is joined by John Kosko of Pro Football Focus. He gives the top grades and his reaction to the Cleveland Browns 13-3 Win over AFC North Division rival Baltimore Ravens.Watson threw a touchdown pass in his home debut for Cleveland, leading the Browns to an ugly 13-3 win on Saturday over the Baltimore Ravens, who need injured star quarterback Lamar Jackson to get back quickly. In his third game after serving an 11-game NFL suspension for alleged sexual misconduct, Watson wasn't spectacular. But he did enough to help the Browns (6-8) keep their miniscule playoff hopes alive while knocking the Ravens (9-5) off stride. Baltimore had won six of seven. But the loss knocked the Ravens out of first in the AFC North, dropping them a half-game back of Cincinnati pending the Bengals' game at Tampa Bay on Sunday.Before he left the field, Watson let all his emotions pour out. “It was a lot," Watson said, explaining his feelings at the conclusion. "Just to be able to get my first victory in my first home start, just to get a victory against a tough divisional team. Last week we wanted that one, and it didn’t go our way. “It was me just soaking in the moment and releasing all the energy and the happiness I had in myself. I just wanted yell that and scream that out. I feel like everyone needs that every once in a while.”Watson, who connected with Donovan Peoples-Jones on a 3-yard TD pass in the third quarter, left FirstEnergy Stadium with a game ball tucked under his right arm. Watson finished 18 of 28 for 161 yards, and added 22 on the ground. He's still not close to playing like a three-time Pro Bowler or franchise QB, but there's no doubt he's getting better every time. “He's trending upward, which we knew he would do,” said Browns star Myles Garrett, w ho had 1 1/2 sacks. “He's a baller.”Browns rookie Cade York made two field goals — and missed two tries — but outkicked Ravens All-Pro Justin Tucker, the league's most accurate kicker, who missed a 48-yarder and had another attempt blocked by Cleveland defensive tackle Jordan Elliott. Jackson missed his second straight game with a knee injury, and the Ravens aren't the same without his dynamic playmaking ability.Tyler Huntley, who was only cleared from concussion protocol a few days ago, started again for Jackson but couldn't get Baltimore going. Huntley went 17 of 30 for 138 yards, but threw a critical interception inside Cleveland's 10 in the third. Baltimore's J.K. Dobbins ran for 125 yards, and the Ravens rolled up 198 yards rushing. But forced to throw while playing from behind in the fourth, Huntley couldn't come up with a big play. “We have to just have a better passing game, basically,” coach John Harbaugh said with Huntley sitting nearby. "It’s not a good enough passing game right now across the board to do the things that we’re hoping to do. So, that will be priority one. "Every area can get better at something in certain things, but from an offensive standpoint, that’s something that we have to go to work on, and we will.” After Denzel Ward intercepted Huntley, Watson directed a 91-yard scoring drive, delivering his TD strike to Peoples-Jones with 2:10 left in the third.Learn more about your ad choices.

Deshaun Watson has finally made his home debut for the Cleveland Browns in an AFC North clash with the Baltimore Ravens. Defense dominated the story early, as neither team found the end zone in the first 30 minutes of action. The second half wasn't much better, but the Browns did take home the dub. Cade York kicked two field goals while Justin Tucker missed an easy one to allow the Browns to take a 6-3 lead into the halftime locker room. Nick Chubb & Kareem Hunt were both held in check in the first half by a ferocious Ravens defense. Watson completed 13/18 passes for 105 yards in the half. He outgained Ravens QB Tyler Huntley.

The Browns defensive coaching staff has come under fire do to comments concerning the Browns Defensive Adjustments made against the Cincinnati Bengals. If you're a fan of Browns football, then you need to listen to this episode of the Locked On Ravens podcast! We preview the Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens game and discuss key players, matchups and more.Don't miss out on the latest news and information about the Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens, as well as other major sports news. Subscribe now and never miss a episode of the Locked On Browns podcast!The AFC North-leading Ravens look for the regular season sweep over the Browns in the second game of Saturday's tripleheader (4:30 p.m. ET, NFLN). Baltimore enters Week 15 off two narrow victories -- a 10-9 win over Denver in Week 13 and a 16-14 road win over Pittsburgh last Sunday. In both wins, backup quarterback Tyler Huntley took the majority of snaps under center with Lamar Jackson nursing a knee injury.Huntley exited midway through the third quarter last week and is currently in the league's concussion protocol. He was able to log a limited session in Baltimore's Tuesday practice, giving him a shot to start on Saturday. Jackson, meanwhile, didn't practice on Tuesday and is trending toward missing his second-straight game. Cleveland's playoff hopes are dwindling, but it's still alive and has a manageable schedule to close out the regular season. The Browns are in must-win mode, and notching a home victory over Baltimore is the first step in potentially sneaking into the postseason. Despite posting a 1-1 record in Deshaun Watson's first two starts, the high-priced QB has underwhelmed through two weeks, posting a 48.3 QBR to go along with a 59.4 completion percentage. It certainly takes time to adjust to playing at game speed, but with zero margin for error, Watson needs to play to the level of his $230 million contract.Learn more about your ad choices.

Deshaun Watson looked better in his second game under center against the Cincinnati Bengals. But with a loss to Joe Burrow and the Bengals the Browns playoff hopes took a huge hit! We discuss whether or not the Cleveland Browns should play the young guys with the playoffs out of reach. Or should the Browns go with the veterans and give them a chance to end the 2022 season with a winning record of 9-8? We discuss the pros and cons of both options in this episode of the Locked on Browns Podcast!The Cleveland Browns have been decimated by injuries at the linebacker position this season. After already losing three starters for the season in Anthony Walker Jr., Jacob Phillips, and Sione Takitaki, they could now be on the verge of losing a fourth. Injuring his foot in the loss to the Cincinnati Bengals this weekend, WILL linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah and the Browns are waiting on test results to see just how bad the damage is. For a defensive unit in need of salvaging this off-season as it is, this is less than stellar news for one of their few consistent contributors in 2022.#browns #clevelandbrowns #nfl #brownsnews Learn more about your ad choices.

Joe Burrow did enough offensively, and the Bengals' defense stepped up to end the Browns' recent domination of the Battle of Ohio. Burrow shook off a sloppy start to throw two touchdown passes and Cincinnati beat Cleveland 23-10 on Sunday, ending a five-game skid in the rivalry. “A team win, team ugly win, but we got it done," Burrow said. Cincinnati bottled up Browns running back Nick Chubb, picked off Deshaun Watson and stopped the Browns on three fourth-down plays. “The defense played unbelievable and that really ended up being the deciding factor in the game,” Burrow said. “And so that’s kind of showing the kind of team we’re becoming — we’re able to win in a lot of different ways. You’ve seen it over the last couple of weeks on the defensive end and the offensive end and the kicking game. We’re just a complete team right now.” The Bengals (9-4) have won five straight and nine of 11. They remained tied for the AFC North lead with Baltimore, which beat Pittsburgh 16-14. Burrow picked up his first win in five starts against the Browns (5-8), whose playoff hopes are now all but nonexistent.Watson was sharper than in his debut with the team last week and threw his first touchdown pass in 707 days, a 13-yarder to David Njoku in the third quarter. But Watson also threw a fourth-quarter interception and couldn't hook up with Donovan Peoples-Jones on a late fourth-and-goal from the 6 that would have made it a one-score game. He turned the ball over downs again on the Browns' last drive when he threw incomplete to Amari Cooper. Watson finished 26 of 42 for 276 yards, and his touchdown pass was the only time the Browns found the end zone. “The game is going to continue to speed up,” Watson said. “Each week is going to get better. Today was another learning lesson. Just need to continue to improve. The progress is always taking one step forward. The biggest ultimate goal is to get the W.” Burrow was 9 for 21 for 110 yards in the first half, including a 15-yard TD to Ja'Marr Chase. In the third quarter, Burrow found Trenton Irwin for an easy 45-yard scoring pass when the Browns bit on a flea-flicker.Burrow was largely reliant on Chase after his other top receivers, Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins, left the game with injuries. Chase had 10 receptions for 119 yards in his second game back since missing a month with a hip fracture. The Bengals quarterback finished 18 for 33 for 239 yards and threw a fourth-quarter interception. Joe Mixon, who missed the last two games with a concussion, rushed for 96 yards, including a 40-yard breakaway on a drive that led to a Cincinnati field goal on the first play of the fourth quarter. “In that first quarter, I wasn’t playing very well, I was missing throws,” Burrow said. “I settled in there in the second half of the second quarter, and from there we really moved the ball really well. The run game was good to us. Ja'Marr was incredible like he always is.”The Cincinnati Bengals took control of this game in the second quarter and beat the Cleveland Browns for the first time in six tries. Offensive spotlight: QB Deshaun Watson didn't look much better than he did last week, completing 26-of-42 attempts for 276 yards and a touchdown and throwing a backbreaking interception late in the game. He gained just 6.6 yards per attempt.Defensive spotlight: Cincinnati’s defense did a number on the Browns' run game, with D.J. Reader looking back to his best. Browns RB Nick Chubb averaged just 2.4 yards per attempt, and without that foundation, the Browns offense was toothless.Rookie spotlight: Wide receiver David Bell played 50 snaps for the Browns but caught just three passes for 27 yards. Bell is averaging just 0.8 yards per route run this season, the worst mark among rookie pass-catchers.Offensive line spotlight: Cleveland put plenty of pressure on Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati offense, but it wasn’t enough. Every member of the Bengals line surrendered some volume of pressure.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Recap of the Browns vs. Bengals game. Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Burrow both played important roles in the final outcome. Tune in to find out what was the turning point of the game was and how the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Cleveland Browns in the battle for Ohio. Keep your eye out for my more Cleveland Browns analysis tomorrow from 11 am- 1:00 pm on The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show. in the upcoming season!Joe Burrow finally figured out how to win the Battle of Ohio. With their 23-10 victory over the Browns, the Bengals effectively snuffed out the Browns flickering playoff hopes -- although at 5-8, they haven’t been mathematically eliminated yet. The Bengals, in winning their fifth straight game, improved to 9-4 and snapped a five-game losing streak to the Browns. They had also lost eight of their last nine to the Browns, and Burrow couldn’t get the Browns’ monkey off his back.He’s 3-0 against the Chiefs but couldn’t get past Myles Garrett and Browns. That all changed on Sunday, despite the fact Burrow was without three of his top weapons in tight end Hayden Hurst, Tee Higgins (hamstring) and Tyler Boyd (finger). But Ja’Marr Chase, who sat out the 32-13 Browns victory on Halloween night, caught 10 of 15 targets for 119 yards and a touchdown.Burrow went 18 of 33 for 239 yards with 2 TDs and 1 INT for an 85.3 rating.Deshaun Watson, in only his second game back after 700 days off, went 26 of 42 for 276 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT for a 79.1 rating. Nick Chubb rushed 14 times for only 34 yards. The Browns next opponent, the Ravens, beat the Steelers to improve to 9-4 and maintain their edge in the AFC North, but Lamar Jackson (knee) might still rest next Saturday.Trailing 23-10, Watson was intercepted by safety Jessie Bates III on a pass intended for Donovan Peoples-Jones with 13:39 left in the game and the Bengals in field goal territory. But after they moved to the Browns 31, the Browns got an interception of their own keep themselves in the game. Jadeveon Clowney tipped the pass and Deion Jones picked it off. Unfortunately for the Browns, they were unable to cash in on the opportunity. They marched to the Bengals’ 6, but Watson threw three straight incompletions, including one to Amari Cooper out of the back of the end zone, and one to Donovan Peoples-Jones at the left corner when Cam Taylor-Britt broke up the pass.The Bengals extended their lead to 20-3 on a flea-flicker that caught the Browns defense off guard. Burrow handed the ball to Joe Mixon, who flipped it back to Burrow, who found receiver Trenton Irwin wide open over the middle of the field for a 45-yard touchdown. Safeties Grant Delpit and most other Browns bit on the run, and Irwin had no defender within 15 yards of him. But the Browns answered the flea flicker with a touchdown of their own — a 13-yarder by David Njoku, who dove for the pylon. The drive ended with three straight completions to Njoku, who had missed three of the last four games with injuries. It marked Watson’s first touchdown pass.Learn more about your ad choices.

Deshaun Watson admitted that his return to Houston last week for the Browns’ 27-14 victory over the Texans hit him more emotionally than expected. “Yeah, I think last week, it was a lot,” Watson said Thursday. “The anticipation to just be back on the field, the anticipation of going back to my former team, the anticipation of playing against former teammates and being in front of a crowd that used to cheer for me at the time. So all that stuff was definitely, it was a lot. I’m human so I definitely have things running through my mind and through my just soul in general. Browns offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt admitted that Watson had a lot on his plate in his return to Houston, where he spent the first five seasons of his career, and where most of the more than two dozen allegations of sexual misconduct took place. Watson, who completed 12 of 31 attempts for 131 yards with no touchdowns and one interception for a 53.4 passer rating, has reason to believe he’ll be a lot better in Week 2 in Cincinnati than he was in Houston, where many of his passes were low, and he bounced one at Amari Cooper’s feet. He also rushed a throw in the end zone and was picked off by safety Jalen Pitre on a pass intended for Cooper. Watson acknowledged that sprinting from drill to drill on Wednesday was an effort to simulate the speed of the game and get his mind and body in synch. “Most definitely,” he said. “Just mind, body, everything. Just getting my conditioning going, wearing pads running, being able to move because in practice and training camp, I didn’t really scramble much, so in a live action being able to have to scramble and then come back and then do another play, call the play in the huddle, operate, sometimes hand it off, sometimes do a pass play. I gotta make sure that my conditioning is up. So any way I can just try to improve that, that’s what I’m going to do.”Given the 700 days off, everything was adjustment, especially in the place he called home for five years. “I wouldn’t say (the game was) fast, it was just mostly just being able to adjust,” he said. “Like I said before, just really just the conditioning level, being able to go out there and operate, see things like I’ve been seeing it before and then get on the same page with the whole offensive staff of what we want to do for the game plan to execute.” As an anticipatory thrower, Watson found it tough to gauge the timing of receivers Donovan Peoples-Jones, Cooper, David Bell and Anthony Schwartz. This game, he’ll also have tight end David Njoku back from his knee injury. “Every receiver is different, especially on different routes with DPJ and Coop and D. Bell, all those guys are different route runners. So being able to know how they’re gonna come out, when they’re gonna come out, how they’re gonna come out and where they’re gonna be, it takes a little bit of time. But I gotta be able to adjust quick, especially if you want to be successful. And that’s my mindset is just trying to get extra reps, watch extra tape and just let them know what I’m thinking and try to see what they’re thinking on certain routes.”Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals meet for the second time in 2022. Here’s a look at the odds and a prediction for their Week 14 matchup. Back in Week 8, the Cleveland Browns hosted the Cincinnati Bengals on Halloween night. It was the only Monday Night Football game for the Browns this season and they defeated the Bengals by a score of 32-13. It was a big win not only due to it being on a national stage but also because it stopped a horrendous four-game losing streak. Since then, Cleveland has gone 2-2 but the wins have come in back-to-back weeks Cincinnati, on the other hand, hasn’t lost since that night. They’ve now won four in a row and just scored a win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. With that being the case, they’re unsurprisingly the favorite entering Week 14.Cincinnati is sitting at -6 right now in the odds with a -260 in the Moneyline, compared to +215 for the Browns. The over/under is 47.5, which might be low considering how these teams often play one another.This will be the second game for Deshaun Watson as the Cleveland starter and his debut left a lot to be desired. Of course, anyone who thought he would look the same as he did in 2020 was fooling themselves. With nearly two years off, he’s going to need some time to get reacclimated to the speed of the game. In this one, he will look better but it won’t be enough to outduel Joe Burrow. And while the Cleveland defense looked better against Houston, they’re still the same team we’ve seen getting steamrolled all year long.Learn more about your ad choices.

John Kosko of PFF joines the Locked On Browns Podcast to give grades for the Browns offense and defense against the Houston Texans. Kosko also breaks down the play of Browns QB Deshaun Watson in leading the Browns to a 27-14 victory over the Houston Texans. We discuss Deshaun Watson's performance, including his obvious rust in his first game back under center. We also give our thoughts on the Cleveland Brown's defense and special teams that came up big in the victory over the Texans. Deshaun Watson struggled in a sloppy performance in his first game in 700 days but a punt return for a touchdown by Donovan Peoples-Jones and two defensive TDs were plenty enough to give the Cleveland Browns a 27-14 win over the lowly Houston Texans on Sunday. In the same stadium where he played his previous game, a rusty Watson threw for 131 yards with an interception in his debut for the Browns (5-7) against his former team in his return after serving an 11-game NFL suspension for sexual misconduct allegations. Plenty of fans attended the game wearing Watson’s No. 4 jersey from both the Texans (1-10-1) and the Browns, but there were also detractors with loud boos raining down on him every time he touched the ball.The Browns trailed 5-0 early but a 76-yard punt return by Peoples-Jones put them on top in the second quarter and Denzel Ward’s 4-yard fumble return for a score pushed the lead to 14-5 early in the third quarter. Cleveland didn’t score on offense until a 43-yard field goal made it 17-8 with about 10 minutes remaining. The Browns added a second defensive score when Tony Fields intercepted Kyle Allen and returned it 16 yards on the next play.Allen had a terrible day in his second start since Davis Mills was benched. He threw for 201 yards with a fumble that was returned for a touchdown and two interceptions, the second of which was returned for a score, as Houston’s skid stretched seven games.#Browns #Texans #NFL #ClevelandBrowns #DeshaunWatsonLearn more about your ad choices.

The Cleveland Browns beat the Houston Texans on Sunday in the return of quarterback Deshaun Watson. Yes Watson looked rusty and it's because some football things can not be replicated in practice or training sessions. Those things will improve in the upcoming weeks. Sione Takitaki going down is a big blow for the Browns and for Taki himself with free agency looming. Tony Fields had a very impressive day and will see a ton of playing time over the final five games. Donovan Peoples Jones continues his impressive third season and is adding more to his repertoire. Perrion Winfrey and Alex Wright are getting more reps and are players who are improving as we get to the final weeks of the regular season. #Browns #DeshaunWatsonLinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

Deshaun Watson finally made his debut for the Cleveland Browns.It was a long time coming for the former Houston Texans quarterback, who made his first start for his new team against his old employer.The first half of the game was ugly. The Browns' only points came on a 76-yard punt return touchdown from Donovan Peoples-Jones. Watson threw an interception and looked rusty. However, he did show signs of what makes him an elite quarterback by escaping the rush and finding open receivers on the outside. Nick Chubb got tackled in the end zone for a safety as well.Defensively, the Browns continued to get gashed in the running game but held Kyle Allen in check in the air. Overall, the first half was as ugly as anything you've ever seen, as the Browns led 7-5 heading into break.The second half was a similar story. The offensive stunk and the defense dominated.LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

When he takes the field on Sunday, Watson will have gone 700 days since he last played in a regular-season game. (Expect to hear that number a lot on Sunday). Watson was a full participant in the offseason program, training camp, and has a full week of practice under his belt, but there is no way of knowing how much rust he has and how long it will take him to get into a rhythm. One thing working in Watson and the Browns favor is that Houston’s defense is not good, so he should be able to get in enough throws to be comfortable enough going into the next two games, which are key division tilts against the Cincinnati Bengals (+2) Given how poorly Houston is against the run, a nice game plan that features just enough passes from Watson to get him in a groove combined with a proactive running game that reaches into Cleveland’s depth to keep Chubb fresh should be on order for Sunday. It’s the Browns, there must be some cause for concern?: It really doesn’t matter who they play, the Browns defense struggles to keep anyone in check when they are running with the football. That could be a problem against Houston rookie running back Dameon Pierce, who has rushed for 788 yards on the season. However, Pierce is in a bit of a slump as he has gained a total of 16 rushing yards over the past two games.Nothing puts a hop in a running back’s step quite like playing the Browns, so Cleveland will have to keep an eye on Pierce to make sure he does not rediscover the mojo that saw him rush for 670 yards during a seven-game stretch earlier this season.A healthy secondary: Cleveland received some good news on Friday as cornerback Greg Newsome II is expected to play after missing two games with a concussion, and fellow cornerback Denzel Ward is also on schedule to play after dealing with a tight hamstring in practice.That gives the Browns their top trio of Ward, Newsome and rookie Martin Emerson Jr. – who had himself quite a game last week against Tampa Bay – back on the field together with an opportunity to get in some work as they prepare for next week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.Game NotesThe Browns remain among the league leaders in rushing as they are No. 2 with 18 rushing touchdowns, No. 5 with 1,698 rushing yards, No. 5 with 101 rushing first downs and No. 3 with 56 runs of 10-plus yards.Cleveland wide receiver Amari Cooper is tied for fourth in the league with seven receiving touchdowns.Cleveland running back Nick Chubb is one rushing touchdown away from setting a career high with 13. Chubb is also 164 rushing yards away from becoming the fourth running back in franchise history to rush for at least 6,000 career yards.Houston is minus-2 in turnovers the past three games and have lost the turnover battle in five of their past six losses.Cleveland defense end Jadeveon Clowney , Houston’s No. 1 selection in the 2014 NFL Draft, will play against the Texans for the first time in Houston.A Final QuoteCleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski on expectations for quarterback Deshaun Watson’s impact on the offense (quote via a team-provided transcript):“For this football team, for Deshaun and for the offense, they need to focus on playing good football this week. The big picture of what that means and that type of thing, I don’t think our guys are worried about that. We have to worry about our preparation this week and make sure that we have a good plan for Houston. We are excited that Deshaun is able to play for us. We are excited that he is back out there. The guys have enjoyed, like we mentioned, back in the room the last few weeks. Having him out on the field will bring an element to our offense that is different, but how different I think remains to be seen.”Those are just a few things to keep an eye on; now it is time to have your say. What are you looking for from the Browns in Sunday’s game against the Texans?Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In this video, Cleveland Browns Legend and Future Hall of Famer Joe Thomas talks about the impact Deshaun Watson will have on the Cleveland Browns. Joe has been around long enough to know the importance of a good quarterback, and he's impressed with Watson's abilities thus far. Deshaun Watson will return to the Cleveland Browns lineup on Sunday after serving an 11-game suspension, and head coach Kevin Stefanski is confident that the embattled quarterback "will be ready to roll" against his former team. Stefanski fielded a number of questions about Watson’s ability to perform and connect with the team after the NFL reinstated him on Monday following a lengthy suspension over allegations of sexual misconduct made by more than two dozen women. "As you know, we had Deshaun in the building for three weeks but not out on the field with us and then the last couple of weeks out on the field. Next step is obviously being out there taking all of the first team reps," Stefanski said. "He has been doing a nice job getting the defense ready with the scout team reps that he has gotten. I think he has done a nice job with his time away physically, staying sharp and mentally staying sharp so I think he will be ready to roll."Watson will make his debut for the Browns against the Houston Texans on Sunday after signing a massive five-year, fully guaranteed $230 million contract in March. He last played on Jan. 3, 2020, but despite his significant time away, Stefanski was adamant that Watson would be ready to go. "I have confidence in Deshaun based on his preparation. Really, the focus is on him just doing his job. We are still going to be all about the team effort and still offense, defense and special teams. This is never ever going to be about one person. As it relates to Deshaun, I believe in his preparation. I believe that he has worked really hard on a bunch of things to be ready to go." "I certainly get it but can’t really control that," Stefanski said of the concern about Watson’s time away from the field. "For me, for Deshaun and for all of our players, just have to keep the focus on doing our job. Think about there are some guys who don’t play preseason football, and they get in there Week 1 and need to get tackled the first time before they are ready to go. I think some of those things may be true, but I don’t want to put anything on Deshaun that I think is unfair for me to say at this point. We don’t know."Watson was accused of being sexually inappropriate with the women during massage therapy sessions while playing in Houston. He was not indicted on criminal charges by two grand juries and reached financial settlements in 23 of 24 civil lawsuits.#browns #clevelandbrowns #BrownsNews #DeshaunWatson #nflLearn more about your ad choices.

Deshaun Watson spoke for the first time since returning from his 11-game suspension on Thursday. However, the Browns quarterback kept all of his responses focused on the field and not on the last three months. “First off, I just want to say I am excited to be back," Watson said in his first public comments since Aug. 18. "I am excited to be back around my teammates. I also want to thank the Browns organization, the ownership, my teammates in that locker room and all of the coaching staff for all of the support that they had for me, especially my time away. … I also want to thank all of the Cleveland fans and the City of Cleveland for embracing me but also helping me adapt to the community. It has been awesome and it has been great being out, going to dinners and to social places being able to hang out with some of the fans and interact with them. "I also just want to thank everyone that has been sending out some positive energy towards my way. I understand you guys have a lot of questions, but with my legal team and my clinical team, there is only football questions that I can really address at this time."The personal conduct policy suspension stemmed from allegations through the legal system by more than two dozen women of sexual assault and sexual misconduct during massage appointments. A total of 26 lawsuits — 23 of which have been settled — were filed against Watson, all of them involving incidents that occurred in 2020 and early 2021 while he was still the quarterback of the Houston Texans. One lawsuit was dropped shortly after being filed in March 2021. Watson last talked to the media on the same day he and the NFL reached a settlement on his suspension length. Part of that agreement included going through a clinical evaluation, and then to follow any advised treatment. Watson would not answer the question when he was asked what he learned about himself through the treatment process. He also dodged a question about his message to those who don't believe he should be the face of a franchise in light of the allegations against him.Watson was originally handed a six-game suspension on Aug. 1 by disciplinary officer Sue L. Robinson. That suspension would've made his return to the field the Browns' Oct. 23 trip to Baltimore. The NFL appealed that suspension to commissioner Roger Goodell, who appointed former New Jersey attorney general Peter C. Harvey to hear the appeal. Before Harvey issued a ruling, though, the two sides came to a settlement of 11 games. The fact the settlement made Watson's return to Houston also his return to the field has been something that many have found odd. He reiterated what he had said at the time of the settlement, which is that he left the process in the hands of his advisers and didn't have a specific date or opponent in mind for his comeback.Now, the offense that Brissett led to those heights is handed over to a player who, when he last played nearly two years ago, was considered among the game's best quarterbacks. However, it'll be exactly 700 days since the last time Watson played a regular-season game, meaning there's been plenty of time for rust to accumulate. The only game action of any kind Watson has had since Jan. 3, 2021, was in the Browns' preseason opener at Jacksonville on Aug. 12. He played three series that night, completing 1 of 5 passes for 7 yards. Watson has been practicing with the Browns since Nov. 16. That's not the same, though, as playing in games, which is why he knows questions about rust are inevitable.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski will finally have his franchise quarterback this week when the Browns travel to Houston to take on the Texans.

Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe discuss all things Watson and the Browns on Tuesday's show. They also discuss Watson and how rusty he might be in his first game back and who he will help elevate when he takes the field.

On this postgame Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Doug Lesmerises, Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock and Irie Harris break down the Cleveland Browns' 23-17 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that lifted the Browns to 4-7 on the season. First, Doug and Mary Kay talk about what went right for the Browns and what the win might do for the team, with Deshaun Watson taking over as the starting quarterback next week. Then (14:39), Dan, Ashley and Irie join Doug to talk about whether Kevin Stefanski thought about going for 2 in the final minute of regulation. Then (16:30) the discussion turns to Jacoby Brissett and how he performed Sunday and in his 11 games as the Browns' starting quarterback. How much could this win lift the Browns? That's (24:08) the next topic, followed by a brief look at Cade York's missed field goal (33:49). Then it's the struggles of the offense in the second half (37:00), followed by David Njoku's huge touchdown catch to save the game and how much it swung the emotions around the Browns this week (46:10). Finally, Irie, Ashley and Dan each put a percentage (52:37) on how much better they think the Browns will be with Watson as opposed to Brissett.

The Browns are 3-7 after 10 games, but players are expressing this week that they still believe they have a chance to make the playoffs. It starts this week with a mathcup against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers at FirstEnergy Stadium. Mary Kay Cabot joins Dan Labbe on Wednesday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast to talk about whether the Browns still have a chance to get to the postseason even after Sunday's loss to the Bills. They also get into what Mary Kay heard and who she talked to at the Feed the Need event at TownHall in Ohio City. Lance Reisland joins Dan in the second segment of the podcast to dig into the Browns' loss to the Bills. Why do the same things keep going wrong? What's wrong with the rushing offense? What has made Jacoby Brissett so effective? Lastly, Dan does his NFL Playoff Committee of 1, picking the seven NFL playoff teams from each conference committee-style, just like college football.

In this video Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the current state of the Cleveland Browns and their starting quarterback, Jacoby Brissett. You might be surprised to know just how good Jacoby Brissett has been since joining the Browns in December. Tune in to find out why I think he's been so successful and whether or not the Browns can keep this up. If you're a Browns fan, this is a must-watch video!
Jacoby Brissett has Taken Flawed Browns Team as Far as He's Capable. Cleveland Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett lit up the stat sheet with 324 yards passing and three touchdowns, but the team still fell short. It's an indictment of the defense and special teams, but it shows the limitations of a Brissett-led offense. Jacoby Brissett completed 68.2 percent of his passes, threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns and it wasn't enough to defeat the Buffalo Bills.. He did everything he could to help the Browns win this game and it wasn't enough to win, which is every bit an indictment of the current team in addition to illustrating what the Browns are still missing at the quarterback position.
Brissett has overperformed expectations and negated any further conversations about acquiring another veteran quarterback. He's been valuable in a leadership role and excelled enough that Deshaun Watson was an after thought for most of his suspension, which was critical on a number of fronts.
But baked into some of the success Brissett is having is the fact that defenses are allowing it by focusing all of their attention on stopping the bigger threat in running back Nick Chubb. Brissett threw for 324 yards and Chubb rushed for just 19 yards. Chubb chipped in 48 receiving yards, which was a pleasant surprise.
The Browns had seven offensive drives that produced a combined three points. They were bookended by the first drive of the game which scored a touchdown, a Browns staple, and the last two drives that resulted in touchdowns when the Browns attempted to engineer a comeback. Brissett isn't the major reason the Browns didn't capitalize on those seven drives. He would've had another touchdown pass had either tight end Harrison Bryant or Pharaoh Brown been able to come down with back to back passes that hit them in the hands.
The botched snap fumble had more to with Hjalte Froholdt playing at center in place of Ethan Pocic, who left the game with a knee injury. Brissett had nothing to do with the blocked field goal but he was involved in the drive that necessitated the attempt.
The problem is that they struggle with consistency. Too much needs to go right with Brissett in order for them to succeed. A holding penalty, false start or sack too often ends an offensive drive for the Browns. Brissett was sharp in this game, but teams count on the fact that he's going to miss a few shots like the one to Bryant where he had a chance to catch a touchdown in the back of the end zone but couldn't get the second foot down as a result of a high throw caused by pressure.
Brissett has done everything the Browns have asked. He is the quarterback that was in place as Amari Cooper proved to be the number one receiver the team has needed for years, saw David Njoku become a franchise tight end the Browns have desperately needed him to become and helped Donovan Peoples-Jones take the next step in his development, which may lead to a contract extension of his own. Brissett deserves credit for putting the offense in the position that Watson doesn't need to work miracles in order to succeed. If it's feasible Brissett can stay on as the backup for the Browns, that could be a move that is not only good karma for the Browns, but could a good will gesture that means something to the rest of the locker room. Nevertheless, Brissett is a backup for a reason. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Browns aren't mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, but the outlook is bleak after their loss to the Bills on Sunday to drop to 3-7. Assuming they don't make a run, what is there left for fans to watch as they play out the string? It's one of the questions our Football Insider subscribers has on today's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Mary Kay and Dan Labbe discuss this question and more. Will Joe Woods survive until the end of the season? If not, who could replace him? What's the future at both tackle positions? What would Mary Kay advise Andrew Berry to do this offseason?

In this instant recap, Garrett Bush, Jeff Lloyd and John Kosko go inside the Cleveland Browns vs. Buffalo Bills matchup and give their thoughts on the game and deliver the Highest and Lowest PFF Grades . The Browns started off strong, but eventually cooled off and lost the game 31-23. As always on the UCSS Postgame Show, we'll give our analysis and opinions on the game, as well as all the key details you need to know. Make sure to check out our full Cleveland Browns vs. Buffalo Bills recap to get all the information you need!
The Cleveland Browns started its game against the Buffalo Bills in style as Jacoby Brissett connected with Amari Cooper on a long touchdown pass on the opening drive. Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs & the rest of the Bills offense was non-existent for the majority of the first half, but Allen found the end zone for the first time in the final seconds of the half to give Buffalo momentum heading into the break.
The second half was all Buffalo, as the Bills shook off any snowstorm rust and fired on all cylinders down the stretch. Sean McDermott's squad needed a win after two consecutive losses entering this contest, and are now 7-3 on the year. With the loss, the Browns fall to 3-7 on the season with one game remaining before Deshaun Watson returns to action.

This postgame Orange and Brown Talk Podcast breaks down Buffalo's 31-23 win over the Browns on Sunday. Mary Kay Cabot checks in off the top to discuss with Doug Lesmerises what went wrong for the Browns and whether this teams someone to provide a kick in the pants. Then (12:23), Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock and Irie Harris join Doug to discuss the leadership issue and to discuss why the Browns keep starting hot on offense and then falling apart. The last segment (30:41) makes a comparison to self-driving cars and asks why, after the Browns moved on from Baker Mayfield in pursuit of a Super Bowl-level quarterback, they wouldn't view their coaching situation the same way. Because the view right now is that the Browns are not that well-coached. Thanks for listening to Orange and Brown Talk. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Browns at Bills Predictions For Week 11 NFL Game Moved To Detroit The Browns followed up their win over Cincinnati with a loss to the Dolphins in their last game. They will try to bounce back from the loss with a win over the Bills, which will give them their second win in their last three games.Cleveland is averaging 24.1 points per game. They are throwing for 217.1 yards and rushing for 158.8 yards per game. Jacoby Brissett completed 63 percent of his passes for 212 yards and one touchdown in the loss to the Dolphins. Nick Chubb had 11 carries for 693 yards and one touchdown, while Donovan Peoples-Jones had five catches for 99 yards. Cleveland has struggled defensively, giving up 26.4 points per game. They gave up 39 points in their last game and will need to play better if they want to win this game. Don’t look now, but the Buffalo Bills have suddenly lost back-to-back games and are in third place in the AFC East. They look to get back on track this week against the Cleveland Browns and are more than a touchdown favorite. The NFL moved this game to Detroit due to the blizzard due to hit Buffalo this weekend. The massive snowstorm could dump several feet of snow on the area and cause issues for team travel, fan travel and the game. The over/under went as low as 41 points after opening at 47 points and it’ll probably go above that number now with this game being played indoors. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET from Detroit. The game will be televised on CBS. The big issue for the Bills the past few weeks has been some sloppy play from superstar quarterback Josh Allen who has suddenly developed some turnover issues. He has thrown six interceptions over Buffalo’s past three games and also lost a crucial fumble in the end zone that allowed Minnesota to take a late lead on Sunday. Even though Allen led a game-tying field goal drive to send the game into overtime, he ended the game with a terrible interception in the end zone. The Bills have one of the league’s best offenses, but they have no running game outside of Allen, who leads the team with 476 yards rushing. They need more from their running backs, and they need Allen to do a better job protecting the football if they are going to get back on track. The turnover problems in recent weeks have already put a dent in their quest for a bye week and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Cleveland still has one of the league’s best running backs, Nick Chubb, to help carry its offense, but everything else has fallen off a cliff as the season has progressed. The Browns enter the game, having lost five of their past six games to rapidly drop them out of contention in the AFC playoff race. The goal was to stay in contention long enough for Deshaun Watson to come back from his suspension and maybe give the offense a lift, but that has not happened. For whatever problems the offense has had, the defense has been a much bigger issue and has allowed 26.4 points per game. Only the Detroit Lions have been worst.

NFL Week 8 Game Recap: Cleveland Browns 32, Cincinnati Bengals 13
Coming off four straight losses, the Cleveland Browns were able to finally pick up a victory, dominating the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in a 32-13 blowout victory at FirstEnergy Stadium Monday night. The win moved the Browns 3-5 on the season while the Bengals fell to 4-3, as both teams trail the 5-3 Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North. Offensive spotlight: Browns QB Jacoby Brissett put together a winning performance Monday night, finishing 17-of-22 for 278 passing yards and a touchdown. Brissett's 12.6 yards per attempt and 94.7% adjusted completion rate on first review were both impressive marks. Browns RB Nick Chubb and WR Amari Cooper also played a huge part in the team's victory. Chubb continued to show why he's probably the best pure runner in the NFL, finishing with 101 rushing yards and two touchdowns from 23 carries. The Georgia product also picked up five first downs and forced four missed tackles. Cooper totaled five receptions from seven targets for 131 receiving yards and a touchdown en route to a game-high (min. five receiving snaps) 5.24 yards per route run on first review. Turn on any Browns game and edge defender Myles Garrett is probably the best player on the field — and that proved to be true against Monday night. The Texas A&M dominated as a pass-rushing, posting eight pressures, two sacks and a 32.3% pass-rush win rate. If it weren't for Dallas Cowboys star defender Micah Parsons and San Francisco 49ers edge defender Nick Bosa, Garrett would be the runaway favorite for the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year award. Bengals rookie left guard Cordell Volson‘s pass-blocking was a bright spot during an otherwise dreadful evening for the Bengals offense, as the fourth-round pick allowed just two pressures across 40 pass-blocking snaps on first review. The Browns offensive line stifled the Bengals' pass-rush all evening, allowing just two pressures across 26 snaps in pass protection on first review. Cincinnati's interior trio —left guard Joel Bitonio, center Ethan Pocic and right guard Hjalte Froholdt — were notably impressive in pass protection, allowing zero total pressures combined. Led by Myles Garrett (1.5 sacks) and Sione Takitaki (13 tackles, one sack), the Browns defense shouldered the load early while their offense warmed up. The unit didn't let up once Cleveland's offense got going, as the Browns limited Cincinnati to just one trip inside the red zone while holding Burrow and Co. to just 15 first downs and 4 of 10 on third down. The Browns offensive line, despite suffering an in-game injury to Jack Conklin, dominated the Bengals defensive front. The unit -- which received a solid effort from Conklin's replacement, second-year man James Hudson -- paved the way for Chubb, Hunt and the rest of the Browns to run for 172 yards and three touchdowns on 44 carries. The line also gave Brissett time to complete several clutch passes that extended scoring drives. The Browns head into their Week 9 bye. Cleveland's players may spend some of their bye week packing their suitcases, as four of the Browns' first five games after their bye will be on the road. The road trip starts with games against AFC East foes Miami and Buffalo before wrapping up with these Bengals in Week 14. Cincinnati will host Carolina on a short week before going on its bye week. Like Cleveland, the Bengals will have consecutive road games following their bye week. They'll face the Steelers on "Sunday Night Football" in Week 11 before heading to Nashville for a rematch of last year's divisional round thriller. Learn more about your ad choices.

The scariest part of Halloween in 2022 was the Cleveland Browns defense on Monday Night Football against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Myles Garrett and company sacked Joe Burrow nearly a half dozen times, forcing the All-Pro QB to turn the ball over multiple times in an AFC Division showdown.
This was by far the Browns best performance of the year, dominating both sides of the line of scrimmage in the win.
Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, Donovan Peoples-Jones & Amari Cooper all did their parts as Jacoby Brissett methodically moved the ball up and down the field against the Bengals.
With the win, the Browns move to 3-5 on the season heading into the bye week. LinkedIn LinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

The Cleveland Browns will try to continue their dominance of their in-state rivals when they host the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football. The Browns (2-5) have lost four straight games, but they have won four in a row and seven of the past eight in this AFC North rivalry. The Bengals (4-3) have won four of their past five, with their only setback during that span a 19-17 loss to the Ravens in Week 5. The Browns (2-5) lost 23-20 to the Ravens in Week 7, while Joe Burrow torched the Falcons for 481 passing yards in a 35-17 Bengals victory last Sunday. Cincinnati leads the all-time series 51-46 but has not won in Cleveland since 2017. Bengals star receiver Ja'Marr Chase is out with a hip injury. Kickoff in Cleveland is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET. Caesars Sportsbook lists Cincinnati as the 3-point favorite in the latest Browns vs. Bengals odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 45. Kickoff in Cleveland is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET. Caesars Sportsbook lists Cincinnati as the 3-point favorite in the latest Browns vs. Bengals odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 45. Cincinnati is reeling from the news that star receiver Ja'Marr Chase could miss six weeks with a hip injury, but Burrow still has talent at his disposal. Tyler Boyd led the team with 166 receiving yards last week and running back Joe Mixon has 587 total yards. Mixon could see more work Monday against a Cleveland defense that ranks 24th against the run, or the Bengals could aim to strike quickly to neutralize Cleveland's run game. The Browns allow almost 27 points per game (29th in NFL). Burrow is 24-13 ATS in his career, and Cincinnati is 8-1 ATS in its past nine road games.
The Bengals are 13-2 against the spread in their past 15 overall. Their defense allows fewer than 19 points per game, seventh in the league, and is ninth against the pass, yielding 202 yards per contest. The Browns threw for fewer than 100 yards against Baltimore and average 214 passing yards (22nd), so Cincinnati can stack up against the run. Cleveland also has given the ball away 10 times. Burrow has thrown five interceptions, but four came in the season-opener. Cincinnati is 10-1 ATS in its past 11 conference games, while the Browns are on a 4-13 ATS slide in AFC North matchups.
Cleveland won the last meeting 21-16, a Week 18 matchup that saw the Bengals resting their starters for the playoffs and the Browns playing out the string. The Browns dominated the matchup in Cincinnati in Week 9, with running back Nick Chubb going off for 137 yards on 14 carries. The fifth-year back out of Georgia leads the NFL in both rushing yards (470 yards) and rushing TDs (eight) and averages 5.9 yards per carry. He faces a defense that ranks 18th in the NFL against the run (119 yards per game), while Cleveland averages 163 per game (fourth).
The underdog is 5-0 against the spread in the past five matchups and Burrow is 0-3 straight-up against the Browns in his career. He was sacked five times and threw two interceptions in his Week 9 start and has been sacked 24 times in the first seven games. Myles Garrett is banged up but expected to play, and he has three sacks over the past two games. Underdogs have been covering at a 58-percent clip in the NFL this season, going 61-44-2 through the first seven weeks. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Browns running back Kareem Hunt is the focus of trade speculation as the Browns gear up to face the Bengals on Monday Night Football. The NFL's trade deadline is Tuesday. Our Football Insider subscribers had questions about Hunt and his trade market for Mary Kay Cabot on today's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. They also wanted to know why Hunt hasn't been used in the passing game more. Mary Kay answered those questions and more with Dan Labbe. They also discussed Kevin Stefanski's performance without Deshaun Watson, talent acquisition and, with Joe Haden retiring as a Brown this weekend, the decision the Browns made to release Haden.

On the heels of a four-game losing streak, the Cleveland Browns will host the Cincinnati Bengals on Halloween as the two teams face off on Monday Night Football. It’s the first meeting of the season for the two Ohio-based franchises, and Cleveland has been in control of this rivalry for the past couple of years. Cincinnati hasn’t been shy about saying this game means more to them because of that, which should make it an interesting showdown. Here, we look ahead to the rivalry game and make five bold predictions for Week 8.
The Cincinnati Bengals got swept by the Cleveland Browns in 2021 and will be out for revenge in Week 8. Can they defeat a tough Browns side?The AFC North is heating up with the Bengals and Ravens breaking away from the pack in Week 7. Cincy currently sits in second place but holds the same 4-3 record as Baltimore. After a resounding victory over the Falcons, the Bengals appear primed to return to their 2021 form and will look to string together important wins ahead of their BYE week. According to FanDuel, the Bengals are 3-point favorites with a moneyline of -166 while the Browns' moneyline sits at +140. The over/under is set at 47 points. Even with the Browns being at home, the Bengals are still favored, which is to be expected after this past week's results.
All hail Joe Burrow. The star Bengals quarterback went off in Week 7 for 501 total yards and four touchdowns; since his pitiful Week 1 performance, Burrow has thrown 13 touchdowns and just one interception. We expect Burrow to continue his dominant streak against the Browns, who have a middling pass defense and will face a difficult challenge in containing Cincy's elite wideouts. Cleveland running backs Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt have wreaked havoc on opponents so far this season, yet the Bengals boast one of the best run defenses in the league and can feasibly contain the duo. As long as Burrow doesn't suddenly regress to his Week 1 form, we're predicting a close game in which the Bengals nonetheless come out on top. Bengals win, 24-17. Learn more about your ad choices.

5 head coaches on the hot seat ahead of the 2022 NFL trade deadline. The 2022 NFL season is a season of “parity.” Translation: most NFL teams stink this season. There are only six out of 16 AFC teams over .500 heading into Week 7 and just four out of 16 in the NFC. With all these lackluster records a third of the way through the season, it’s time to take a look at the NFL coach hot seat. With the trade deadline looming on November 1, several NFL coaches need to be worried about their jobs. Here are the five head coaches on the hottest NFL hot seat as that crucial deadline nears.
5 Ron Rivera
The 2022 NFL season is a season of “parity.” Translation: most NFL teams stink this season. There are only six out of 16 AFC teams over .500 heading into Week 7 and just four out of 16 in the NFC. With all these lackluster records a third of the way through the season, it’s time to take a look at the NFL coach hot seat. With the trade deadline looming on November 1, several NFL coaches need to be worried about their jobs. Here are the five head coaches on the hottest NFL hot seat as that crucial deadline nears.
4 Lovie Smith
When the Houston Texans hired Lovie Smith this offseason, it always felt like a temporary measure. The club was reportedly high on the inexperienced former NFL quarterback Josh McCown but turned to Smith after Brian Flores sued the NFL (h/t NBC Sports). The Texans are 1-3-1 after failing to build on an optimistic tie vs. the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1. And, owner Cal McNair just fired Executive Vice President of Football operations Jack Easterby.
3 Nathaniel Hackett
The Denver Broncos have to be the most surprisingly disappointing team in the NFL in 2022. The league’s national TV schedule confirms this. With new QB Russell Wilson and talent all around the field, the league, and its TV partners put the Broncos on in primetime in four of the first six weeks of the season. As any NFL fan who watches games knows all too well, Nathaniel Hackett and the Broncos have gone 1-3 in those games, scoring just 52 points in those televised contests. The offense with Wilson is a complete mess, and Hackett, the former Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator, seems to have no answers as to how they can fix it.
2 Kliff Kingsbury
The best thing you can say about Kliff Kingsbury and the Arizona Cardinals 2022 season is that at least they’re not following the same old pattern. In the past two seasons, the team has gotten off to fast starts before collapsing down the stretch. This season, Kyler Murray and company definitely haven’t started fast. The Cardinals have fallen behind in every game they’ve played this season and have scored just three first-quarter points in six games. Murray has led his team on some astonishing comebacks, but obviously, something isn’t working out in the desert.
1 Kevin Stefanski
The goal for the Cleveland Browns this year was simply to keep the team’s playoff chances alive until Week 13 when Deshaun Watson comes back from his suspension to face his old team, the Houston Texans. At 2-4 after six weeks, those playoff chances are likely gone. With the Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers coming up, chances are the team will be 4-7 at best when Watson returns, and the playoff hopes will be over. Stefanski went 11-5 in his first season with the Browns but has been 10-13 since. With the Watson trade and contract, owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam have gone all-in on building a winner, no matter the (financial or moral) cost. The team’s first-time NFL head coach simply isn’t getting it done. And that makes Kevin Stefanski a candidate for the NFL hot seat, and likely the most realistic candidate to lose his job by the trade deadline. Learn more about your ad choices.

It seems like the Cleveland Browns season has already come down to this, we are focusing on NFL trade rumors but not on this team acquiring players. While the QB play around the league is down and the team opened with what seemed to be an easy schedule, the Browns sit at 2-5 and talk about trading one of their running backs is reasonable. With the NFL trade deadline around the corner, the Christian McCaffrey trade may have helped Cleveland but the New York Jets trading for James Robinson took a suitor off the table. The biggest name floating around is RB Kareem Hunt. Hunt was one of the best backs in the NFL during his time in Kansas City and has been an important part of the Browns successful run game during his time with his hometown team. Sadly, it looks like that relationship will end no later than the end of this season. Can GM Andrew Berry find value in a trade for Hunt or should he hold on to him and hope for better value in a compensatory pick? According to an anonymous general manager, Hunt should have value: “Hunt would be the best back on the market, and it’s not even close,” said one GM who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he is not allowed to discuss other teams’ rosters. Whether that means Hunt gets traded or not in the next six days will depend on the return and the impact Berry thinks dealing him would have on the team. With a lot of draft assets traded away to acquire QB Deshaun Watson, getting even a fourth-round pick or a young defensive player would probably be worth it to the team. Would you trade Hunt? If so, what do you think is a reasonable return for him? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Browns are off to a 2-5 start, but their future, both short and longterm, is tied to the return of Deshaun Watson. The expectations is their $230 million dollar quarterback will return from suspension and, even if it's too late this season, he will lead them into a new era of winning Browns football. Are the Browns relying too much on Watson's return? One of our Football Insider subscribers asked the question for the Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe went through questions from our Football Insider subscribers about Watson, Kevin Stefanski's playcalling and more. Want to get involved in Football Insider?

Browns HC Stefanski: Yelling in Locker Room After Loss to Ravens Is 'Normal Football' Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski downplayed the significance of his team's reaction to a 23-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. According to multiple reports, there was audible yelling coming from Cleveland's locker room. Stefanski chalked it up as "normal football."Browns star Myles Garrett added it reflected how badly the players wanted to win the game:
The Browns have now dropped four in a row and sit last in the AFC North at 2-5. Exacerbating the team's frustration, four of its five losses have come by three points or fewer. The circumstances of Sunday's defeat left plenty of fans asking questions of the officiating crew. Cade York had an opportunity to tie the game on a 55-yard field goal with 2:09 left. However, a false start penalty moved the offense back five yards, and York's 60-yard attempt was blocked. What led to the flag wasn't clear to the naked eye. That sums up Cleveland's luck at the moment. The Browns outgained Baltimore 336-254 and averaged two more yards per play. The defense sacked Lamar Jackson three times and held him to 120 passing yards on 16 attempts. Still, it wasn't enough for Stefanski's squad to come out on the winning end.
Attempting to make anything of the response inside the Browns' locker room feels like an exercise in confirmation bias. If you remain bullish on Cleveland, then it's an example of how much the players care and how focused they'll be heading into Week 8. If you're less enthusiastic about the team, it shows how the franchise is spiraling further toward dysfunction. Regardless of where you sit on that spectrum, the hard truth is that losing to the Cincinnati Bengals to slip to 2-6 heading into their Week 9 bye would be a significant blow to the Browns' playoff hopes.

Lamar Jackson promised to put on a show on Sunday, and while the Browns pushed the Ravens to the very end, he and the Ravens held on for a 23-20 victory in a big AFC North showdown. Cleveland’s Cade York lined up for a potential game-tying 60-yard field goal attempt with 2:01 left, and it was deflected wide and left by Malik Harrison.
The Browns had one last-ditch chance at a miracle finish, but Donovan Peoples-Jones was forced to fumble after a 19-yard catch as time expired. The Ravens recovered, but without any timeouts, the Browns wouldn’t have had time to line up for another play anyway. Jackson orchestrated a vintage Jackson drive at the end of the first half to give the Ravens their first lead of the game, 13-10, with 1:57 left in the half.
Facing a third and 11 from the Browns’ 19, Jackson slipped away from Myles Garrett and found receiver Rashod Bateman wide open for a 26-yard pass down the right side. Ronnie Harrison missed the tackle and Bateman rumbled for another 10 yards. Jackson ran for 10 yards on a third and 3, weaving past John Johnson III in the backfield. He found tight end Isaiah Likely over the middle for 16 yards to the 17 and then ran it again himself for 10 to the 7. Gus Edwards took it from there, finding a gaping hole on the left side for the 7-yard TD run.
Brissett took over at his 12 after a holding call on the kickoff return, and it looked good when Marcus Peters was flagged 15 yards for pass interference to the Ravens’ 40. Linebacker Justin Houston lit it up from there, sacking Brissett on back-to-back plays, and stripping him on the second. They punted two plays later from near midfield, and the Ravens ran one more play from their 8 before jogging to the locker room. The Browns were fortunate to be down only 13-10 at the half. Early in the second quarter, receiver Devin Duvernay ripped off a 46-yard punt return to the Browns’ 21, with D’Ernest Johnson losing contain. But the Ravens moved only 5 yards to the 16 before Owusu-Koramoah blitzed and defended the pass to Kenyan Drake. Baltimore settled for a 34-yard Tucker field goal that made it 10-6 with 10:05 left in the half. LinkedIn LinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked on Browns Podcast give their Browns vs. Ravens Predictions. They also ask how Can The Browns Defense Slow Down Lamar Jackson? The Cleveland Browns are aiming to arrest a three-game slide as they travel to Maryland and face the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium in Week 7. The Browns have lost their last three contests and hope to win against their division rival to move up in the AFC North. Here are our Browns Week 7 predictions as they take on the Ravens.
The Browns’ disappointing season reached a new low last week when they were defeated 38-15 by the New England Patriots headed by rookie backup QB Bailey Zappe. Given how bad the Browns’ defense has been this season, it’s difficult to imagine them doing any better here against Lamar Jackson. Remember that even if newly acquired Deion Jones makes his debut, Cleveland has allowed an average of 399 total yards (fifth-worst) and 30.3 points (third-worst) over the previous three games.
On the other side of the field, the Ravens have occasionally looked impressive this season. However, they have yet to win back-to-back games. They were defeated in Week 6 by the New York Giants in a game where Baltimore produced 406 total yards to their opponent’s 238. With all these in mind, here are our four bold predictions for the Browns in their Week 7 game against the Ravens.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson has been outstanding this season. So far, he leads the Ravens in both passing and running yards. Jackson currently has 1,277 yards throwing, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions. He also has a completion rate of 62 percent. His best game was in Week 2 when he threw for 318 yards and had a 72 percent completion rate.
In this game, Jackson will face a Browns pass defense that isn’t great by any stretch. In fact, they have allowed 240 air yards a game this season. Even with guys like Denzel Ward and Grant Delpit, this secondary has just struggled big time. As such, Jackson has the potential to have a spectacular performance in this game. We expect him to pepper this Browns secondary non-stop and go upwards of 250+ passing yards. Browns DE Myles Garrett has an injured shoulder, but he still intends to play this week after exiting the game early last Sunday. Of course, his presence will be crucial for the Browns, who need to find any way to stifle Jackson. Garrett is obviously among the best pass rushers in the game, and he is coming off a game where he sacked Zappe twice. Despite his hurting shoulder, he should play here and still be a scary presence on defense. We have him meeting and greeting Jackson at least once in this game.
Browns WR Amari Cooper has played in all six Browns games so far. He currently averages double-digit targets to go along with a touchdown in four of those contests. Cooper has a 28 percent target share and a 37 percent air yard share. That’s a lot of weekly volume, and he’s a favorite red-zone and end-zone target for Jacoby Brissett. Browns RB Nick Chubb is the driving force behind the Browns’ offense. To illustrate, he has rushed for 649 yards and seven touchdowns on 110 attempts. He had been fairly consistent on the year, though he had his worst outing last week. He finished with only 56 yards and zero touchdowns against a determined Patriots ground defense.
That won’t change in Week 7, where the Browns need as much offense as they can get. It has been a few weeks since he has reached the 100-yard threshold, but we can imagine him doing that here against the Ravens. Take note that the Ravens have given up the second-most yards to wide receivers so far this season. That should have Cooper salivating. We also have him recording his fifth touchdown of the season.

Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Locked On Browns Podcast joins Kevin Oestreicher of The Locked On Ravens to Preview The NFL Week 7 Matchup between the Browns vs. Ravens. Will Jacoby Brissett Rebound Against The Ravens?
The Cleveland Browns visit the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7 of the 2022 NFL Season. The Cleveland Browns just lost to the New England Patriots in a game that was closer than the final score indicated. The Ravens just lost another game when they lead in the fourth quarter with the Giants coming back to win. This should be an interesting game with both teams needing to rebound. Let’s take a look at the odds and make some picks and predictions for this game! In this video, we preview the Browns vs. Ravens game and ask the question: will Jacoby Brissett rebound against the Ravens?
On today's Locked On Browns podcast, we discuss the Browns vs. Ravens game and ask the question: will Jacoby Brissett rebound against the Ravens? Many Browns fans are wondering if Brissett can succeed against a Ravens defense that has traditionally been very stingy against the Browns. Tune in to find out!
The Baltimore Ravens are 6.5-point home favorites and are also at -280 on the money line. The over/under is also at 46.5. Baltimore being the favorites here and by that much makes a lot of sense because they have all the talent of a very good team, but just haven’t been able to close out the games that they’ve lost. The over/under also makes sense because the Ravens have a very good offense and Cleveland can score as well, but they’re just inconsistent. This spread could move, but it seems like it’ll stay around this number.
Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens Prediction The pick: Baltimore -6.5
The Cleveland Browns seem like they might be reeling and on a downward spiral. Baltimore has proven to collapse in the second half of games, but it seems like the Browns might be struggling way more. The Browns have one of the best running games in the league, with them averaging 172 yards on the ground, but for whatever reason they have gone away from that dominant running attack in recent weeks. The biggest example of this was last week when the Browns just had 70 yards on the ground. The tandem of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt is one of the best in the whole league and for the Browns to have any chance in this game they need to establish the run and not rely on Jacoby Brissett as the bulk of their offense.
The Baltimore Ravens have been a team that’s had a roller coaster of a season up to this point. The games they’ve lost were lost in the second half after each team came back in the fourth quarter. The key for the Ravens in this game is what their defense can do because they have not been great this year, especially against the pass. The biggest difference here might be the fact that the Ravens have Lamar Jackson and the Browns don’t. That’s reason enough to like this bet too. Learn more about your ad choices.

Browns safety John Johnson III indicated on Wednesday that some Browns players need to do a better job of taking their work home with them, making sure they were putting in the extra time to get things turned around. Other players have also put it on them and their teammates to get this seasons pointed in the right direction. Have we already reached an inflection point? Will we look back at this week and say it was when things turned around or when they really went south? Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discussed that as well as what it means if the Browns don't have Wyatt Teller on Sunday and look at some other injured players whose statuses they're keeping an eye on for this week.

'It's a commitment thing': John Johnson III believes Browns defense needs full dedication
BEREA − It's a motto that is linked to a completely different NFL franchise. However, Browns safety John Johnson III believes there's something to be said about the Raiders' "Commitment to excellence" mantra. Specifically, Johnson believes there's something the Browns defense can take from the first word of that motto to change the trajectory of what has been one of the league's worst defenses statistically. "Yeah, it's a commitment thing," Johnson said Wednesday. "When practice is over and our day is done, you can't just run out of the building and forget about your job. I think we need everyone in this building to really be a 100% in on the task at hand. Right now I think we're at a place where that's not the case. So whatever we gotta do to get as many guys, if not everyone in on the same page I think that's what it is. Because that's the only way things are going to change."
The Browns defense is currently tied for 23rd in the league, allowing 361.3 yards a game, entering Sunday's game at Baltimore. They're tied for 30th in points allowed at 27.2 points a game. The pass defense, which had been better against Pittsburgh and Atlanta, even the Los Angeles Chargers, allowed Patriots rookie Bailey Zappe to throw for 309 yards in just his second start. The Browns are 19th in pass defense with 229.8 yards a game. The run defense, which was better against New England after being gashed by the Falcons and Chargers, is 24th at 131.5 yards per game. That's where the talk about commitment comes into play. Specifically, it's where the talk about a commitment to accountability to finally change those statistics. Johnson isn't the first one to speak on the commitment subject since the Browns dropped their third consecutive game last Sunday to the New England Patriots. He's just the most established player on the defense, at least in terms of years in the league, to bring it up.
Linebacker Sione Takitaki spoke along a similar vein on Monday, a day after the Patriots loss. The message was one formulated by the leadership group among the Browns players shortly after the game. Both Johnson and Takitaki are among the handful of Browns defenders who have at least four years in the league. The former is in his fifth season in the NFL, and second in Cleveland, and the latter is in his fourth season after being drafted in the third round in 2019 by the Browns.
Outside of nine-year pro Jadeveon Clowney and seventh-year pro Myles Garrett, there's few more experienced that those two on the defense. Now, it's about that message getting through across the defense in time for Sunday's game. That change starts with the preparation each player puts in during a given week. The Browns' work day generally starts before 8 a.m. and last until at least 5 p.m., between on-field and off-the-field work.What players like Johnson believe is that's not enough time dedicated to the work. As with anything someone may want to master, there's work away from the organized training that is necessary. Among the ideas has been film study away from the facility, extra time dedicated to looking not just at the opponent, but at themselves. It's all about figuring out ways to show up on Sunday, specifically this Sunday against the Ravens, ready to play at their highest level.

The Browns are off to a disappointing start this season and their quarterback play has left a lot to be desired the last few weeks. Is it time for them to consider at least a package of plays for Joshua Dobbs? Would it provide a spark? Our Football Insider subscribers wanted to know about Dobbs and more on today's Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Why weren't Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt utilized more on Sunday? Why is Jacoby Brissett struggling? Are the struggles on defense a coaching issue or a team-building problem?

Are the Cleveland Browns coaching staff on the hot seat? It sure looks that way after another loss, this time to the Pittsburgh Steelers. In this episode of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show, host Garrett Bush takes a look at the latest news and rumors surrounding the Cleveland Browns coaching staff.
The Cleveland Browns were the latest team to get “Zapped” by the New England Patriots and rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe, who now owns a 2-0 record as a starter to begin his NFL career.The Patriots beat the Browns 38-15 in Cleveland due to a highly efficient performance from Zappe and a dominant effort from New England’s defense. Offensive spotlight: Zappe went 24-of-34 for 309 yards with two touchdowns and zero interceptions. Based on PFF's first review, he got rid of the ball at an average 2.61-second clip. He didn’t make any big-time throws but also wasn’t marked with any turnover-worthy plays. The Patriots made effective use of play action, as Zappe went 6-of-7 for 144 yards and a touchdown with a play fake. Zappe was also penalized for delay of game and intentional grounding, so it wasn’t all positives from the rookie, but it was still an impressive display in just his second career start.
Defensive spotlight: Browns edge defender Myles Garrett was battling through injuries during the game but finished with two sacks, including a strip sack, and three hurries. He finished the game with a game-high 24-percent pass-rush win rate.
Rookie spotlight: Patriots rookie wide receiver Tyquan Thornton saw extended playing time with Nelson Agholor (hamstring) inactive and Kendrick Bourne (toe) banged up. He caught four passes for 37 yards with his first career receiving touchdown and also carried the ball twice for 17 yards with his first rushing touchdown. He forced one missed tackle as a receiver. New England has been impressed with Thornton in practice, and his development is showing on the game field.
Offensive line spotlight: Patriots right tackle Isaiah Wynn is having a rough go in a contract year. He moved from left to right tackle this offseason and was spelled by Marcus Cannon for a stretch in the third consecutive game after allowing a sack and hurry in addition to being charged with a false start.There weren’t many positives for Cleveland in this game, but its offensive line only allowed 10 total pressures on first review. Browns right guard Wyatt Teller left the game with a calf injury and didn’t return, so that’s a situation to monitor.
Cleveland fans have gone through a rollercoaster of emotions in the span of 16 hours coming off of the Guardians stunning victory and the Browns frustrating loss. If you stayed up late last night to celebrate the Cleveland Guardians thrilling come from behind, walk-off win at Progressive Field, you would have seen Cleveland sports fans jubilantly celebrating throughout the streets of downtown Cleveland.Unfortunately, the Cleveland Browns provided their fans with the exact opposite set of emotions while getting pummeled by Bill Belichick and a 3rd string quarterback.
RELATED: Ouch! Listless Cleveland Browns embarrassed by New England Patriots 38-15The only silver lining, and I mean only, was Myles Garrett breaking the official Browns career sack record in the first quarter of Sunday's game.
RELATED: Myles Garrett becomes Cleveland Browns' career leader in sacks Understandably so, Browns fans took to social media to vent after they saw the team once again look lost on defense allowing 3rd string QB Bailey Zappe to complete 24/34 passes for 309 yards and 2 touchdowns.Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked on Browns Podcast bring you your daily Cleveland Browns Podcast.

The Cleveland Browns lost their week match-up to the New England Patriots by a score of 34-16. In this video, we take a look at all 3 phases of the game and how they stunk. From the first quarter to the fourth, the Browns offense was nonexistent, and the defense gave up 34 points. The running game was nonexistent, and the Browns were forced to pass the ball almost every time. The special teams were also horrible, allowing two returns for touchdowns.
It's the ultimate Cleveland sports show as we give our immediate reaction to the NFL Browns vs. Patriots game! We talk about all the key match-ups and give our predictions for the game. Let's hope we're right and the Browns can pull out the win! Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and the Locked on Browns Podcast gives his reaction the Browns vs. Patriots Game. G.Bush believes that Browns Defensive Coordinator Joe Woods needs to relinquished of his duties. The offense was trash as well against the Patriots. Jacoby Brissett throws 2 INTs and loses fumble, defense horrible as Browns lose 38-15 to Patriots and fall to 2-4.
Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett headed into the Patriots game Sunday vowing to be better after throwing late interceptions in back-to-back losses to the Falcons and Chargers.
Instead, he threw two interceptions — including one on the second play of the game — and lost a fumble when the ball slipped out of his hand late in the game en route to a 38-15 loss to the Patriots (3-3) at FirstEnergy Stadium. When Brissett wasn’t busy turning the ball over, the defense was blowing coverages against Bailey Zappe, a third-string, fourth-round quarterback starting his second NFL game.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast was joined Locked On Patriots Podcast to preview the Week 6 Matchup between the Browns vs. Patriots The New England Patriots shut out the NFL's No. 1 scoring offense in Week 5 with a 29-0 win over the Detroit Lions. Will they carry that momentum into Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the Browns in Cleveland?
History is in the Patriots' favor.
They have won four consecutive games and eight of the last nine versus the Browns. Cleveland's only win during that span was a 2010 matchup highlighted by running back Peyton Hillis racking up 184 yards and two touchdowns. Despite the Browns' lack of recent success against the Patriots, oddsmakers have made Cleveland a slight favorite to win Sunday.
Here are the opening betting lines for this game, via DraftKings Sportsbook:
Spread: Patriots +3 (-115), Browns -3 (-105) Moneyline: Patriots +130, Lions -150 Over/Under: Over 42.5 points (-110), Under 42.5 points (-110) The Patriots are 7-2 against the spread (ATS) in their last nine games versus the Browns, and they are 17-3 straight up in their last 20 matchups with AFC North opponents. The Browns also are 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games.
Sunday's game could come down to Cleveland's ability to stop the run. The Browns are giving up 5.3 yards per carry, which is the third-most in the league. The Patriots likely will give running back Rhamondre Stevenson plenty of carries against this Browns defense, especially after he ran for a career-high 161 yards against the Lions last week. The Patriots also should be plenty familiar with Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett's strengths and weaknesses. New England drafted Brissett in 2016 and he played in three games for them that season.
New England isn't a lock to win Sunday by any means. But with a strong run game and a veteran defense, the Patriots should at least be favorites in this game.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast was joined by Browns Legend D'Qwell Jackson to talk about the impact of newly acquired Deion Jones. D'Qwell also previews NFL Week 6 matchup between the Cleveland Browns vs. New England Patriots.
The Browns had a changing of the guard of sorts at middle linebacker on Wednesday, with newcomer Deion Jones practicing with the team for the first time, and Anthony Walker Jr. returning to the building and watching for awhile from the sidelines on crutches and in a full left-leg brace.
The Browns have sorely missed Walker, who suffered a season-ending torn quad tendon against the Steelers in Week 3 and recently underwent surgery. They’re hoping that Jones, the 2017 Pro Bowler acquired in a trade with the Falcons immediately after the Browns surrendered 238 yards rushing in their 30-28 loss to the Chargers, will ease the loss, both from an on- and off-the-field standpoint.
Jones is even up for wearing the green sticker and calling defensive plays on the field right away if called upon.
“I’ve done it, so yeah, I could do it,” he said. “It’s just a matter of applying yourself, studying, making sure you know everything.”
Coach Kevin Stefanski acknowledged there’s some carryover with what Jones did in Atlanta, but the Browns need to see how quickly he picks things up.
“Deion is a very smart football player, very intelligent,” he said. “Has been in a similar system so we’ll see how much he can catch up. We just really got to meeting with him (Tuesday) so it is crash course when you acquire a player midseason. We will see what he can handle.”
The change of scenery was welcome for Jones, who had his $8.55 million contract restructured in the offseason to lower his cap hit to about $1.3 million. The Browns owe him $760,000 in base salary with bonuses that max out at $1.6 million this year.
“Everyone likes a fresh start, real clean slate, no expectations, just come in and learn and play stress-free,” he said.
Despite the Browns’ loss in Atlanta, Jones has liked what he’s seen from this defense.
“It’s a tough team that plays hard,” he said. “Just one or two plays away from a win sometimes and that’s just this league, you know? One or two plays away, a total of six points (for the three losses).”
His first game back will be against the Patriots, whom he lost to as a rookie in the Super Bowl, 34-28. The Patriots are coming off a 29-0 rout of the Lions in which they rushed for 176 yards, 161 by Rhamondre Stevenson.
“We know the run game, just basically everything,” Jones said. “Just being locked in and moving forward. You can’t make a lot of mistakes with the Patriots.”

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe reacted to what they heard from Jones on Thursday's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Then they figure out what impact Jones can have on such a short turnaround and how he can help ease the loss of Anthony Walker Jr. Then they discuss David Njoku after Patriots coach Bill Belichick had nothing but good things to say about him. Is this the best stretch of his career? Why is he having success? How will Deshaun Watson's return impact him? Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

Host Jeff Lloyd is joined by Sports Illustrated's Pete Smith to discuss the Browns issues versus the run, the surprises of the offense and how this game against New England is bigger than most realize. Deion Jones and Tyeler Davison are here, can the help this miserable run defense get back on track against a team that will come in looking to run. The Cleveland offense has done some really good things thus far but if Jacpby Brissett can get others involved there is another step this offense can take. The 2021 season really went off the rails against the Patriots can the team focus on that and get a much needed win Sunday at home. #Browns #NickChubb #MylesGarrett LinkedIn LinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked On Browns Podcast are joined by John Kosko of Pro Football Focus. Kosko gives his Highest and Lowest grades for NFL Week 5 vs. The Chargers.
The Browns had trouble containing the Chargers’ ground game during Sunday’s 30-28 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. On 19 snaps, defensive end Isaac Rochell led the unit in overall defensive grading with an overall 85.4 rating, according to Pro Football Focus. Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney led the unit with 78.3 rush-defense grading on 52 snaps, while linebacker Jacob Phillips led the way with a 83.0 tackle-rating. Here’s how the rest of the defense graded:
(PFF grades every player on every play and uses a scale of 0-100, with higher grades indicating better play. PFF has explained its grades this way: 100-90 elite; 89-85 Pro Bowler; 84-70 starter; 69-60 backup; 59-0 replaceable. In other words, it’s similar to how we would match up percentages with traditional letter grades in school.)
NOTE: Snap counts in parentheses.
DEFENSIVE END Isaac Rochell: 85.4 (19) Myles Garrett: 80.9 (58) Jadeveon Clowney: 77.0 (52) Isaiah Thomas: 60.0 (1) Alex Wright: 38.5 (18)

Garrett Bush of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked On Browns Podcast discuss Who IS TO BLAME for the Browns loss against the Chargers? The also discuss the Browns trading a late round pick in 2022 & 2023 to the Atlanta Falcons for LB Deion Jones.
A late pick by Jacoby Brissett and 2 Cade York missed field goals result in Browns’ 30-28 to Chargers as they fall to 2-3. Cade York wasn’t able to come through with the miracle, game-saving field goal this time like he did in Carolina. York pushed a 54-yard field goal wide right with 11 seconds left to seal the Chargers’ 30-28 victory over the Browns on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium. Earlier, York pushed a 45-yarder wide right, also at the closed end of the stadium. He made a 58-yarder in Carolina to win the opener. Fans booed as the Browns left the field. It dropped the Browns to 2-3 and marked their second straight loss. The Chargers are 3-2.
Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett played a hard-fought, valiant game, but was picked off in the end zone with 2:44 remaining and the Browns trailing 30-28. On third and 7 from the 9, Brissett rolled right and fired for Amari Cooper in the back of the end zone. Instead, he was picked off by safety Alohi Gilman, who returned the ball to the Chargers 17. Justin Herbert completed a 19-yard pass to Mike Williams to the Chargers’ 37.
But the defense forced the Chargers to give the ball up on downs at their 45 when M.J. Emerson broke up a pass on fourth and 1 to Mike Williams. It was an enormous play for Emerson and a curious call by Chargers coach Brandon Staley to give the Browns field position and a shot to win with 1:14 to play and no timeouts left.
The game marked the return of Browns defensive end Myles Garrett after he missed last week’s 23-20 loss to the Falcons after his car accident. Garrett, needing one sack to break Clay Matthews’ official club record of 62, was shut out on sacks but pressured Chargers quarterback Justin Gilbert all afternoon. It also marked the return of Jadeveon Clowney, who missed the past two games with an ankle injury.
The Chargers came into the game last in the NFL in yards per carry at 2.7. But against the Browns, they ran 34 times for 238 yards and two touchdowns, an average of 7.0 per carry. The total included a 71-yarder in the first quarter by Austin Ekeler, who finished with 16 carries for 173 yards.

First up -- Jacoby Brissett's level of play and killer interception at the end of the game. Do the Browns continue to ask too much of him, or should more be expected of Brissett? Then, Cade York's two missed field goal and the fourth-down decision by Chargers coach Brandon Staley -- what's up with both those guys>? At the end, a long discussion of the defense and its inability to stop the run Sunday. Should the Browns be thinking about a change with defensive coordinator Joe Woods? Everyone said whether the Browns should shake things up or not, and then they did, trading for linebacker Deion Jones from Atlanta soon after the pod was finished recording.

The Browns moved on from Baker Mayfield this offseason, but it's left them in a pickle for 2022. They have to play 11 games without their new franchise quarterback, Deshaun Watson. Would they be better off, for this season only, with off-field issues out of the discussion, with the Jacoby Brissett-Deshaun Watson split or Baker Mayfield starting 17 games? That's one of the questions our Football Insider subscribers had for Mary Kay Cabot in the Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the podcast. They also had questions about the leash on Brissett, the importance of the first four games, players we're not talking enough about on offense and defense and more. Are you a die-hard Browns fan?

Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is about 15 minutes into an interview. He’s just off the practice field, spending extra time to work routes. It’s hot and there’s no shade. He spent the first five minutes of the interview catching his breath between answers. He’s answering a question about his favorite route and you can tell he’s heard the question plenty of times before. Then he stops. “Check this out, right?” he says. “All the routes are really the same if you think about it.” That excerpt is from a story on Amari Cooper that ran on cleveland.com on Tuesday.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff project the Cleveland Browns 2022 break out players and Could Jadeveon Clowney Lead The Cleveland Browns In Sacks in 2022? The also discuss other potential breakout players for the Browns in the 2022 NFL season. Jadeveon Clowney believes the Browns defense will be even better than a year ago, and it's hard to disagree with him. One reason why? Well, Clowney is still on the roster — the eighth-year defensive end veteran re-signed with the Browns in May, and his return gave the Browns a chance to run it back with eight of the 11 other starting defensive players from last season. The Browns ranked fifth in the league in total defense a year ago, and Clowney became a destructive force once the group clicked in the second half of the season. He registered 5.5 of his nine total sacks from the year in his last three games, and that number could be even higher if he didn't miss Weeks 14-15 due to being placed on the COVID-19 list.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff react Cleveland Browns claiming former Minnesota Vikings QB Kellen Mond. The Browns claimed former Vikings quarterback off of waivers. They speculate on whether Mond will have an impact in 2022. Cleveland's acquisition of Mond is notable, as it wasn't previously believed that the Browns would add a third quarterback to their active roster. Rather, many expected Cleveland to sign a quarterback to its practice squad for emergency purposes, just as the team had done with Nick Mullens in 2021.

At this point, whether Baker Mayfield said what it was reported he said probably doesn't matter. It's out there and the Browns aren't going to shy away from using. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock, Irie Harris and Dan Labbe delve deeper into this story as Mayfield denied saying what Cynthia Frelund originally reported he said. The problem is it's out there and Browns players probably won't be too forgiving. How much benefit of the doubt does Mayfield deserve given how often he's had to have backtracking press conferences? What impact will it have on the game regardless of whether it was said or not? Then they discuss Mary Kay's story on Michael Woods II and how it came together. Are you a die-hard Browns fan?

Baker Mayfield unintentionally made headlines on Tuesday when comments he made to NFL Network's Cynthia Frelund came out, via Frelund on a podcast, saying of the Browns he was going to "(expletive) them up." Kevin Stefanski played it cool. Myles Garrett played it a little less cool. Who do we believe when it comes to using the comments as motivation? Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock, Irie Harris and Dan Labbe discuss that before looking at the initial 53-man roster and what it tells us about the Browns this season. Then they talk Deshaun Watson's suspension starting, if the NFL should send players away from their teams while they're suspended and turning it forward to Jacoby Brissett for 11 games.

They lay out the sure things and then fill out the roster on each side of the ball. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

Host Jeff Lloyd is joined by Sports Illustrated's Pete Smith to preview the Browns preseason finale Saturday night versus the Chicago Bears. Jacoby Brissett will start but will he play enough and show enough to appease doubting fans that he is ready to be this teams starter for 11 games? Can someone claim the fifth DE spot ahead of Chase Winovich? Can the Defensive Tackles step up and prove the masses wrong about them? Can a player like D'anthony Bell steal a roster spot?

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff react to the news that Former Cleveland Browns center JC Tretter has retired from football after eight seasons in the NFL but will remain in his role as president of the NFL Players Association. Tretter, 31, announced his decision Thursday on Twitter, saying he is leaving the game "on my own terms" but also that he is "looking forward to doubling down on my work as NFLPA president." The Browns released Tretter in a salary-cap-clearing move in March, just after he was reelected to a second term as NFLPA president. Tretter said in an interview with Sports Illustrated that he believes his work with the union played a role in him not being re-signed after the Browns released him in March. "There are teams right now that I would say are desperate for a center based off how camp's going,'' Tretter told Sports Illustrated. "Still no calls.''

One of the bright spots in Browns training camp and preseason so far has been defensive end Alex Wright. He's had plenty of opportunity, too, with Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney not playing in the preseason. Wright appears to have the third edge rusher job locked down and he's soaking up as much knowledge as possible from Garrett and Clowney as the third round pick embarks on the start of his NFL career. Dan Labbe caught up with Wright in the locker room after the game. Here's the interview presented as a bonus pod. Want to get involved in Football Insider? Click here for more info and to sign up.

Then they talk about Kareem Hunt and comments Stump Mitchell made on Monday about how he could be the best back in the league if he learned to be a more patient runner.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of the Locked On Browns Podcast discuss the latest Cleveland Browns News, Rumors, and Analysis. Garrett and Jeff discuss the confidence the organization has in backup QB Jacoby Brissett. The Cleveland Browns Feel Jacoby Brissett Can Lead Them To Wins in 2022.
Brissett worked with the first-team offensive line after Deshaun Watson operated behind the unit Saturday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
As has been the case since camp started Wednesday, Watson was first in line behind the starting offensive front, but coaches reserved snaps for Brissett, who is expected to lead the team if/when Watson is suspended. Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski acknowledged the potential suspension of Watson and an ensuing change in practice snap counts depending on the terms of the disciplinary action. Jacoby Brissett hasn't shied away about the notion of being the Browns' Week 1 starting quarterback since he joined the team in March.

Garrett and Jeff discuss the comments made by Cleveland Browns Safety John Johnson III Shares Why He Believes The Locker Room Has Greatly Improved. John Johnson pointed to a better vibe this year with the Browns and feels the secondary can be one of the best in the league.
Following the 2021 season, John Johnson III didn’t hesitate to speak his mind after a disappointing 8-9 finish for the Browns.
The safety was one of the first players to bring up what became a familiar refrain in exit interview media availabilities: Something chemistry-wise -- especially between the offense and defense -- simply felt off.

Garrett Bush of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and Jeff Lloyd of The Locked on Browns Podcast discusses the knee injury of 2nd year receiver Anthony Schwartz. The young wide receiver walked off field at Browns training camp with a left knee injury. Browns second-year receiver Anthony Schwartz has been eager to put his star-crossed rookie year behind him and live up to his status as a 2021 third-round draft pick.
But he suffered a setback Thursday at practice when he pulled up during a route on air with a left knee injury. He was examined on the field by a trainer, and then they walked off the field together and into the fieldhouse, with Schwartz wearing a towel on his head. The Browns later announced that he’ll be further evaluated, which likely means an MRI or other imaging tests.
The good news was that he didn’t need to be carted off, and didn’t appear to be limping on his way inside. He walked slowly and deliberately, but didn’t appear to be in any distress.
The Browns were awaiting word on Schwartz’s injury after practice, and it doesn’t help matters that this year’s third-round receiver, David Bell, is currently on the active/Physically Unable to Perform list with a foot injury, possibly a slight stress fracture. Bell, who’s expected back in a couple of weeks, worked with a trainer off to the side during practice Thursday.
Coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday he didn’t think the Browns would need to sign another receiver with Bell out, but that could change if Schwartz misses time. In the meantime, it gives a young receiver like sixth-round pick Michael Woods II a chance to get more reps, and he’s making the most of them. Schwartz’s latest injury comes after pulling a hamstring in rookie minicamp last year, and missing most of training camp. It set him back for the season, and he struggled to catch up.
He was also involved in Baker Mayfield’s torn labrum in his left non-throwing shoulder, when he stopped on his route in Week 2 against the Texans and the ball was picked off by Justin Reid. Mayfield tore the labrum when he tried to make the tackle and Reid lowered his head and trucked right through him. A world-class sprinter, Schwartz finished the season with only 10 catches on 23 targets for 135 yards and one touchdown. But the Browns expect him to bounce back season.
“He’s not forgotten by me or us,” coach Kevin Stefanski said during draft weekend. “We’re counting on him to have a big year. We’re excited about his development. We’re excited about what Anthony brings to the table.”
Schwartz hoped to put his turbulent rookie season in the rearview mirror and prove his critics wrong in 2022.
“There were a lot of ups and down, a lot of craziness that happened,” he told cleveland.com. “But I’ll still look back on and appreciate every opportunity I had. The best thing is, it can only go up from there.” Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Hosts Jeff Lloyd and Garrett Bush discuss the Browns first day of training camp. Myles Garrett spoke big of the potential of the defense which echoes why trading for Deshaun Watson , the player was a no brainer.

Baker's time in Cleveland brought many highs to the forever down franchise and that is how his time here should be remembered.

Hosts Jeff Lloyd and Garrett Bush take you through the final installment of "What we learned from the Browns this off-season" focusing on the trade for quarterback Deshaun Watson. The Cleveland regime did an incredible job of roster building over two years and when the opportunity came to upgrade the quarterback position to elite, they had no choice but to pounce.

Hosts Jeff Lloyd and Garrett Bush continue with the series of the 10 things we learned about the Browns this off-season. Today we focus on them loading up at the running back position, was this done to go run heavy while Watson is out. Or is one of these backs not going to see the regular season in Cleveland? The draft selection of Cade York was an absolute must, this team can not lure a free agent to northeast Ohio so drafting the best one available should fix last years inconsistencies. It appears the league wanted Deshaun Watson to settle on a suspension amount because there are some factors that could come up during the hearings that could fsvor a shorter penalty for the Browns new signal caller. #Browns #DeshaunWatson #NickChubb #AmariCooper #MylesGarrett #JadeveonClowney #DenzelWard Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Mary Kay Cabot talks about the football side of things and Paul Hoynes talks about the baseball side of things with Doug Lesmerises as they look at the investigations into, and suspension decisions around, Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson and former Guardians pitcher Trevor Bauer, who is now on the Los Angeles Dodgers.

On this final installment of The Mayfield Matrix on the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast, Dan Labbe, Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock, Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises look at the most drastic possible move the Browns could make at quarterback for 2022 -- trading Baker Mayfield for a more established QB.The Jared Goff trade for Matthew Stafford by the Los Angeles Rams a year ago is the example, and Doug lists seven names of quarterbacks somewhat in the Stafford mold that could maybe come available this offseason. If that happens, should the Browns consider a move?At the end of the pod, each member of the crew gives this option a rating, and then the fifth and final option wraps up.Thanks for listening to the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.Want to get involved in Football Insider?

Option 4 in our Mayfield Matrix series is probably the least likely -- what if the Browns just went ahead and signed Baker Mayfield to a short extension? The model here is the three-year extension that Jacksonville a bit unexpectedly gave to Blake Bortles in February of 2018 as he was entering his fifth season. It showed faith in an inconsistent QB, though the Jags had just made the AFC Championship Game. It didn't work out long term. Bortles was benched in Year 5 and then let go.But compared to letting Mayfield ride out his fifth-year option in 2022, this would be a sign of faith.Doug Lesmerises, Mary Kay Cabot, Scott Patsko, Dan Labbe and Ashley Bastock talk out this idea on the latest Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
On the third option in the Mayfield Matrix, our exercise looking at everything the Browns could do with Baker Mayfield and the QB position in 2022, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock, Scott Patsko, Doug Lesmerises and Mary Kay Cabot are here to ponder the draft. What if the Browns draft a quarterback in the second or third round to develop behind Mayfield, and maybe serve as another option in 2022 if needed?The model for this is what the Philadelphia Eagles did with Carson Wentz going into his fifth season in 2020, when the Eagles drafted Jalen Hurts in the second round. Unlike Mayfield, Wentz was signed to an extension at that point, but Philly leaned into the quarterback position anyway. Wentz regressed, Hurts took the job by the end of the season, and the Eagles elevated Hurts into the starting role in 2021 and traded Wentz. The Browns have not drafted a quarterback since Mayfield, so it's time to invest in the position anyway. But what if they like a guy at pick No. 45?Thanks for listening to the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast from cleveland.com.Want to get involved in Football Insider?

It's Part 2 of the Mayfield Matrix as the Orange and Brown Talk crew looks at another way the Browns could handle their QB situation. What if the Browns brought in a veteran as a hedge, another QB who has started and could be a backup to Mayfield but also be ready to take over in 2022 if things don't go well? It would be a quarterback with more upside than Case Keenum, but not a QB who is so good he would demand to start in Cleveland.The example here is what the Tennessee Titans did with Marcus Mariota when they brought him back as the starter again in Year 5 in 2019 without an extension, like the Browns are doing with Mayfield, and then added Ryan Tannehill in a trade. The long-time starter in Miami, Tannehill backed up Mariota in camp, but the Titans turned to him to start in Game 7 and then went on a run to the playoffs and onto the AFC Championship Game.Should the Browns consider adding a Tannehill type player? And if so, what potentially available veterans could fit that mold?Doug Lesmerises, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock, Scott Patsko and Mary Kay Cabot break that all down.

A new podcast series starts today at the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast. Over the next several days, the crew will examine all the options the Browns could have with Baker Mayfield in 2022, not only when it comes to playing him, but what kind of other quarterbacks they may or may not surround him with.To start, Dan Labbe, Ashley Bastock, Mary Kay Cabot, Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises look at the Jameis Winston option, which it seems like the Browns are doing. That's keeping Mayfield as their QB in 2022 without having another real option on the roster. The crew discusses the pros, cons and history of that option; why it might fit the Browns; and then they rate how much they like this option. They'll do the same with four other options over the next several days.Thanks for listening to the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast from cleveland.com.
