The Browns have been dealing with a quarterback curse since the turn of the century and even within the last decade, they've got a long list of failed QBs.

The Browns will lean heavily on running backs Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson. Harold Fannin Jr. is the likely second tight end. Mason Graham should be a Day 1 starter. Second-round pick Carson Schwesinger, however, might be the draft pick they need to hit the quickest.

Fans and analysts have assumed ever since the Cleveland Browns added rookies Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel to their quarterback room via the 2025 draft that the club could trade or cut veteran Joe Flacco or 2022 first-round selection Kenny Pickett so that the Browns can have both Sanders and Gabriel on their active roster in September.

Despite seeing limited reps this Spring, one NFL insider thinks that the Browns starting job is Joe Flacco's to lose.

Here we'll try to look at the two Cleveland Browns players who may be in danger of getting cut after their 2025 minicamp.

While former coach Eric Mangini criticizes the attention given to the Cleveland Browns, there is little reason to believe they can jump from worst to first in the division this season.

It seems in the closing days of spring that the Browns could carry four active quarterbacks on their Week 1 roster.
