Link to story Browns | Isaiah Bond close to returning Mon Aug 31, 02:36 PM
Cleveland Browns CB Isaiah Bond (head) is believed to be out of the concussion protocol, but it is not known if he will practice Monday, Aug. 31, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: Bond left Saturday's preseason game against the Buffalo Bills with a head injury. The second-year receiver appeared to hit his head while making a catch in the first half of the game. He was taken into the medical tent and, a short time later, walked back with trainers to the locker room for further evaluation. He was listed as questionable to return to the game to be checked for a concussion. If we don't find out more this week, we'll certainly know more when Week 1 rolls around, and injuries must be reported. |

Browns | Dillon Gabriel lands on IR list to start Sun Aug 30, 04:54 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Dillon Gabriel (back) was placed on the reserve/injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, with a designation to return. He must miss the first four games of the regular season. As such, rookie QB Taylen Green opens the season as the No. 3 quarterback.
| Footballguys view: We wouldn't be surprised to see one or both Green and Gabriel to start at some point this season. The Browns solved the problem of how to keep four quarterbacks on the roster, but they will need to open up a roster spot for Gabriel during the season if they plan on using him. |
Browns | Taylen Green makes 53-man roster in Cleveland Sun Aug 30, 04:52 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Taylen Green made the initial 53-man roster Sunday, Aug. 30, and he will serve as the No. 3 quarterback behind starter QB Deshaun Watson and backup QB Shedeur Sanders, with QB Dillon Gabriel (back) on the reserve/injured list to start.
| Footballguys view: Green is a size/speed freak athlete in the mold of Terrelle Pryor. He is probably even more raw than Pryor was coming into the league, but the Browns may want to see what they have in him before they inevitably take a quarterback in the first round next year. Green should be on a roster in superflex dynasty leagues. |

| Footballguys view: Will Gabriel start a game for the Browns this year? Will he start more games than any other Browns quarterback? Will he even make the team? He should after this performance. Keep him on your superflex dynasty radar. |

Link to story Browns | Quinshon Judkins a limited participant Mon Aug 24, 02:37 PM
Cleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (undisclosed) is participating in practice Monday, Aug. 24, on a limited basis.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com noted, Judkins missed the final two practices of last week before sitting out Saturday's preseason loss to the Bills due to what coach Todd Monken described as "a little something nagging, nothing big. Even though he's mixing back into drills, it wouldn't be a surprise if the team goes easy on Judkins with Week 1 still nearly three weeks away. |
Browns | Isaiah Bond in protocol Mon Aug 24, 02:23 PM
Cleveland Browns WR Isaiah Bond (head) is not participating in practice Monday, Aug. 24, because he is going through the concussion protocol.
| Footballguys view: The Browns initially announced that Bond was being evaluated for a concussion after he exited during the second quarter of Saturday's game against the Bills. He was cleared to return in the third quarter but did not re-enter the game, with many of Cleveland's key players already finished for the day. Bond's absence Monday indicates that he developed symptoms after passing the in-game evaluation. He will now have to complete the league's concussion protocol before returning to practice. |

Browns | Deshaun Watson will open the season as the starter Mon Aug 24, 10:39 AM
Deshaun Watson will open the season as the Cleveland Browns' starting quarterback, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: Watson emerged as the starter in a competition with Shedeur Sanders that stretched into the first two preseason games. The Browns' first two regular-season games of the 2026 season are on the road -- at Jacksonville and then at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- before returning home to face the Carolina Panthers in Week 3. Watson has a 9-10 record as the Browns' starting quarterback, and his last two seasons as the starter have ended due to injury. Expecting him to hold the job all season seems like a reach, but he gets the first shot. |

Browns | Cleveland starting QB to be announced Monday? Mon Aug 24, 12:05 AM
Cleveland Browns QBs Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson are battling for the No. 1 job, and head coach Todd Monken indicated Sunday, Aug. 23, that a decision would likely be announced Monday, Aug. 24.
| Footballguys view: Watson and Sanders have been splitting first-team reps in practice since the offseason workout program and throughout training camp. But as ProFootballTalk.com suggests, Monken surely knows which quarterback he'll name as the team's starter. However it goes, it seems clear that Monken won't be making a 17-game decision right out of the gate. The man who wins the job as of Week 1 also wins the privilege of being the first guy benched. |
