"It's an open competition. I mean, I don't know why it wouldn't be an open competition. I don't mean that saying it harshly, but I don't think there's enough on film over the last couple years, one way or the other, to say, 'Boy, we have our starter at quarterback yet.' Whether internally or externally."
"Unlike last offseason, when the Browns entered NFL free agency with a bare quarterback room -- Deshaun Watson, who was rehabbing from an Achilles tear, and Dorian Thompson-Robinson were the only players under contract -- Cleveland has three players signed. Berry and Monken were complimentary last week of not only Watson but Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel, while acknowledging the uncertainty of the position."
The Cleveland Browns enter the 2025 offseason without an established starting quarterback for the second consecutive year. New coach Todd Monken announced an open competition at the position, stating insufficient film evidence exists to declare any current player as the definitive starter. Unlike last offseason when the quarterback room was depleted, Cleveland now has three signed players: Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, and Dillon Gabriel. General manager Andrew Berry indicated the team will explore external additions, though the free agent quarterback market offers limited options. Daniel Jones and Malik Willis represent the top available free agents, with Jones potentially remaining in Indianapolis and Willis emerging as a realistic target for Cleveland.
