Browns Face QB Uncertainty Amid Trade, Roster Concerns

The Cleveland Browns' training camp features a competitive quarterback battle among Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders, with head coach Kevin Stefanski aiming to name a starter soon. Pickett and Flacco remain frontrunners, while Gabriel and Sanders, both rookies, are considered less likely to start and may be trade candidates as the team is expected to reduce its quarterback group before Week 1. Sanders, despite his high profile and community involvement, has struggled for first-team reps and now faces skepticism about making the final roster, with owner Jimmy Haslam and GM Andrew Berry distancing themselves from his draft selection. This reflects internal uncertainty about Sanders' future with the team. Separately, the Browns are concerned about their receiving corps, which lacks proven options and is unlikely to be addressed before the season. The final quarterback decision and potential trades will be closely monitored as preseason games approach.
