NFL Insider Delivers Bad News to Kenny Pickett on Browns Future

The Cleveland Browns are still in the discovery phase when it comes to the four active quarterbacks on their preseason roster, but the time for serious decision-making is fast approaching.

NFL insider Peter Schrager of ESPN appeared on the Tuesday, June 17 edition of “The Pat McAfee Show” and predicted that the Browns will trade one of their two veteran signal-callers — either Kenny Pickett or Joe Flacco — before the summer is out. Based on his comments and on the franchise’s recent history, it’s likely to be Pickett who is hunting for new employment come August and/or September.

“I would be surprised personally if both of those veteran quarterbacks are still on the roster come Week 1, and you have the two rookies,” Schrager said.

Usually in a situation like this … you have the two veterans go at it. One of those guys is your veteran, and then you probably keep both rookies and you dress maybe one of them,” he continued. “You’ve got Flacco as your starter Week 1,Shedeur [Sanders] or [Dillon] Gabriel as your backup, then you got one who’s not active, not dressed, but is obviously still on the team.”
