While the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-shedeur-sanders-breaks-silence-speeding-tickets">Browns quarterback room is highlighted by Shedeur Sanders</a>, among others, ESPN’s Matt Miller can see the team picking Cade Klubnik in 2026.</p><p>In Miller’s 2026 NFL Mock Draft, he had Cleveland obtaining the No. 1 overall pick, meaning he envisions them having a poor year in the upcoming season. He had Klubnik out of Clemson going in the spot, even saying that besides the team selecting Sanders and Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel, the franchise should look for a <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2026/story/_/id/45585366/2026-nfl-mock-draft-miller-early-first-round-predictions-quarterbacks-32-picks" rel="noopener">“long-term passer”</a> with the junior.</p><p>Miller even said that Klubnik reminds him of Baker Mayfield, who was taken by the Browns with the first overall pick back in the 2018 NFL Draft.</p><p>“Spending two picks on quarterbacks in 2025 — Dillon Gabriel (third round) and Shedeur Sanders (fifth round) — shouldn’t prevent the Browns from looking for a long-term passer here,” Miller wrote. “Klubnik enters the season as my No. 1 QB. In 2024, he threw for 3,639 yards, 36 touchdowns, and six interceptions, highlighted by a gutsy performance against Texas in the College Football Playoff (336 passing yards, three TDs, one INT). Klubnik reminds me of Baker Mayfield — whom Cleveland selected with the No. 1 pick in 2018 — in terms of arm strength, mobility, and playmaking awareness.”</p><h2><b>dnodwnodnwo</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Browns-quarterbacks-on-May-28-2025.jpg"><figcaption>© Jeff Lange / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>While the prediction of the team having the No. 1 overall pick doesn’t bode well for them, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-new-oc-tommy-rees-declaration-heated-qb-competition">the Browns quarterbacks look</a> to prove the doubters wrong, though it’s a four-man race between Sanders, Gabriel, and veterans Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett.

However, despite previous reports of Joe Flacco and Shedeur Sanders performing well in minicamp, TJ Houshmandzadeh believes the race has narrowed down to either Dillon Gabriel or Kenny Pickett.</p><p>The retired wideout heard from a source within the Browns organization that Gabriel and Pickett have <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pANFjC5_qLc&amp;t=230s" rel="noopener">separated themselves</a> from Flacco and Sanders, he revealed on the ‘Nightcap’ podcast.</p><p>“I was told from somebody that is in the building that ain’t a player, it’s really coming down to Kenny Pickett or Dillon Gabriel,” Houshmandzadeh said. “That’s what I was told.

So it seems impressive when you see the graphic, but is it really if it’s not against the starters or guys that are going to be on the team?”</p><p>Since retiring, Houshmandzadeh has turned to a life of podcasting, which gives him a platform but also requires his opinions to be taken with a grain of salt. Houshmandzadeh did not play for the Browns during his 11-year career. Instead, he spent most of it with their cross-town rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals.</p><p>However, Houshmandzadeh’s report complies with Browns receiver Diontae Johnson’s recent statement predicting that Pickett would start Week 1. So far, Johnson is the only player on the team to give any insight into the heavily covered positional battle.</p><h2><b>TJ Houshmandzadeh reacts to Browns WR Jerry Jeudy</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Bengals-WR-TJ-Houshmandzadeh.jpg"><figcaption>Frank Victores- Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Houshmandzadeh co-hosted the late-night podcast with retired tight end Darren Waller to respond to Browns receiver Jerry Jeudy’s recent comments.

However, while most of his success came with Jameis Winston, he also worked with DeShaun Watson, Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Bailey Zappe.</p><p>While Houshmandzadeh claims Pickett and Gabriel lead the way, other reports have Flacco out in front. Amid the chaos, Sanders still seems to be the fan favorite, given his popularity. But while many might see Sanders as a fifth-round draft steal with first-round talent, Cleveland still chose to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-passes-on-shedeur-sanders-again-draft-dillon-gabriel">draft Gabriel over him in the third round</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Aside from football, Kawada is an avid combat sports and basketball bettor.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Cleveland Browns</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>After an eventful first half of the offseason, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-rumors-shedeur-sanders-dillon-gabriel-not-close-rookie-minicamp">Cleveland Browns’ quarterback competition</a> will be one of the most-watched positional battles of the 2025 training camp period. With four names in the mix, at least one player is likely on the move. Based on the early indications, Kenny Pickett seems like the Browns’ top early trade candidate.</p><p>Pickett, 27, joined the team in March via trade. The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/eagles-news-philadelphia-ships-kenny-pickett-browns-backup-qb-trade">Browns acquired him from the Philadelphia Eagles</a> in exchange for Dorian Thompson-Robinson and a 2025 fifth-round pick. Philadelphia used the pick in another trade with the Kansas City Chiefs to move up one spot and take linebacker Jihaad Campbell in the first round.</p><p>By trading for Pickett, the Browns gave themselves three quarterbacks to work with. DeShaun Watson returned as the incumbent starter, albeit likely out for the entire 2025 season with an Achilles injury. Cleveland also signed 40-year-old Joe Flacco in free agency to compete for the starting job. The room got even more crowded in April when general manager Andrew Berry added Dillon Gabriel and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-news-cleveland-selects-shedeur-sanders-stunning-fall-2025-nfl-draft">Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft</a>.</p><p>With training camp on deck, the Browns have only gotten a brief look at all their quarterbacks during offseason minicamp. While they certainly want to keep a veteran around to guide their rookies, Flacco appears to have the early edge over Pickett. Despite his age, Flacco has a much longer track record of success and familiarity with the organization, having won the 2023 Comeback Player of the Year award with Cleveland.</p><p>As a former first-round pick, Pickett has multiple seasons of starting experience under his belt. He also joins the team with championship experience, having won a ring with the Eagles. However, he is clearly the Browns’ top trade candidate entering their 2025 offseason training camp.</p><h2><b>Kenny Pickett is Browns’ top trade candidate</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Cleveand-Browns-QB-Kenny-Pickett.jpg"><figcaption>Ken Blaze-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Unless Pickett has an unbelievable training camp, he will likely not be a part of the Browns’ final roster. Few teams keep three quarterbacks on their roster, let alone four. While Watson will spend the year on injured reserve, Cleveland still has to narrow down its list between Flacco, Pickett, Gabriel and Sanders.</p><p>As a fifth-round pick, Sanders would seem like the odd man out in any other situation. Yet, the Browns’ quarterback room is anything but ordinary. Sanders’ uniquely unfortunate draft fall suddenly makes him a first-round prospect with the conditions of a fifth-round pick. Instead of being the franchise quarterback many saw him as, Sanders now finds himself in a neck-and-neck battle with Gabriel. Both players have impressed in their own ways early on, likely keeping both on the team.</p><p>The Browns’ future lies with either Gabriel or Sanders, but they seem to want both players to begin their careers on the bench behind one of their veterans. That leaves one of Flacco or Pickett to start Week 1, and the other to receive the boot. On paper, the 27-year-old Pickett seems like the better choice, but Flacco appears to be Kevin Stefanski’s favorite through the spring. Pickett is still very much in the race, but Flacco <a href="https://x.com/CameronWolfe/status/1937666783546102177" rel="noopener">has the early lead</a>, according to Cameron Wolfe of the NFL Network.</p><p>“From what I understand, I’d handicap Joe Flacco as the favorite going into training camp, but Kenny Pickett’s going to have a chance to steal that job from him,” Wolfe said on the NFL Network. “I think it’s more likely that its’ either Kenny Pickett or Joe Flacco than it’s Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel… I asked Kevin Stefanski on draft day, ‘Are you comfortable with Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett as your starting quarterback?’ Without hesitation, he said yes.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Stacking up the Browns 4-man QB race Joe Flacco vs. Kenny Pickett vs. Shedeur Sanders vs. Dillon Gabriel headed into summer.</p><p>For <a href="https://twitter.com/nflnetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@nflnetwork</a> The Insiders: <a href="https://t.co/ATVDYfBjoQ">pic.twitter.com/ATVDYfBjoQ</a></p><p>— Cameron Wolfe (@CameronWolfe) <a href="https://twitter.com/CameronWolfe/status/1937666783546102177?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 25, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>As a renowned offensive guru, Stefanski values Flacco’s familiarity with his scheme and his previous success running it, Wolfe reported. While every new report on the situation provides a different prediction, the one factor most agree on is that Flacco seems to be atop the offseason depth chart.</p><h2><b>Potential Kenny Pickett trade destinations</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/leveland-Browns-quarterback-Kenny-Pickett-.jpg"><figcaption>Ken Blaze-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>If Pickett somehow wins the quarterback battle, many assume Flacco would retire upon his release. If that is the case, Pickett is the only asset the Browns can shop after they declared they would not trade either Gabriel or Sanders.</p><p>Four years into his career, Pickett is not the player the Pittsburgh Steelers thought he would become when they selected him in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft. However, he is still a high-end backup quarterback. He was not asked to do much in 2024, but led the Eagles to a dominant 41-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys in his lone start. There is significant value in having a young, former starter like Pickett on the bench, which many rival teams would be willing to trade for.</p><p>A team like the New Orleans Saints, who desperately need quarterback help following <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/saints-news-derek-carr-retires-amid-shoulder-injury">Derek Carr’s retirement</a>, might be interested in adding a cheap option like Pickett. The Saints claim they are satisfied with rookie Tyler Shough as their starter, but they have no proven signal-callers on the roster, with Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener as the remaining options. Pickett is nobody’s first choice, but he can serve as the bridge for a team like New Orleans to bide time while nurturing Shough.</p><p>The Green Bay Packers, who were shaky in 2024 without Jordan Love, could also be an option. The Packers’ NFC North rivals, the Detroit Lions, are also potential buyers in the market for a backup quarterback. The Lions’ current backup, Hendon Hooker, has spent more time on injured reserve than suited up behind Jared Goff.</p><p>Should Cleveland move Pickett, it would be his third trade in the last two years. Interestingly, Pickett is still on his rookie deal and only slated to make $2 million in 2025. Given his place on the Browns’ depth chart ahead of training camp, that money will likely come out of another team’s pocket in 2025.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Then Joe (Flacco) will come in. I think they are probably going to roll with him just to see like he’s coming off a season with Philly and having a Super Bowl. So, I think they are going to stick with him through the preseason. Then you know they can live with Joe and what he brings to the table.”</p><p>Johnson’s predictions feels like one of the more likely outcomes for Cleveland’s training camp battle.</p><p>Rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders are of course part of the competition too. But they face an uphill battle against established NFL quarterbacks, which is no easy feat for any rookie.</p><p>It will be exciting to see who gets the early snaps at Browns training camp, which kicks off in late July.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Then Joe (Flacco) will come in,” Johnson later said. “I think they are probably going to roll with him just to see like he’s coming off a season with Philly and having a Super Bowl. So, I think they are going to stick with him through the preseason. Then you know they can live with Joe and what he brings to the table.”</p><p>Even though Pickett just joined Cleveland from Philadelphia, Johnson feels that the former Steeler has the upper hand to kick off the preseason.</p><p>While head coach Kevin Stefanski has advised fans not to read too much into the OTA rotations, Johnson’s words carry weight given his past connection with Pickett. The two played together for two seasons in Pittsburgh, where Johnson racked up 137 catches for 1,599 yards and five touchdowns with Pickett throwing him the ball.</p><p>Despite his familiarity with Pickett, Johnson acknowledged that veteran Joe Flacco and the two promising rookies are still in the mix. Gabriel and Sanders bring a fresh vibe, but they’re expected to learn from the veterans for now. Johnson stressed that he’s not getting ahead of himself and is focused on improving day by day.</p><p>As training camp approaches, the Browns’ quarterback decision will continue to evolve—but for now, Johnson’s perspective gives us a sneak peek into how things might play out.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It’s not because of splashy signings or headline-grabbing trades. Rather, it’s because of the rarest thing in football: franchise-level self-awareness. Sure, some teams spiral endlessly around failed investments. However, Cleveland has chosen to confront one of the most expensive mistakes in NFL history head-on. That has brought clarity and direction, and now the Browns could be on the verge of something promising. With training camp just around the corner, one more smart addition could cement them as a serious AFC contender.</p><h2><b>Cleveland’s Quarterback Reset</b></h2><p>Arguably the best thing the Browns have done over the last couple of years was finally admitting that Deshaun Watson isn’t going <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-rumors-deshaun-watson-hit-harsh-reality-bad-tape-achilles-injury">to solve the franchise’s quarterback woes</a>.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/DeShaun-Watson-3.jpg"><figcaption>Scott Galvin-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Watson is technically still under contract for two more seasons. That said, by essentially moving on from him this offseason, the Browns signaled that they’re ready to stop wasting the prime years of superstar pass-rusher Myles Garrett. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-news-myles-garrett-trade-saga-ends-historic-extension-160-million">After requesting a trade</a> in February, he was ultimately convinced to stay with a record-setting extension.</p><p>To hedge their bets at the game’s most important position, Cleveland flooded the quarterback room. They brought back Joe Flacco, acquired Kenny Pickett, and drafted two intriguing rookies: Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders. None may be a slam-dunk future star. Still, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-news-deion-sanders-hurt-by-negative-shedeur-draft-perception">the Browns are stacking the deck</a> and giving themselves multiple ways to win.</p><p>Cleveland also made a savvy long-term move by trading the No. 2 overall pick to the Jaguars, who selected Travis Hunter. In return, the Browns picked up an extra 2026 first-rounder. It gives them flexibility that could come in handy if none of their current QBs pan out.</p><p>Beyond the quarterback position, Cleveland added key rookie contributors. Thes include defensive tackle Mason Graham, linebacker Carson Schwesinger, and running back Quinshon Judkins. These players could all carve out meaningful roles in 2025. However, the rest of the roster isn’t vastly improved from last year. There are surely lingering concerns that could derail progress.</p><p>Here we’ll try to look at the perfect Cleveland Browns move <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/depth/_/name/cle">to fill out their roster</a> before the 2025 training camp.</p><h2><b>The Perfect Move</b></h2><p>The Browns’ quarterback uncertainty won’t matter if they can’t protect whoever lines up under center. That’s where George Fant comes in.</p><p>Recall that Jack Conklin has missed 34 games since 2021. Dawand Jones has been unavailable for 13 games in his first two seasons. Meanwhile, Jedrick Wills continued to underwhelm in both performance and availability. Now, he remains unsigned as a free agent. With that much volatility at both tackle spots, the Browns need reliable, proven depth on the edges. Signing Fant would be a low-risk, high-upside solution.</p><p>Fant brings 75 career starts to the table and can play both left and right tackle. He started his NFL career as an undrafted free agent in Seattle in 2016 and has since carved out a respectable career. He has had stops in New York (Jets) and Houston and returned to Seattle last season. Though his 2024 campaign was limited to just two games with the Seahawks, his 2023 performance with the Texans (16 games played, 13 starts) proved he can still contribute as a swing tackle or even a temporary starter.</p><p>Fant’s familiarity with late signings should also appeal to the Browns. In 2023, he wasn’t picked up until late July, yet quickly found his footing with the Texans. That kind of readiness and adaptability is exactly what Cleveland needs in a veteran lineman. He doesn’t need to be a long-term answer, just a dependable stopgap who can step in without blowing up the game plan.</p><h2><b>Insurance for a Crucial Position</b></h2><p>In a division featuring pass-rushers like TJ Watt, Trey Hendrickson, and Odafe Oweh, quality tackle play is non-negotiable. If the Browns want to give Pickett, Gabriel, Sanders, or even Flacco a real shot to succeed, keeping them upright is the priority. Fant offers insurance. He might not be an All-Pro, but he’s consistent, experienced, and versatile. That is exactly what this roster lacks at the moment.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Joe-Flacco-Kenny-Pickett-and-Dillon-Gabriel.jpg"><figcaption>Jeff Lange / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Fant also represents stability in a unit that has seen too much disruption. The Browns don’t have to count on him for 17 games. However, in a scenario where a starter goes down, Fant can step in without the line falling apart. That’s more than you can say for most remaining free agents.</p><h2><b>Final Word</b></h2><p>The Browns have turned a corner—perhaps not fully, but enough to give fans and analysts legitimate reasons for optimism. They’ve owned up to past mistakes, reloaded with multiple quarterback options, secured key rookies, and kept their franchise pass-rusher happy. But to protect that progress, especially at the most fragile position on the team, they need to shore up the offensive line.</p><p>George Fant isn’t a splashy signing, but he’s the right one. He’s a veteran with starting experience, positional flexibility, and a track record of stepping in and doing his job with minimal fuss. For a Browns team trying to stabilize and surge forward, he’s the perfect final piece before camp.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, this year’s minicamp added a new twist: mystery. There’s uncertainty swirling around the quarterback room and the departure of a franchise icon in Nick Chubb. This team went through an offseason that raised more questions than answers. Not surprisingly, the Browns emerged from their three-day mandatory minicamp in Berea with a handful of talking points that could define their 2025 campaign.</p><p>Some developments confirmed what insiders suspected, while others caught even the most optimistic observers off guard. If minicamp is any indication, this Browns team may be a lot more unpredictable than it looked just a few weeks ago.</p><h2><b>A Conflicted Offseason That Dodged Collapse</b></h2><p>The Browns avoided catastrophe this spring when Myles Garrett’s <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-news-myles-garrett-trade-saga-ends-historic-extension-160-million">surprising trade request</a> didn’t materialize into a deal. Retaining their All-Pro pass rusher kept the defensive foundation intact. Beyond that, though, Cleveland’s offseason left much to be desired.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Kevin-Stefanski-reveals-key-trait-he-looks-for-in-QB-evaluation.jpg"></figure><p>Yes, the front office did <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/browns-news-mason-graham-sounds-off-playing-myles-garrett">secure promising defensive tackle</a> Mason Graham and an extra 2026 first-rounder by trading down with Jacksonville in the draft. That said, it came at the steep cost of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/jaguars-browns-trade-grades-nfl-draft-blockbuster-involving-travis-hunter">passing on do-it-all phenom</a> Travis Hunter. On the offensive side, the quarterback room remains unsettled. There is just no clear long-term solution under center. The offensive line, once a strength, remains a looming concern. With contract expirations across that unit, the Browns’ failure to reinforce the trenches may haunt them come October.</p><p>Yet amid all the turbulence, minicamp offered a few glimmers of clarity. And in Cleveland, clarity is a welcome change. Here we’ll try to look at the three hottest takeaways coming out of the Cleveland Browns’ 2025 minicamp.</p><h2><b>1. Joe Flacco is QB1 (At Least for Now)</b></h2><p>Yes, the Browns quarterback room is still a riddle. On the flip side, here’s what minicamp showed: Joe Flacco is currently in the driver’s seat.</p><p>After watching his younger counterparts rotate through reps with the first-, second-, and third-string units during the early sessions, Flacco took center stage on the final day. He led the first-team offense in 11-on-11 drills. Head coach Kevin Stefanski hasn’t publicly named a starter. However, the messaging through usage is unmistakable: Flacco is QB1.</p><p>This isn’t just a case of veteran favoritism. At 40, Flacco isn’t getting run-of-the-mill minicamp reps because he doesn’t need them. He knows the playbook. He has chemistry with guys like David Njoku and Jerome Ford. Flacco also brings a calm, commanding presence that <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/depth/_/name/cle/cleveland-browns">no other quarterback on the roster</a> can match. The Browns’ conservative handling of his snaps suggests they’re preserving him, not evaluating him.</p><p>Behind Flacco, Kenny Pickett remains the front office’s pet project. The team still believes in his upside. However, his performance in minicamp didn’t turn any heads. His accuracy waned during red-zone sessions, and he looked hesitant against pressure packages. Pickett may still be the Week 1 starter if the team prioritizes youth and upside. That said, make no mistake: right now, the job is Flacco’s to lose.</p><p>And what of rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders? Both had their moments, but neither made a serious push to enter the starting conversation. For now, the Browns’ quarterback battle is a two-man race, and the elder statesman is leading.</p><h2><b>2. The Next Great Browns RB?</b></h2><p>The shadow of Chubb looms large in Cleveland. It got even longer last week when the beloved running back signed a two-year deal with the Houston Texans. The end of an era? Without a doubt. Still, Browns fans looking for a new rushing savior might not have to wait long.</p><p>Enter Quinshon Judkins.</p><p>The rookie out of Ohio State looked like a star-in-the-making during minicamp. Judkins consistently impressed with his vision, lateral quickness, and burst. He showed a knack for finding daylight even in crowded backfields. On multiple occasions, he turned routine inside runs into explosive gains. He was bouncing outside or slicing through interior gaps with surprising power.</p><p>Sure, Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong Jr are still in the mix. However, Judkins made a statement that his ceiling is higher than either of theirs. His ability to generate chunk plays could make him an invaluable asset.</p><p>The Browns didn’t plan on replacing Chubb this quickly. Still, if Judkins continues this trajectory through training camp, they may have stumbled into something special.</p><h2><b>3. Defensive Line Looks Scary Good</b></h2><p>If there’s one area where the Browns look elite, it’s up front on defense. The defensive line was an absolute force throughout minicamp. It generated constant pressure, blowing up running plays, and forcing hurried throws.</p><p>Of course, it started with Myles Garrett. He looked as dominant as ever despite the offseason drama. He recorded what would’ve been multiple sacks in 11-on-11s and routinely overwhelmed both veteran and rookie linemen alike. The dominance didn’t stop with him, though.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Browns-Devin-Bush.jpg"><figcaption>Barry Reeger-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Mason Graham, the first-round pick, already looks like a plug-and-play interior presence. Maliek Collins added veteran savvy and strength. Young edge rushers like Alex Wright and Isaiah McGuire showed real flashes. McGuire was even stringing together consecutive pressures during a red-zone drill on Day 2.</p><p>This group has a chance to be the best Browns defensive line since the franchise’s rebirth. In a division loaded with quarterback talent, the ability to generate consistent, organic pressure could be Cleveland’s saving grace.</p><h2><b>A Team on the Brink</b></h2><p>The Browns didn’t fix everything this offseason. In fact, they might have opened new holes while patching old ones. However, after a few days of honest, revealing minicamp action, it’s clear that this team still has a pulse. If Flacco can steady the quarterback room, Judkins can ease the transition from Chubb, and the defensive line can wreak havoc every Sunday, the Browns could still be a factor in the AFC.</p><p>It’s not a comfortable place to be, but for Cleveland, uncomfortable might just mean dangerous.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

First it was headlines about <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-stories/nfl-news-shedeur-sanders-prank-call-during-2025-nfl-draft-under-investigation">prank phone calls made to Sanders</a> during the 2025 NFL Draft. Now he is back in the news <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-shedeur-sanders-101-mph-speeding-ticket-was-second-in-month">because of a pair of recent speeding tickets</a>.</p><p>Sanders finally <a href="https://x.com/gucceCU/status/1935845597451268436" rel="noopener">spoke about those speeding tickets</a> while at teammate David Njoku’s charity softball game on Thursday night.</p><p>“I made some wrong choices personally and I can own up to them,” Sanders said. “I made some, you know, not great choices [but] I learned, I learned.”</p><p>Some, including ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio, have <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/shedeur-sanders-i-made-some-wrong-choices-personally" rel="noopener">questioned how sincere</a> Sanders’ message really is.</p><p>“The words look good. The delivery didn’t match them,” Florio wrote on Friday. “Watch it and decide for yourself on whether the attitude matches the message.”</p><p>It is worth noting that Sanders was not in a formal interview setting when giving that quote. Regardless, his demeanor while giving that quote did not seem to match the severity of the situation.</p><h2><b>Recapping Shedeur Sanders’ recent speeding tickets</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Shedeur-Sanders-.jpg"><figcaption>Ken Blaze-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Sanders first made headlines after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-shedeur-sanders-caught-driving-100-mph-ohio-highway">receiving a citation for driving 101 MPH</a> on an Ohio highway on Wednesday. Just one day later, it was clear that it <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-shedeur-sanders-101-mph-speeding-ticket-was-second-in-month">wasn’t Sanders’ first speeding ticket</a> since joining the Browns.</p><p>A report from WKBN, which referenced a Medina Municipal Court record filed on June 6th, indicated that Sanders was stopped by Ohio State Patrol earlier in June.</p><p>The first incident took place on June 5th in Brunswick Hills, Ohio. Sanders was allegedly caught driving 91 MPH in a 65 MPH zone.</p><p>The records also show that Sanders missed his arraignment for that citation on Monday. As a result, Sanders now faces an additional $269 in fines and court costs.</p><p>Sanders’ second speeding ticket was handed out early the next morning.</p><p>Records indicate that Sanders can pay a $250 fine for his second speeding ticket, which is officially a fourth-degree misdemeanor, or contest the ticket altogether. If he contests, it will happen in the Strongsville Mayor’s Court on July 3rd.</p><p>Peter John-Baptiste, a spokesperson for the Browns, told Cleveland.com on Thursday that Sanders “<a href="https://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/06/shedeur-sanders-was-pulled-over-for-speeding-less-than-two-weeks-before-latest-citation.html" rel="noopener">is taking care of the tickets.</a>”</p><p>Shedeur Sanders was already going to be under the microscope during Browns training camp next month.

The incident occurred on June 5 in Brunswick Hills, Ohio, where Sanders was allegedly caught driving 91 mph in a 65 mph zone.</p><p>Records show that Sanders missed his arraignment for the citation on Monday, resulting in $269 in fines and court costs. Early Tuesday morning at 12:24 a.m., he was pulled over by a Strongsville, Ohio, police officer for driving 101 mph in a 60 mph zone in a black Dodge TRX truck. For the latest citation, Sanders can either pay a $250 fine for the fourth-degree misdemeanor or contest the ticket in Strongsville Mayor’s Court on July 3.</p><p>Per a quote obtained by the Cleveland Browns’s representative Peter John-Baptiste, Sanders is working on paying off the tickets.

The interaction appeared pleasurable, as Shedeur Sanders was cooperative.</p><p>In the video, the police officer starts the conversation sternly, addressing Sanders about his speed. While Sanders’ exact words are unclear in the footage, he seems to cooperate with the officer. Ultimately, Sanders is issued a citation. By the end of the exchange, the officer’s tone softens, jokingly asking Sanders how fast he thought he was driving, if not 101 mph.</p><p>Since being drafted in the fifth-round by the Clevleand Browns, Shedeur Sanders has been a consistent topic in NFL conversations. He looks to find his place on the Browns depth charts, even beating out former Oregon star Dillon Gabriel, as well as Super Bowl champion Joe Flacco and NFL veteran Kenny Pickett to win the QB1 job.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The alleged incident took place early Tuesday morning.</p><p>Reports claim that Shedeur Sanders <a href="https://fox8.com/news/first-on-fox-browns-rookie-qb-cited-for-speeding-over-100-mph/" rel="noopener">was going 101 mph</a>, which was 41 miles over the speed limit, according to Ed Gallek, Peggy Gallek, and Emily Smith of Fox 8 Cleveland. The Browns’ quarterback was issued a ticket and has the option to fight it in court or simply pay a fine.</p><p>“The Fox 8 I-Team has learned Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders was pulled over early Tuesday morning for allegedly driving over 100 mph. According to Strongsville police records, an officer stopped Sanders on 71 North around 12:24 a.m. on June 17. A report states Sanders was driving 101 mph, 41 miles over the posted speed limit.”</p><p>The Fox 8 news team claims they reached out to the Browns’ organization for any comments. However, the franchise did not share any comments. Speeding seems to be a key issue in Cleveland, though, as reports claim the Ohio State Highway Patrol has pulled over more than 83,000 individuals for speeding 20 miles over the speed limit in the past year.</p><p>“The Ohio State Highway Patrol says last year more than 83,000 people were given tickets for speeding 20 miles over the speed limit, and more than 3,700 received tickets for going over 100 miles per hour.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-rumors-why-shedeur-sanders-kevin-stefanski-bind-training-camp">Shedeur Sanders was a fifth-round rookie pick by the Browns</a> in the 2025 NFL Draft. He joins a crowded quarterback room consisting of Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dillon Gabriel. Initial speculation was that the 23-year-old quarterback would be selected in the first round. Instead, he fell to round five and is competing for a potential role in Cleveland.</p><p>Sanders enters the NFL after having a spectacular final season of college football playing for the Colorado Buffaloes. He ended the 2024-25 campaign leading the Big 12 Conference in passing yards (4,134) and passing touchdowns (37). His 74.0% completion percentage was the highest in the nation last season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
