Browns consider quarterback situation after loss to Jaguars

The Cleveland Browns faced criticism following a 34-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 13, 2026. Deshaun Watson's performance has come under scrutiny, with rival discussions about potentially benching him for Shedeur Sanders. However, some analysts suggest that swapping quarterbacks may not resolve the team's broader problems, including a struggling offensive line and ineffective running game. Coach Todd Monken defended Watson, saying the entire offense needs to improve, but also left open the possibility of evaluating the quarterback position ahead of the upcoming matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 20, 2026.
