Despite a recent hamstring that sidelined him for three practices, Kenny Pickett remains determined to win the Browns‘ starting quarterback job. Pickett is in a position battle with 18-year veteran Joe Flacco. The Browns’ depth chart at quarterback also includes rookies Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel. Cleveland held Sanders out of team drills during Saturday’s practice due to arm soreness.
“Yeah, 100% it is,” Pickett said when asked about his determination to start. “I’m trying to get back out there, you know, as fast as possible. I’ve never had, you know, a soft tissue injury like this, so really a first-time experience in my career, I felt like I came in great shape, was hitting numbers speed wise that I’ve never hit before. So, it’s frustrating that it happened but you know, turn the page and just trying to be, you know, as good as I can be when I do return.”
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski recently said that he liked what he saw from Pickett during the first block of training camp practices that included extensive time with the Browns’ first-team offense. Stefanski specifically lauded Pickett’s mobility, an ability that could give him an edge over the 40-year-old Flacco.
“He’s a player that has had a good amount of NFL game exposure,” Stefanski said. “He’s had a lot of reps going back through the spring and what we’ve gotten accomplished so far through training camp. You don’t want anybody to be missing action due to any injury, but he has done a nice job of staying very much engaged.”
Pickett, 26, is hoping to get a second chance to be a starting NFL quarterback. A 2022 first-round pick, Pickett went 7-5 as the Steelers‘ starting quarterback during both the 2022 and ’23 seasons. He was traded from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia last offseason, however, after the Steelers decided to go in a different direction at quarterback. He won his lone start in Philadelphia last season while serving as Jalen Hurts‘ backup.
Pickett’s return from his hamstring injury comes at a good time for both himself and the team. The Browns have two more practices in Cleveland before they head to Charlotte for a joint practice with the Panthers. The Browns will then face the Panthers in their first preseason game on August 8.

Slot critical of Newcastle approach: That wasn’t a football match
Arne Slot criticised Newcastle's approach in Liverpool's dramatic 3-2 win at St James' Park, declaring "that wasn't a football match" when asked for his assessment of the game.Liverpool came away with a victory against 10-man Newcastle on Monday Night Football after the Magpies thought they had come from 2-0 down to secure a draw. Sixteen-year-old Rio Ngumoha's winner 10 minutes into injury-time capped off a raucous, chaotic game that had been dominated by the future of Alexander Isak beforehand.The Toon comeback was even more impressive given they played half of the game with 10 men after makeshift No 9 Anthony Gordon was sent off in first-half injury-time.It was a scrappy affair from the outset with 19 fouls before the break. Newcastle then resorted their attacking play to purely set-pieces with a man fewer - a tactic that caused Liverpool problems […]

Draper: Not my finest performance but arm feels good after injury
Jack Draper admitted his US Open first-round win over Federico Gomez "wasn't my finest performance" but added he was thrilled with how his injured left arm held up.There was briefly some concern for Draper's hopes as he left the court after losing the third set in his four-set victory, the British No 1 and fifth seed at Flushing Meadows looking rusty and lacking in match fitness in his first competitive singles match since July 3.
