The Cleveland Browns have no idea what to do with the quarterback position in 2025, and going back to Deshaun Watson will be almost impossible.
First, Watson has been bad since he stepped into Cleveland two seasons ago. He is also dealing with a torn Achilles, which will most likely keep him out of most of next season.
Cleveland Browns Could Land Aaron Rodgers
The Browns could end up drafting a rookie and letting him take the keys to the franchise, but knowing the organization, they would like to get another veteran, and one future Hall of Famer could be coming to the Land.
Gilberto Manzana from Sports Illustrated came out with the most logical places for New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers to land next season and has the Cleveland Browns in the category of Teams with looming QB dilemmas yet are poor fits and had some words to say about the Browns.
Rodgers playing with coach Kevin Stefanski would be fascinating to watch. But we can’t assume every veteran QB would do well with Stefanski just because of Flacco’s epic five-game run with Cleveland last season. The Browns were lucky to get the scorching-hot version of Flacco to make the postseason, but they also learned in the wild-card loss to the Texans how ugly the lows get over the course of a season. And there’s the whole mess with Deshaun Watson. The team may have to play him again due to the guarantees and potential dead money in perhaps the worst contract in NFL history.
The Browns need to draft a rookie this year and let him take over. Hopefully, they can build a nice future with the player and maybe get back to the playoffs in two years.
