Cleveland Browns

Mason Graham

DT

Graham was wearing a walking boot during minicamp back in June, but he's apparently back to full strength with training camp now underway. He projects to play a huge role on the defensive line in 2026.

Shedeur Sanders

QB

Sanders and Watson have been alternating first-team reps in the early days of camp. Watson got the first-team spot for Friday's training camp practice, so Sanders is set to take his next turn Monday, when the team puts on pads for the first time. Cleveland's quarterback competition is unlikely to be decided until after Sanders and Watson play in the preseason.

Deshaun Watson

QB

Watson is getting the first-team reps Friday, which lines Sanders up to work with the starters Monday in what Oyefusi reports will be Cleveland's first practice in pads. Cleveland's quarterback competition is unlikely to be decided until much closer to the regular season.

Quinshon Judkins

RB

"I'm gonna push him to find out," Staley added of Judkins, who is participating in training camp after recovering from a dislocated right ankle and fractured fibula suffered in Week 16 of the 2025 season. Prior to the injury, Judkins enjoyed a productive rookie campaign, totaling 998 scrimmage yards and seven rushing touchdowns in 14 regular-season appearances. Judkins is expected to work as Cleveland's lead back, with fellow second-year pro Dylan Sampson serving in a change-of-pace role.

Mike Hall Jr.

DT

The defensive tackle suffered a right leg injury and had to be helped off the field by trainers during OTAs back in May. Hall appears to be good to go and in the thick of competition for a rotational role along the defensive line similar to the one he played during his first two seasons, recording 25 total tackles (12 solo), including 2.5 sacks, in that span.

Carson Schwesinger

LB

The 2025 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year was placed on injured reserve leading up to Week 18 of last season due to an ankle injury, but Schwesinger appears to be back to full health. The 2025 second-round pick compiled 156 tackles (67 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and three defensed passes, including two interceptions, across 16 regular-season games during his rookie 2025 campaign. Schwesinger is set to reprise his role as the Browns' starting middle linebacker in 2026.

Luke Wypler

C

Wypler is healthy again after having suffered a knee injury in Week 18 of the 2025 campaign. The 25-year-old has been getting reps as the team's second-string center throughout the start of training camp.

Elgton Jenkins

C

Jenkins has now fully recovered from a lower-leg injury he suffered last November. The 30-year-old spent the last seven seasons in Green Bay before signing with the Browns in March and is slated to serve as Cleveland's starting center during the upcoming campaign.

Dawand Jones

OT

Jones is healthy again after tearing his LCL last September. The 24-year-old could compete with Spencer Fano for the starting left tackle job throughout the remainder of the summer.

Jerry Jeudy

WR

Jeudy dealt with a hamstring issue during the spring, but he was out there as a full participant on the first day of training camp. The 27-year-old is coming off a disappointing 2025 campaign that saw him catch just 50 of 106 targets for 602 yards and two touchdowns across 17 regular-season games after he went for a 90-1,229-4 receiving line in the 2024 regular season. Facing stiffer competition for targets in the form of rookies KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston while also dealing with quarterback issues, Jeudy is a wild-card fantasy bet headed into this season.

Grant Delpit

S

Per the report, Delpit's new deal is worth $48 million, with $35 million guaranteed. Delpit, who was in the final year of a contract worth $12 million per year, is coming off a 2025 season in which he recorded 89 tackles (48 solo), including 3.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries over 17 regular-season games. As the coming season approaches, Delpit is slated to maintain his key role in Cleveland's secondary while working as a starting safety.

Harold Fannin Jr.

TE

Per Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com, Fannin said he missed the Browns' offseason workout program due to a procedure to address a groin injury he sustained in Week 17 of the 2025 campaign. However, the tight end noted Wednesday that he was cleared about two weeks ago and is thus ready to reclaim his role as the team's top option at his position, a context that should result in weekly fantasy utility for the 2025 third-rounder, regardless of who between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders wins the team's ongoing QB competition.

Denzel Ward

CB

Ward's new deal -- which includes $52.3 million guaranteed -- makes him the highest paid defensive back in NFL history for the second time in his career. The 29-year-old corner was limited during team drills in minicamp last month, but he's presumably past the issue ahead of training camp. Ward is set to reprise his starting role in 2026.

Maliek Collins

DT

Collins sustained a quadriceps injury in early December 2025 during a game against the 49ers. The starting defensive tackle has apparently not recovered from the issue and will require additional time to heal before taking the field once again.

Damarri Mathis

CB

Mathis missed the entire 2025 season due to an ACL tear suffered last September, but he's now presumably back to full health. The 2022 second-round pick will now work to carve out a reserve role in the Browns' secondary.

Dylan Sampson

RB

Easterling projects that all four backs will make the Browns' initial 53-man roster ahead of Week 1. While Judkins (230 carries in 14 regular season contests last season) is the clear-cut starter provided he can stay healthy, Sampson, who rushed 65 times for 175 yards and caught 33 passes (on 40 targets) for 271 yards and three receiving scores in 15 games as a rookie last year, could see enough pass-catching volume in 2026 to merit attention in deeper fantasy PPR formats.

Dillon Gabriel

QB

While the signal-caller competition between Watson and Sanders was a top storyline during Browns' offseason program, Gabriel -- who started six games a rookie -- and 2026 sixth-rounder Taylen Green are also still in the mix at the position. For now, it appears as though Gabriel and Green are slated for compete for the No. 3 QB job this summer, though injuries or even an unexpected transaction in the future could alter that narrative.

KC Concepcion

WR

It remains to be seen which QB will be throwing Concepcion the ball come Week 1, but whether that's Deshaun Watson or Shedeur Sanders, the 2026 first-rounder out of Texas A&M should have a chance to make an immediate impact this season alongside top returning WR Jerry Jeudy and rookie second-rounder Denzel Boston. Cedric Tillman, Isaiah Bond and Tylan Wallace also are in the mix, but Concepcion's projected role/upside make him an intriguing fantasy option regardless of the outcome of the team's looming signal-caller competition.

Denzel Boston

WR

Once training camp gets going next month, the pecking order in the team's revamped WR corps will start to become clearer. While Jerry Jeudy remains Cleveland's No. 1 option at the position, Boston -- who was the 39th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft -- has a chance to make an immediate mark as an outside receiver, while fellow rookie KC Concepcion (24th overall choice) figures to line up all over the formation. Also in the mix are Cedric Tillman, Isaiah Bond and Tylan Wallace, but a strong summer on Boston's part could help him earn enough playing time out of the gate to yield fantasy dividends in deeper formats.

Isaiah Bond

WR

According to Oyefusi, Bond led the team in targets during spring practices and "continued to display his speed" while also making "a bunch of contested catches." Cleveland used early draft picks on wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston back in April, and the team also still employs Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) and Cedric Tillman, so it's unclear how this wideout depth chart is going to shake out over the summer. Bond is putting himself in the mix after securing just 18 of 44 targets for 338 yards and no touchdowns across 16 regular-season games as a rookie last season.

Ronnie Hickman

S

The move keeps the safety in Cleveland for at least 2026. Hickman broke out last season, finishing with 103 tackles (51 solo) and seven pass breakups, including two interceptions. He should play a starting role again in the coming campaign.

Aaron Anderson

WR

Anderson spent his entire collegiate career at LSU, catching 106 passes for 1,341 yards and five touchdowns across three seasons. He will compete for a spot on Cleveland's Week 1 roster.

Elijah Chatman

DT

Chatman played 22 regular-season games for the Giants over the previous two seasons, recording 24 tackles, including 1.0 sacks. The 25-year-old will compete for a depth role on Cleveland's stout defensive line.

Kole Wilson

WR

Wilson ended his collegiate career at Baylor, where he totaled 44 receptions for 591 yards and five touchdowns over 12 games. The wide receiver also fielded 30 kickoff returns for 705 yards during the 2025 season. The Browns selected both KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in the 2026 NFL Draft, meaning any path to playing time for Wilson is likely to come through the special-teams unit as a returner.

Davon Booth

RB

Booth appeared in 12 games for Mississippi State in 2025, accumulating 553 yards and seven touchdowns on 136 carries. The running back also added 165 receiving yards on 15 receptions, finding the end zone twice through the air. The Browns' running back room is led by young talents Quinshon Judkins (ankle) and Dylan Sampson, likely making any chance for meaningful carries unlikely for Booth for the foreseeable future.
