Browns GM Berry Signals Rookie Judkins’ Training Camp Absence After Arrest

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry has expressed serious concerns about rookie running back Quinshon Judkins, who remains unsigned and unlikely to participate in training camp following his arrest on charges of battery and domestic violence. Berry emphasized that the team is still gathering information before making any decisions about Judkins' signing or presence at camp, highlighting the importance of organizational integrity over financial or roster considerations. The Browns have increased efforts in character assessment and education across the organization, reflecting the gravity of such off-field issues. This incident marks the second consecutive summer the Browns have faced domestic violence issues involving recent draft picks, recalling the 2024 arrest of defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. Berry acknowledged the stress and sleepless nights caused by vetting players and dealing with these serious allegations. Judkins and Cincinnati defensive end Shemar Stewart remain the only unsigned draft picks in the NFL as the Browns navigate this complex situation.
