The Cleveland Browns have already been eliminated from the 2024 season. Looking ahead to their next campaign, the AFC North club has now made its final decision regarding Jameis Winston‘s future.

It has not been a great 2024 NFL season for the Browns. Despite entering the year with high hopes, they have failed to remain competitive, primarily due to persistent struggles on offense.

Midseason, the AFC North team lost Deshaun Watson for the rest of the campaign. This prompted the Browns to name Jameis Winston as the starter, but his tenure under center hasn’t gone as planned.

This year was supposed to be a breakout season for Deshaun Watson. Unfortunately, his Achilles injury midseason cut his campaign short, leaving the Browns scrambling for answers.

Jameis Winston was then given the starting role, but the former 1st overall pick struggled to deliver. The team now sits at a dismal 3-11 record after 15 weeks, with their playoff hopes long gone.

In light of these struggles, the Browns have decided to bench Jameis Winston for the remainder of the season. Dorian Thompson-Robinson has been named the new starter, and the team hopes to close out the year on a more promising note.
