The Cleveland Browns quarterback battle has been one of the biggest talking points of the NFL offseason across the league. Cleveland brought in four new quarterbacks, replacing the entirety of their room sans Deshaun Watson, who is all but done in Cleveland, as well.
The Browns brought in Kenny Pickett via trade with the Philadelphia Eagles, sending quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson in the trade. The Browns then brought back Joe Flacco and drafted Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders.
While many would have thought Sanders could potentially be in the running for the starting job, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN suggests there are two leaders for the job, and Sanders isn’t one of them.
“Kenny Pickett took all of the reps with the first-team offense in 11-on-11 drills as the Browns’ four-way quarterback competition began on the first day of training camp,” Oyefusi writes. “Pickett was followed by third-round pick Dillon Gabriel, who led the second-team offense, and then Shedeur Sanders, who ran the third-team offense.”
It seems that the Browns have their two favorites when it comes to the potential Week 1 starter, and those two quarterbacks are Pickett and Gabriel.
