- How much will the Browns’ starters play in the first preseason game? (Chris Pokorny) – “The Cleveland Browns are set to play their first preseason game this Saturday against the Chicago Bears. With there only being three games in the preseason, we’ve seen how NFL teams have varied reps for starters. Some teams are more concerned with protecting their health, but other teams have more competition for starting roles and the potential starters see a greater amount of reps.”
- Browns fans’ ‘Hope Index’ is low, not the lowest (Jared Mueller) – “The recent history of the Cleveland Browns has been full of sadness upon sadness upon embarrassment. Even despite the Browns two playoff appearances under former HC Kevin Stefanski, Cleveland once again embarks on a new coaching staff, hoping to find that elusive winning formula that can last into the next decade and into the new domed stadium.”
- Browns RB Quinshon Judkins ready to fill Todd Monken’s needs on offense (Barry Shuck) – “Defense and a great running game. These are Cleveland Browns hallmarks. All of those Marty Schottenheimer teams that played in three AFC Championship Games featured a really good defense with a run game that was difficult to stop. Paul Brown had both with guys like Jim Brown, Ernie Green, Marion Motley, and Bobby Mitchell.”
- Browns preseason game reps will mean a lot to some key players (Abby Mueller) – “With many decisions to be made over the coming weeks, the preseason matchups will help the Cleveland Browns gain clarity on what they want to do this upcoming season. Head Coach Todd Monken will be able to use these games to evaluate and gather information across the roster to inform decisions for the start of the year. When it comes to the roster, which players in particular stand to benefit most from these preseason snaps?”
- Browns 53-man roster projection before the 1st preseason game (Jared Mueller) – “What do we know about the Cleveland Browns after training camp? A lot of excitement about the young roster, some winners and losers, Quinshon Judkins is back healthy, and… well, that may be it. The Browns defense seems ready to steady the ship, but the switch from Myles Garrett to Jared Verse will be interesting to watch from an impact perspective.”
- Cleveland Browns roster by jersey number, last name (Chris Pokorny) – “The Cleveland Browns are about to play their first preseason game of the 2026 season. To help prepare you, we’re providing a list of the entire preseason roster, sorted in two ways: first by jersey number, and then by last name. When the roster is trimmed to 53 players during the regular season, it might be easier to identify who the starters and primary backups are without looking them up, but with 90 men in the preseason, you have players who are undrafted free agents or random signings from other teams fighting to make the roster.”
