The final pre-season game beckons, and OBR Publisher Barry McBride has thoughts. Maybe not good ones, but they are undeniably thoughts of some sort. This is the OBR Daily Newswire for 8/22/2025.

The Cleveland Browns announced Wednesday that they've traded defensive tackle Jowon Briggs and a 2026 seventh-round pick (originally from Buffalo) for a 2026 sixth-rounder.

The Browns will be without quarterbacks Shedeur Sanders and Kenny Pickett against the Philadelphia Eagles in this matchup. Third round rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel is expected to make his NFL debut, with Tyler Huntley handling all of the second half snaps for the Browns.

After what was generally considered a weak year at the position, the 2026 NFL draft is shaping up to be a quarterback bonanza.

As we wrap up the NFL preseason, several big names remain entrenched in trade rumors. Micah Parsons, Trey Hendrickson and Terry McLaurin are all active holdouts, while those who lost their position battles, such as Kirk Cousins and Kenny Pickett, become instant deal fodder.
