Starting with the draft, Graziano believes the Browns are planning to remain at No. 2 instead of trading down to take one of the top two quarterbacks in the draft. Graziano believes "there's a strong chance [Deshaun] Watson has played his final game as a Brown" and Cleveland needs to look into where they are going next at the position.

Last year, Cousins passed for 3,508 yards, 18 touchdowns and 16 interceptions before Penix took over. The Falcons are currently $5.2 million over the cap and would add a $40 million dead cap hit by releasing Cousins after June 1. A trade isn't off the table, but the team would need the 36-year-old to sign off on any deal due to his contract.

Fontenot said Tuesday at the NFL combine in Indianapolis that Cousins is still the Falcons' backup amid talks of a potential trade or release when free agency opens March 12.

Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot indicated Tuesday that he would be comfortable keeping Cousins as the NFL’s most expensive backup in the second year of the four-year, $180 million free-agent contract that he signed last offseason.

Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot and coach Raheem Morris sidestepped questions about Cousins' health on Tuesday.

Kirk Cousins claims he was hurt. The Atlanta Falcons claim they had no idea. The real reason this all happened is Michael Penix Jr.

With NFL free agency looming, the questions surrounding the Cleveland Browns and their quarterback situation have been a situation worth monitoring. Whether it’s free agency or in the draft, the Browns will have a new signal caller in 2025.
