Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins was the 36th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft from the Ohio State Buckeyes. He has not signed a rookie contract yet with the Browns and this could spell trouble for him moving forward.
On July 12, Judkins was arrested on battery and domestic violence charge. With Cleveland having another player get into trouble with the law, it remains to be seen what is going to happen with Judkins. Training camp will begin next week, and it will be interesting to see if he is going to have any future with the team or not.
Cleveland Browns Insider Reveals How Much Training Camp Quinshon Judkins Could Potentially Miss After Latest Arrest
Zac Jackson covers the Browns for The Athletic. He was on 92.3 the fan in Cleveland, Ohio on Monday morning and talked about the fallout of Judkins’s arrest and what it means for him entering training camp. Jackson said,
“This contract situation with this means he could be in limbo, end up missing valuable training camp time for multiple reasons.”
With Judkins being arrested, there is a chance that general manager Andrew Berry may wait or may decide to not give him a rookie contract at all. Well, with that 36th selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, it was one of the picks that Jacksonville traded away to Cleveland.
That looks really bad right now for the Browns. Losing Nick Chubb to the Houston Texans hurts this franchise even more now.

During the 2024 season with Ohio State, he rushed for 1,060 yards on 194 carries and 14 touchdowns, along with averaging 5.5 yards per carry.
Judkins also caught also caught 22 passes for 161 yards receiving and two touchdowns, along with averaging 7.3 yards per reception. The former Buckeyes running back has put himself in a really bad spot right now entering training camp. Cleveland fans are not thrilled with the way general manager Andrew Berry has been drafting as of late.
