The first wave of free agency is in the rearview mirror, and the Cleveland Browns didn't add another quarterback to their underwhelming group. There aren't many options available now, and the Browns may now either wait until the 2026 NFL Draft or stay put.
That said, Kyler Murray's arrival in the Twin Cities has sparked an interesting debate in Northeast Ohio: Should the Browns inquire about J.J. McCarthy and, if so, should he be a candidate to start next season?
The answer to those questions, like everything in football, is complicated. However, there's definitely a strong case to be made for and against both of them.
