The Cleveland Browns have a variety of quarterbacks to evaluate this summer as they enter the 2025 season without a clear starter. Veterans Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett kicked off the summer competing against rookie draft picks Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders for the starting job and will likely continue to do so throughout training camp next month. All the while Deshaun Watson will be lingering as the high-priced quarterback recovers from tearing his Achilles tendon twice during last season.
However, Watson is reportedly chipping in beyond his recovery duties. Per Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot, Watson has been a "cheerleader" in Cleveland's QB room so far this offseason and in particular has played a mentor role to the young Sanders, as well as Gabriel.
