Kenny Pickett is currently favored to secure the starting quarterback position for the Cleveland Browns, outpacing veterans like Joe Flacco amidst Deshaun Watson's recovery from an achilles injury. Acquired in a trade that gave up a future pick and quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, Pickett was previously a starter with the Pittsburgh Steelers. His favorable position in the competition comes as Flacco's veteran status, though impressive, seems to be dwindling against Pickett's potential. Meanwhile, rookies Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel are not anticipated to take significant snaps early in their careers. The upcoming OTAs and minicamp will shape the final decisions closer to the season's start.
Kenny Pickett, traded to the Browns, is currently the favorite to become the starting quarterback as Deshaun Watson recovers from an injury.
