The Browns' QB competition is still a question, not a May starter call
Cleveland's latest quarterback coverage keeps circling Watson, Shedeur Sanders and Taylen Green. The clean read is not who is ahead; it is that there still is no clean answer.
What happened
The Browns' quarterback argument is trying to become a May starter call before the team has supplied one. Cleveland.com's May 5 Orange and Brown Talk item framed Watson vs. Sanders as a competition with no room for sentiment and an emphasis on who gives Cleveland the best chance to win, while another Hey, Mary Kay! podcast asked directly whether the Browns would choose Watson as the starter. Terry Pluto's May 4 podcast kept Watson in the center by airing a listener's QB1 case and warning against too much hope. Dawgs By Nature pulled Taylen Green into the same orbit, calling the quarterback situation unsettled, and Cleveland.com noted the Browns still have questions before Week 1. The honest read: no winner has emerged; quarterback remains the offseason question.
What we do not know
