Chargers sign Jake Browning to a deal amid quarterback depth concerns, adding him to the roster or practice squad
The Vikings are continuing to look at veteran wide receivers. Today Juju Smith-Schuster was in Minnesota for a workout, according to Tom Pelissero. The 29-year-old Smith-Schuster signed with the Giants in June and was cut by them in August. The Vikings recently brought in another veteran wide receiver who was cut by the Giants, Odell Beckham Jr., and they’re continuing to look for veteran depth at the position. Smith-Schuster was originally a 2017 second-round pick of the Steelers. He has also played for the Patriots and had two stints with the Chiefs

Last Sunday, former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin channeled former Steelers receiver JuJu Smith Schuster, during Tomlin's first Sunday with NBC
Last Sunday, former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin channeled former Steelers receiver JuJu Smith Schuster, during Tomlin’s first Sunday with NBC. “ The Browns is the Browns ,” Tomlin said. They heard it in Cleveland. And it apparently had an impact on the Browns for their Week 2 game at Tampa Bay. “Browns are gonna Browns. Fuck that, OK? ” coach Todd Monken said after the game. “The guys took that to heart.” Monken’s quote was played during this Sunday’s Football Night in America . Tomlin laughed it off. “I’m glad that I can still motivate although I’m not coaching anymore,” Tomlin said. “It’s good to be heard. . . . You’re welcome. You’re welcome.” That’s the best thing about bulletin board material. It benefits the team on the wrong side of it. As to “the Browns is the Browns,” it’s the second time that line has helped Cleveland. After Smith-Schuster first uttered it, the Browns thumped the Steelers in the playoffs — and Smith-Schuster acknowledged that it “ probably ” motivated the Browns, “a lot.”

A healthy list of NFL teams disappointed in the first week of the 2026 season. The New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers lost to backup quarterbacks, the Denver Broncos couldn't make a tackle, and the Tennessee Titans couldn't do anything right. Then, there are the Cleveland Browns . The Browns fell to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Todd Monken's coaching debut, 34-10, and the game went the way many thought it would, with Cleveland a two-score underdog. The defense struggled to contain Jags quarterback Trevor Lawrence , who completed 18 of 23 passes for 245 yards and four touchdowns, while Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for 205 yards, one touchdown and one interception while taking five sacks. Cleveland recorded 272 yards of total offense and didn't score a point until the second half. With this loss, the Browns fell to 3-24-1 in Week 1s since 1999, and Watson faced the largest deficit (31 points) of his Browns career -- which consists of 20 starts. Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin didn't have much to say about the Browns' Week 1 performance during his debut on "Football Night in America" on NBC, but he did shout out one of his former players for a famous quote that continues to live on. "In the words of my friend JuJu Smith-Schuster , the Browns is the Browns," Tomlin said. Mike Tomlin: "In the words of my friend JuJu Smith-Schuster, the Browns is the Browns." 🏈💀🎙️ pic.twitter.com/5jRJYeRgG1 Back in 2021, Smith-Schuster was asked about the Steelers' rivalry with the Browns. He indicated that nothing really changes with Cleveland's organization no matter how many new coaches or players they bring in. "I think they're still the same Browns teams I play every year," Smith-Schuster said, via the Associated Press . "I think they're nameless gray faces. They have a couple good players on their team, but at the end of the day, I don't know. The Browns is the Browns." Tomlin is probably allowed to take shots at his old rival. After all, he went 28-9-1 in the regular season against Cleveland. There is some truth to JuJu's blunt assessment. The Browns registered just four winning seasons since 1999, and won one playoff game. Still, Monken isn't prepared to embrace the ghosts of Cleveland's past. He disagreed with Tomlin's assessment. "Everybody's afforded their opinions. That's what you do when you go from coaching to television," Monken said. "We have to own that. We have to own that. We didn't play very well. I don't see it that way, 'Browns being Browns.' I don't see it that way. Every week is different, every team is different. We just didn't play well. That's one week. That's not 'Browns being Browns,' that's Browns being poorly on one week... "The only way to change people's opinions is to play better. That's a fact." There are not many reasons to be optimistic about the Browns right now, but Monken is correct. Winning cures everything, and Cleveland's next chance to win is on the road this week against Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
During the pregame show for Sunday night’s matchup between the Cowboys and Giants, new NBC analyst Mike Tomlin quoted one of his former players when talking about Cleveland’s ugly 34-10 loss to Jacksonville. “In the words of my friend JuJu Smith-Schuster,” Tomlin said, “the Browns is the Browns.” Smith-Schuster made those words famous back in 2020, ironically before the Browns then pounded the Tomlin-led Steelers in the wild card round. But the saying has stuck in part because the Browns have had just one winning season since — and even that ended with an ugly postseason loss. Asked about Tomlin’s comments in his Monday video conference, first-year head coach Todd Monken seemed to take some exception to them. “Well, again, everybody’s afforded their opinions. That’s what you do when you go from coaching to television,” Monken said. “ We have to own that . We have to own that. We didn’t play very well. I don’t see it that way, Browns being Browns. I don’t see it that way. Every week is different, every team is different. We just didn’t play well. That’s one week. That’s not Browns being Browns, that’s Browns being poorly on one week. “So, again, everybody’s afforded their opinion. And the only way to change people’s opinion is to play better. That’s a fact. We don’t want to be considered an also-ran, then we have to play better. We have to coach better, and we have to play better.” At this point, Monken is right — the only way the Browns can change their perception is by winning. We’ll see if they can at least be competitive against the Buccaneers on Sunday, though that will be unlikely if Deshaun Watson does not play any better at quarterback
