Wrote a full breakdown of the 2026 #Browns schedule.

Six of the first nine games on the road. A three-week stretch in December where Monken faces Stefanski, Harbaugh, then the Ravens.

@FB_FilmAnalysis Idk, I think he was going through the motions in order to keep the money he'd already been paid by TT donors.

[Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero]

Star QB Brendan Sorsby is applying to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft, sources tell NFL Network.

After legal wrangling about his NCAA eligibility, Sorsby — regarded as a first-round talent — now could be the highest-drafted supplemental pick in decades.

[Daniel Oyefusi @DanielOyefusi]

Rookie Parker Brailsford is also working at center with the starting offense.

@RyanJ_Heath 4 out of the top 5 are group of 6 seasons...

NEWS: A judge in district court in Lubbock County, Texas, has granted the injunction requested by Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby. He’s set to be eligible for the 2026 season.

@danwiederer I understand the concern but as someone who has won a kick ball tournament during a gout flare up, we just keep working and grinding

[Jonathan Jones @jjones9]

Jared Verse ranks fifth among all pass rushers in QB pressures since he entered the league. He’s not even extension eligible until next year. He’s a helluva young (and cheap) player who can’t be overlooked in this deal.

Boom goes the dynamite 💥💥💥

🚨🚨🚨

Bombshell: The Browns are finalizing a trade that will send two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, per @rapsheet, @TomPelissero and me.

In exchange for Garrett, the Rams are expected to send Pro-Bowl edge Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick and other draft-pick compensation still being negotiated to the Browns.

The smoke around a Myles Garrett trade continues to billow. #Browns

[Scott Petrak ct @ScottPetrak]

Regarding Myles Garrett trade speculation, Browns coach Todd Monken said he’s never been guaranteed that Garrett would be part of the team when season starts. Said he’s like any player and the organization discusses the roster every day.

@Steelers_DB Yes, havent been able to watch 2023 film for weeks.

@GarmonMarqui Hang in there bud. I'm rooting for ya!

[Pat Mitchell @PatMitchellNFL]

@Kwen_C @GarmonMarqui Its not tho. His overall production is underwhelming for an age 25 3rd round pick. What are some good comps for players with similar production at the same age?

[Pat Mitchell @PatMitchellNFL]

@Kwen_C @GarmonMarqui Isn't that what I said?? You're trying to make Tillman look better by comparing his age 25 efficiency to the age 22 efficiency of an elite player. Not sound logic.

[Pat Mitchell @PatMitchellNFL]

@Kwen_C @GarmonMarqui It does tho. You're making the argument that Tillman's equivalent efficiency at age 25 to JSN at age 22 somehow means Tillman is better than we realize. It's not good logic. Comparing their age 23 efficiency makes a lot more sense, in which case theyre worlds apart.
