Several Browns make midseason All-Rookie team from CBS Sports
The Browns' young players have stepped up in a big way in 2026 so far.
Cleveland's Browns are currently enjoying a 5-3 record, but they remain in the initial phases of rebuilding their team. The young core players of the squad have not yet reached a stage where they can contend for a Super Bowl victory. CBS Sports' Josh Edwards recently announced his midseason all-rookie team, which included four players from the Browns. These rookies are wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston, left tackle Spencer Fano, and safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren.
Edwards singled out Boston’s impressive season start and his impressive catches, while he praised Concepcion for his solid performance in the last three games and the upward trajectory of his potential. Both of these rookies are expected to progress as they gain more NFL experience. Eds highlighted Fano, the team's top draft pick, by mentioning his innate understanding of the game. He's skilled at communication and exchanges, and he has the necessary foot quickness and ankle flexibility to handle various situations.
The offensive side of the Browns has seen some improvement due to the emergence of these young talents. Hitherto, it has been the defense that has been carrying the team. However, the growth of defensive rookies like McNeil-Warren, despite a shaky start, adds to the optimism for future performance. When the season began, analysts praised the Browns for having the best draft class in the NFL.
Thus far, this prediction seems to hold true. This report was originally published on Browns Wire: Several Browns make midseason All-Rookie team from CBS Sports.
