Browns QB Future in Question | Cleveland Browns News

The Browns have locked in Deshaun Watson as starter, leaving Shedeur Sanders as backup — but former coach Jason Brown is pushing to cut Sanders and sign Joe Milton after Dallas waived him. While Milton’s stats look better on paper, his NFL track record is sparser: just five games, 424 yards, two TDs. Sanders, meanwhile, started seven games in 2025, throwing for 1,400 yards and seven TDs. Adding Milton would make Cleveland’s QB room four deep — a move many find unlikely. Still, league insiders see Sanders as a promising long-term successor to Watson, if he can reduce costly errors. Coach Todd Monken’s staff remains committed to developing Sanders within the system, making this one of the most intriguing quarterback storylines heading into the season.
