When it comes to the Cleveland Browns, no player has a more disproportional impact on the team’s success than Deshaun Watson for more reasons than one. Initially drafted by the Houston Texans in the first round of the 2017 NFL draft, the Browns traded away a small fortune of picks to bring the collegiate Clemson […]

Dustin Hopkins’ three-year, $15.9 million contract extension with the Cleveland Browns is now official, and the kicker was fired up during his video for the team on social media, which included a message for the fans. “Cleveland hello, I’m so glad to be back,” Dustin Hopkins said in the Browns’ post on social media. “Thank […]

During Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson’s second 7-on-7 football invitational tournament, Glenville football coach Ted Ginn Sr. and his players gathered around him at Berea-Midpark High School’s Roehm Athletic Complex.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper didn’t attend the team’s offseason workouts because he’s seeking an extension or a re-do heading into the final year of his $20 million-a-year contract. While some fans might be concerned that his absence would hinder his connection with quarterback Deshaun Watson as they head into the 2024 season. Although […]

After an incredible 2023 campaign where they somehow found their way to the playoffs despite dealing with a bevy of injuries, the Cleveland Browns are hoping a clean bill of health can help them go on an even deeper run in 2024. They have done some good work this offseason, and they continued that with […]

The Cleveland Browns have been patiently waiting to re-inset running back Nick Chubb back into their offense. It’s clear Chubb is chomping at the bit to make his return too, just based on his offseason workout videos. While the star runner is making his return from a knee injury, he hasn’t seemed to lose much […]

With NFL training camp just weeks away, the Cleveland Browns, like the rest of the teams across the league, will be adjusting their rosters for the upcoming season.

The Cleveland Browns have lost a dear friend. The franchise is announcing the passing of the dog SJ that serves as the team’s mascot. It was six years old. “We are so grateful for his many years of loyal support and cherish all of the wonderful memories he helped create for fans young and old,” […]

For a team with an exceptional defense, the Cleveland Browns have surprising question marks at the heart of that unit: linebacker. So for a team with high aspirations, it makes sense to add a free-agent linebacker for the perfect move to fill out the roster before the 2024 training camp. And the player that easily […]

The terms underrated and underappreciated get thrown around much more liberally than they probably should, but in some cases, those are the exact tags that should be bestowed upon some of the best under the radar players in the NFL. One player who has a solid case to make as one of the league’s most underappreciated wide receivers is Cleveland Browns […]

Optimism abounds for the Cleveland Browns and their 2024 NFL season, and a pair of underrated sleepers could enhance those feelings.

In six […]

After handing over serious draft capital to the Houston Texans – and, by extension, the Arizona Cardinals – as part of the Deshaun Watson trade, the Cleveland Browns entered the 2024 NFL Draft without much hope of landing any of the premier players available, as they filled any of their remaining deeps in the draft […]

The Cleveland Browns are gearing up for the 2024 campaign after making a somewhat unexpected trip to the playoffs last year.

The Cleveland Browns may have had a Cinderella run with Joe Flacco at the helm at the end of last season, but it’s time to get back to reality. Deshaun Watson is the one getting paid to be the franchise quarterback, and this will be a make-or-break season for the veteran. Browns general manager Andrew […]

Long-time Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward made some waves late last week when he suggested that it was a possibility that he could leave the Steel City after nearly a decade and a half and potentially join the Steelers’ bitter AFC North rival, the Cleveland Browns. Heyward noted that both he and his wife […]

The Cleveland Browns are clearly a team that is on the rise. Head coach Kevin Stefanski saw his team contend with major injuries to quarterback Deshaun Watson and running back Nick Chubb, yet the Browns still finished with an 11-6 record and made the AFC playoffs as a Wild Card team. While the Browns got […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has been explosive at times, but hasn’t exactly been the ‘Steel Curtain’ of days gone by.

Heyward’s comments came amid an eye-opening […]

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is skilling mandatory minicamp while he is seeking a new contract as a result of the explosion of the wide receiver market over the last few years, and quarterback Deshaun Watson spoke on his receiver’s situation. “He’s the best in the game, and I believe that,” Deshaun Watson said, […]

The start of mandatory minicamp is raising more questions than answers for the Cleveland Browns. Uncertainty surrounds both the contract status of the absent Amari Cooper and the long-term health of Deshaun Watson. While the star wide receiver presumably seeks a sizable extension, the controversial quarterback is focused on meeting the high expectations the organization […]

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper was not present for the opening of the team’s minicamp Tuesday. The receiver is subject to fines for the absence, per NFL Network.

Cleveland won 11 games and made the playoffs for the first time since the Baker Mayfield era, though they were blown out in the Wild Card round.

It’s easy for athletes to find someone or something to blame for a devastating injury. Nick Chubb is not one of those athletes.

The Cleveland Browns announced contract extensions for head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry on Wednesday. The terms of the deals were not disclosed.

The Cleveland Browns are coming off of a pretty surprising 2023 campaign in which they won 11 games and made the playoffs in spite of having a revolving door at quarterback, which put even more pressure on the Browns to have a productive 2024 NFL offseason. Of course, Deshaun Watson was expected to be Cleveland’s […]

Cleveland Browns guard Joel Bitonio is getting ready for his 11th season in the NFL, and while he knows he is in the later stages of his career, he is not declaring the 2024 season his last as of yet. “I feel like I’ve definitely played more seasons than I have left,” Joel Bitonio said, […]

The primary concern looming over Kevin Stefanski and the Cleveland Browns this offseason is the health of quarterback Deshaun Watson.

The Cleveland Browns walked out of the 2024 NFL Draft with just six draft picks.

Nick Chubb’s net worth in 2024 is $22 million. Chubb is a running back for the Cleveland Browns who is currently rehabbing from a torn ACL. He’s already a four-time Pro Bowler despite being in the NFL for only five full years. Let’s take a look at Nick Chubb’s net worth in 2024. What is […]

The Cleveland Browns signed quarterback Jameis Winston in free agency to serve as insurance for Deshaun Watson, but based on how much Winston is raving about Watson, he may not get a chance to play at all in 2024.

When talking about the best rivalries in sports, usually it’s matchups like Yankees vs Red Sox, Ohio State vs Michigan or Duke vs North Carolina that are brought up, but the Cleveland Browns have a historic rivalry with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson declared that rivalry among the best in sports. “Cleveland-Pittsburgh, […]

With the release of all 32 NFL teams’ schedules, teams like the Cleveland Browns now know what lies ahead of them for the upcoming 2024 season.

While year four of the Kevin Stefanski era was far from stable for the Cleveland Browns, the team persevered and established a strong platform for success in the future.

Now that the 2024 NFL Draft is well over, it’s time for teams like the Cleveland Browns to start figuring out their eventual 53-man roster.
