Description

Cutdown Tuesday (Aug 26, 2025) locks in the Cleveland Browns’ initial 53. Based on current reporting, rule mechanics, and the preseason finale, the most credible outcome is four quarterbacks on the 53—Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders—while Deshaun Watson remains on PUP and Tyler Huntley is waived with practice-squad hopes. This video explains the emergency-QB rule that drives the math, the three-elevations limit on practice-squad players, what GM Andrew Berry has said about using developmental roster spots, and how Sanders’ rough finale fits into a longer runway rather than a verdict. Sources include ESPN’s roster projections and Berry comments, NFL.com’s finale recap, the Browns’ PUP transaction for Watson, and wire reports on the emergency-QB rule reverting to 2023 terms after the NFLPA’s 2024 veto.
