Insider Makes Massive Statement About Browns’ QB Situation.
An NFL insider has made a massive statement about the Cleveland Browns’ quarterback situation.
While he’s capable of putting up big numbers, the team’s loss on Monday Night Football to the Denver Broncos was a prime example of why he hasn’t been given a long-term starting job before.
He ended up completing 34 of his 58 pass attempts for 497 yards and four touchdowns. Unfortunately, he threw three interceptions with two of those picks being returned for touchdowns.
Even though he shows flashes of having a superstar caliber arm, he makes a lot of mistakes with the football as well.
Andrew Berry and the front office will have to decide if the negatives of Winston overshadow the positives, or if they think that they can win with him leading the way.
All of that being said, it will be interesting to see what the Browns choose to do. Winston could very well end up being the starter in 2025, but there are factors that could force Cleveland to look elsewhere as well.
One simple fact though, is that Winston is a far better option than Watson if the choice comes down to those two players.
The Cleveland Browns will have a huge decision to make at the quarterback position during the upcoming NFL offseason.
With Deshaun Watson still locked in for two more years and being owed huge money, the Browns don’t have a lot of wiggle room. However, it’s clear that they cannot revert back to Watson being their starter.
When the Cleveland Browns made the big offseason trade to acquire wide receiver Jerry Jeudy from the Denver Broncos, they expected to help him turn his career around.
After a disappointing start to his NFL career, the former No. 15 overall pick has started breaking out with the Browns. He had the opportunity to go back and play his former team last night on Monday Night Football.
Unfortunately, Jeudy was unable to pick up a win against his former team. However, he put together the best game of his career and even made league history.
Jeudy ended up catching nine passes for 235 yards and a touchdown. Those numbers were good enough to break a longtime record held by former NFL superstar Terrell Owens.
As shared by CBS Sports, Jeudy’s receiving yards gained broke Owens’ 16-year-old record for most yards receiving against a player’s former team.
Throughout the course of the game, the Broncos’ fan base let Jeudy hear their unhappiness with him. They booed him aggressively, despite the fact that he never did anything wrong to the franchise.
All of that being said, the fit in Cleveland has been exactly what Jeudy’s career needed. He’s starting to play up to the No. 1 wide receiver billing that was expected from him when he came into the league.
So far this season with the Browns, Jeudy has played in all 12 games. He has racked up 54 receptions for 880 yards and three touchdowns. Those numbers average out to an impressive 16.3 yards per reception.
