Browns actively pursuing quarterback Russell Wilson

The Cleveland Browns are looking for a new starting quarterback and have shown interest in Russell Wilson. They are one of the few teams still searching for a player to fill that role. While the Browns have the option to draft a quarterback like Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders with the second overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, they are also considering free agents. Wilson recently visited the Browns, indicating their serious interest in signing him. The New York Giants were also interested in Wilson, but they took a step back by signing quarterback Jameis Winston to a two-year contract. This could make the Browns more likely to land Wilson. However, signing Wilson might be financially challenging for the Browns. Analyst Tony Grossi reports that Wilson is asking for a contract worth between $20 to $30 million. This is considered high for a 36-year-old quarterback. The length of the contract Wilson desires is still unclear. A one-year deal could be more acceptable for the Browns, who might not want to commit long-term. During the last season, Wilson played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, completing 63.7% of his passes for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns, and five interceptions. Despite his age, he still shows he can perform well. The Browns now face a big decision: sign Wilson or draft a new quarterback. More news and rumors about Wilson and the Browns are expected in the coming days.
