Browns' highest-paid players in 2025 still headlined by Deshaun Watson
They then spent modestly in free agency, with their biggest addition being defensive tackle Maliek Collins. Their offseason was highlighted by the mega-deal of star pass rusher and 2023 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett, who inked a contract netting him $40 million per year.
Their highest-paid player, however, is an obvious one as the Browns continue to work through the grimy details of the remainder of quarterback Deshaun Watson's contract. This leaves their books in a bit of a pickle. Who are they paying money to, and who are their highest-paid players?
Here are the Browns' highest-paid players entering the 2025 season:

Quinshon Judkins is the last unsigned draft pick
With Bengals' first-round draft pick Shemar Stewart finally under contract, only one 2025 selection remains unsigned. Browns running back Quinshon Judkins, the fourth pick in round two, is not under contract. And it's not about whether he'll receive a fully-guaranteed contract. The player taken before him did, and the four taken after him did. This is about the possibility, if not the likelihood, that Judkins will land on paid leave as soon as he signs and shows up, due to a recent arrest for misdemeanor domestic battery. His better move will be to resolve the case, negotiate an unpaid suspension, and then sign his contract. This assumes the Browns still want him. They say they're doing their due diligence. Which, in theory, could prompt them to do something like relinquish their rights to him. It's unclear whether they would do that. He's accused of punching his girlfriend in the mouth/chin with a closed fist. And he's the third Browns player in the past year to face domestic violence issues, joining defensive tackle Mike Hall and linebacker Devin Bush. Someone will inevitably give Judkins a second chance; his talent guarantees that. The question is whether it will come with the Browns. And, if it does, how many games he'll miss before he's cleared to play.

Shedeur Sanders unfazed by lack of first-team reps at Browns camp
BEREA, Ohio — If Shedeur Sanders is frustrated about not receiving any snaps with the first team during the first week of the Cleveland Browns' training camp, he isn't showing it. Sanders said on Friday that it is out of his control and not his place to answer why he has worked mainly with the third and fourth teams during the first three days of practice.

After two speeding tickets, Shedeur Sanders says he has learned his lesson
Shedeur Sanders insists he no longer will live life in the fast lane. The Browns rookie quarterback said Friday he has learned his lesson about speeding after two traffic citations from police and a chewing out by the organization. "Yeah, I definitely learned not to drive fast at all," Sanders said, via Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal. "So I really don't even drive that much anymore. But I really don't drive fast at all. So I definitely follow the rules and I hope everybody learned from my situation, you know that not drive fast at all." Police in Brunswick, Ohio, cited Sanders on June 5 for driving 91 mph in a 65 mph zone. Twelve days later in Strongsville, Ohio, Sanders received a ticket for going 101 mph in a 60 mph zone. He settled the two tickets, paying $269 in fines and court fees for the first and $250 for the second. It also cost Sanders four points on his license. General Manager Andrew Berry said Thursday the team had addressed Sanders' lead foot with him, calling it "just not smart."
