The Browns are putting a lot of faith in their rookies. Each week, we'll grade one rookie's performance. This week, it's a look at KC Concepcion.
The Browns placed significant faith in their 2025 and 2026 rookie classes, with KC Concepcion being a second-round pick. On September 13, Concepcion made his debut for the Browns in their 34-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. During the game, he showcased his versatility by catching a pass for nine yards on a screen, evading two defenders to gain positive yardage.
