NFL insider hints at Browns’ future plans in their quarterback room

Insider Albert Breer seems to indicate Watson’s time as the undisputed starter are over.

One NFL insider has hinted at how the Cleveland Browns will handle quarterback Deshaun Watson and their quarterback room heading into the offseason.

First, ESPN insider Adam Schefter confidently stated that firing head coach Kevin Stefanski is not even on the table for the Browns. Now in the pregame festivities before Thursday Night Football, sideline reporter Albert Breer provided more insight on how the Browns might approach their quarterback position in 2025.

“I’ve been told that rather than look to build him up with what’s around him the way they have the way they have the last couple of years, that’s one reason why Joe Flacco isn’t there anymore, they are going to look to put competition in the quarterback room either through the draft or free agency.”

It sure sounds like, despite the money owed to Watson over the next two seasons, that the Browns are looking to get better. That starts with the quarterback position. Sitting at 2-8 on the season, the Browns may have a chance to land a name like Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders.
