BrownsTodd Monken Explains Missed Coaches Photo and Outlines Uneven QB Plan

His early approach signals a tighter evaluation of Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson and Dillon Gabriel this spring.

Overview

  • The new head coach, who missed Monday’s annual photo in Phoenix, said the coaches meeting ended early and the shoot went off before his noon slot for a haircut.
  • He said the agenda listed the photo for noon Pacific time, and Jaguars coach Liam Coen later told him the picture had been taken about 20 minutes earlier.
  • Monken said quarterback reps will not be split evenly in the offseason program that opens April 7, with the order based on last season’s tape and where 2025 ended.
  • He also plans to play starters in preseason, though he did not set a snap count.
  • The group image showed 30 of 32 coaches with Sean McVay also absent, a light episode that fed the Browns’ heavy PR scrutiny as Monken installs his offense.
