The Cleveland Browns began training camp on Wednesday, starting a journey that they are hoping will have a far better ending than their 3-14 2024 season.
Head coach Kevin Stefanski is a two-time Coach of the Year winner, but the struggles of 2024 put some doubt in the minds of some fans that he is the man to lead them far into the future. Considering the quarterbacks currently on the Browns’ roster, 2025 doesn’t appear to have a high ceiling.
With that in mind, Colin Cowherd of FS1 believes the Browns are interested in hiring Nick Saban and drafting Arch Manning.
“This is the worst kept secret in the South,” Cowherd said. “Haslam, Jimmy, owner of the Browns. [He’s a] huge SEC, Tennessee booster. Leans heavily on the Manning family. Very close to the Manning family. [Nick] Saban is incredibly close not only to Jimmy Haslam, but also to the Manning family as well. So, Saban, if he could land, I’m told, a top quarterback – like Harbaugh going to the Chargers for Herbert – he would take a phone call from the NFL.”
While there is still an entire year to play out before speculations of such a thing could even begin, a combination of Manning and Saban heading to Cleveland would make the Browns must-watch.
