In the ongoing competition for the starting quarterback position for the Cleveland Browns in the 2025 season, Kenny Pickett has reportedly established an early advantage. Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com noted during a recent appearance on The Rich Eisen Show that Pickett is currently 'in the lead' for the top position on the Browns' depth chart.

The competition includes notable players such as Joe Flacco, Shedeur Sanders, and Dillon Gabriel. As it stands, Sanders is situated as the fourth-team quarterback and did not participate in any 11-on-11 practices on Wednesday, as observed by Cabot.

As the season progresses, further updates and analyses are expected to provide clarity on the dynamics of this quarterback battle.
