Browns Make No Moves at Trade Deadline

The Browns made no moves at the trade deadline, consistent with general manager Andrew Berry’s history of doing most of his dealing outside deadline day. Cleveland did not trade Shedeur Sanders, but its repeated decisions not to make him the starter have raised questions about the team’s confidence in him. The Browns’ scouting and two first-round picks point to a possible quarterback selection in the 2027 draft. The team also faces offseason needs at tight end and pass rusher, including adding depth and compensating for an unproductive pass rush. After the deadline, Cleveland brought tight end Zaire Mitchell-Paden and punter Wes Pahl back to its practice squad and released tight end John FitzPatrick and defensive tackle Eric Johnson II.
