Here is the letter that Owusu-Koramoah penned to Browns fans following the announcement that he will miss the entire 2025 season:
"To the Cleveland Browns fanbase and my supporters worldwide—thank you for your patience in my silence.
From day one, you embraced me as more than a player, but also as a brother and young man with purpose. I'm grateful to the Browns organization for their full support, and to the world-class doctors guiding me through recovery. While I won't suit up this season, I'm focused on what I can control—my healing, my mindset, and my faith. The body may rest, but the calling never sleeps.
I've given my heart to this game. I don't know what's next, but I'll continue trusting my medical team, serving the community, and backing my brothers on the field.

Love always,
JOK"
This means we will get a healthy dose of rookie Carson Schwesinger, who appears to have a starting role already locked down after being selected with the first pick of the second round. We wish Jeremiah nothing but the best in his recovery and with whatever might come next beyond the 2025 season.

Browns name Joe Flacco Week 1 starter - but how long will he last?
Yahoo Sports host Andrew Siciliano, senior NFL writer Frank Schwab and senior NFL reporter Jori Epstein discuss Cleveland's choice for its starting quarterback to open the season. Hear the full conversation on 'Inside Coverage' - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript The Cleveland Browns today named Joe Flacco. He's a man, he's 40 as their starting quarterback, not just for a dress rehearsal. This coming Saturday, a 1 o'clock matinee at Huntington Bank Field against the Rams, in which Sean McVay will play nobody. He might even sign guys off the street to take Rams jerseys and to keep his guys healthy. So Joy, it is Joe Flacco, who took the Browns to the playoffs down the stretch in 2023, who doesn't just win by default. He wins because right now he's the best guy. Absolutely. And I think even before these injuries, this always seemed like the most likely outcome week one to me. I mean, Andrew, you and I saw each other at the Browns during mini camp before the summer break, before training camp. And to me, I left there thinking this is not a 4-way quarterback battle. This is 2 2-way quarterback battles. There is the veteran battle for week one and there is the rookie battle of, hey, who is most likely to be the one who gets a chance later in. The season if they decide to go from when now mode to, let's develop and plan for the future and determine if our guy's in-house mode. And I think that when I asked so many people around Cleveland, everyone from general manager Andrew Berry to head coach Kevin Stefanski, offensive coordinator Tommy Reese, what they were aligned on is the idea that their week one starter would be decided based on who is best able to operate the offense and make smart decisions. I think we, you know, we always talk about two things could be true as Joe Flacco is their best quarterback and also that is a sad statement for the Cleveland Browns because we saw Joe Flacco last year. The Colts tried to bench Anthony Richardson to say we need some time with Anthony. They watched two weeks of Flacco and they're like, Oh, we can't do this either. So anyway, that's your Browns starting quarterback in week one, Huzzah, and it just, it's, it's just, it, and also, yes, you're right, you can't put a guy out there when he's not ready. You can't put out the worst quarterback, but it also worked kind of both ways for Cleveland. We've talked all the time about their first 6 games, 1 and 5 wouldn't even be that bad of an outcome. 0 and 6 is on the table for them. It's an absolutely brutal start to the season. So you get through those six games, probably at some point in those six games or right after. Flacco gets benched, you go on to the next guy, and then you probably go on to the next. I'm full. I'll say this: I've said it. Four quarterbacks are going to start for the Cleveland Browns this year. I don't know when exactly Kenny Pickett's going to take over, and Dorian Thompson-Robinson's gonna take over, Shadoor's gonna take over, but I do believe all four quarterbacks will at least start one game this year, because I think you're going to want to get a look at both rookies, but I think can you pick a second line? I don't think Joe Flacco is making the season. It's just a mess in Cleveland. Look, their starting quarterback for 2026 is going to be playing on Saturdays this year, okay, like that. None of these guys are going to end up being the answer. Much less Joe Flacco. I think the biggest question is at what point do you say we need to see the kids, and then which of the young quarterbacks is the first one up? If you believe depth charts, and I don't put a lot of stock in them right now, it is still Gabriel three and Sanders four. That could change, right? They both played well, and by the way, it's not a binary decision. Browns fans, it is okay to say that both Shadoor Sanders and Dorian Gabriel played well. Like I I don't have to pick right now. They both played well. And if you're one of those fans out there that is screaming, this one's good and that one's awful, whichever one, you're probably not a Browns fan. You're probably a fan of one of those two quarterbacks from college, and you're just rooting. But I digress. Eventually, and Jimmy Haslam has said this, you're gonna have to see what you have. The question is when. Close

Do the Browns set themselves up with off-field controversies?
Yahoo Sports host Andrew Siciliano, senior NFL writer Frank Schwab and senior NFL reporter Jori Epstein discuss Cleveland's signing of Isaiah Bond and the wait to sign a contract with Quinshon Judkins following both players' recent court cases. Hear the full conversation on 'Inside Coverage' - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript It's not the only news about the Browns today. Isaiah Bond, we talked about this last Thursday, has now officially signed. The former Alabama and Texas wide receiver had a no-bill against him, meaning a sexual assault allegation. The charges, or rather the DA in Texas, the state's attorney decided not to follow through with charges this past week, and the Browns signed Isaiah Bond today for a 3-year guaranteed contract for north of $3 million which means he's making the team. Which means maybe Deontay Johnson, uh, his roster spot is in danger. So the Browns, you'd have to think, feel that they get a 2nd or 3rd round value for a guy that they were able to sign off the street. In essence, it's a free draft pick. It should be noted, however, Frank, that the number 36 overall pick, Quinon Judkins, the running back from Ohio State, who, much like Bond will not face charges, an allegation of domestic abuse in Florida that was between minicamp and the start of training camp, has still not yet signed. Friend of ESPN, Adam Schefter reports that he may not sign until the NFL wraps up its investigation. And if you're Quinon Judkins, Frank, you're probably going, you. Isaiah Bond, 3 million guaranteed. I would like my full guarantee. Yet he's already run afoul of the law, even with charges being dropped, he could be suspended. So that looks like an impasse. It just seems like why would this franchise of all franchises be the one always in that business, but I get it, a bond, you feel like you're getting a discount. With Judkins, I think it's just getting really, really complicated and messy. They're a wait for the NFL to rule and try to sign him to a contract. I hate. I say this before we've even played a game with either of these guys, but the Browns took Judkins over Trayvon Henderson, who looks absolutely unbelievable so far with the Patriots. I don't know. It's one thing to bring in a player. The Browns do have this pattern of just person after person, and I know speeding tickets and domestic violence and sexual assault are not in the same categories, but don't, doesn't it feel like we're getting to a point where the Browns have way more off-field headlines rather than on-field headlines? I understand why people want to read into it. It's a string, those, you know, I don't say unfortunate events, but they're kind of all unrelated. But yeah, I mean, obviously those headlines are what they are. Those headlines don't get forgotten until you play a game, and they're going to play a game coming up on the set on September 7th, and we'll see what happens. Close

Dolphins signing four-time Pro Bowler Matthew Judon to one-year deal
Matthew Judon will be a member of the Dolphins this season after he signed a one-year deal Monday. The deal is worth up to $6 million, according to NFL Network, and occurred after he visited the organization on Monday. The four-time Pro Bowler spent last season with the Falcons after he was traded by the Patriots for a third-round pick. Advertisement Matt Judon is signing with the Dolphins. Getty Images He went on to appear in 17 games, recording 41 tackles, 5.5 sacks and a career-high five passes defended. Judon, 33, also recorded his first career interception last season. He had spent five seasons with the Ravens, who selected him in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft and joined the Patriots organization in 2021 after he signed a four-year, $56 million deal. Advertisement He made his four Pro Bowl appearances from 2019-22. Judon is joining a Miami squad that has defensive stars like Bradley Chubb, Jaelan Phillips and Chop Robinson, who will look to make life miserable for the Jets in the AFC East. While the trio had dealt with injury issues in the past, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel told reporters that there shouldn't be anyone thinking Judon's visit has anything to do with injuries. Advertisement Matt Judon #9 of the New England Patriots sacks Tom Brady #12 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the second quarter in the game at Gillette Stadium on October 03, 2021 Getty Images He said, according to the Palm Beach Post, that he was 'visiting for the sake of seeing if there's a situation that both parties would be able to come into an agreement of, 'Hey, this is a situation that fits.'' The former Patriot will see his new team early in the season when the Dolphins host New England in Week 2, and he'll see the Falcons in Week 8 in Atlanta.
