Browns WR Diontae Johnson Makes Surprising Prediction on Who Will Win Browns QB Competition
- The starting quarterback position for the Cleveland Browns is up for grabs among Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders as they prepare for their 2025 training camp.
- This competition follows offseason moves including the Browns trading for Pickett, drafting Gabriel and Sanders, and signing Flacco in free agency after his 2023 season with the team and Philadelphia.
- Wide receiver Diontae Johnson, who spent the 2022 and 2023 seasons alongside Pickett in Pittsburgh, expects Pickett to begin as the starter, mentioning he has observed Kenny working with the first-string offense while Joe Flacco is also expected to contribute.
- Pickett, a 27-year-old first-round selection from 2022 with 15 touchdowns across 25 starts, has yet to fully live up to expectations, while Flacco earned recognition as the NFL’s top comeback player in 2023 after leading the Browns to a 4-1 record as a starter.
- Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski encourages patience, noting that the team’s starting quarterback will likely be determined as the offseason progresses through training camp and the preseason, reflecting the ongoing competition amid a rebuilding roster and uncertainty at the position.
