Day 6 of Cleveland Browns coaching camp befell Tuesday, August 4. I used to be in attendance, so here’s a combination of my private report of the expertise, and the standard aggregated media notes.
Cleveland Browns Coaching Camp Report – Day 6 (8/4/26)
1. Dwell from Berea: I made my annual journey to Berea, Ohio on Tuesday, the third observe date open to followers, to observe Cleveland Browns coaching camp in individual. My main cause for going to camp every year is to benefit from the fan environment at camp, versus listening to observe itself (as a result of for essentially the most half, I can nonetheless summarize the large performs from all the opposite members of the media).
My video recap of coaching camp (a few half hour lengthy) will be discovered right here.
2. Development of District 46 Taking Form: Within the picture comparability beneath, for those who roll over the slider, the picture with grass was from final yr (2025), and the picture with building is from right now (2026). Indicators on the fence say that it is going to be accomplished by Summer season 2027, so this time subsequent yr, I’d anticipate to have the ability to give a strolling tour of the completed space.
We’ve seen renderings of the world earlier than, however right here was one of many banners on the fence. The center of the image can be wanting down Pearl Avenue. The completed product is meant to have a neighborhood area for youth, highschool, and adults, a lodge, a sports activities medication facility by College Hospitals, residences, 30,000 sq. footage of retail, and a parking storage. Contemplating the mockup exhibits a number of floor heaps, which already appear accomplished largely, I’m undecided if a storage continues to be within the works.
I couldn’t go down Pearl Avenue, as a result of safety was imposing no pedestrians and had been solely waving members of the media via. That’s presumably for building functions — I’m certain subsequent yr, anybody will be capable of stroll down the world. Sadly, in addition they removed the tiny neighborhood park the place I’d park my bicycle all this years when going to camp.
3. Making My Approach Inside: After testing that preliminary building, I made the common journey down Third Avenue after which Beech Avenue, seeing homes promote parking areas for $20 and some homes having vendor stands of their yards.
Gates opened at 12:30 pm, with observe set to start out at 1:30 pm. I arrived nearer to 1:00 pm, so I knew I wasn’t going to be one of many first 500 followers to obtain the giveaway (a Browns hat). This yr, the Browns added an extended set of bleachers reverse the sector that has the tall grandstand bleachers, which suggests no matter which area the staff is practising on, there ought to be ample seating house for everybody in attendance.
The theme of the day was Superhero Day. Brownie the Elf had a Superman cape, and the canine mascot (which I don’t keep in mind seeing earlier than) appeared like Iron Man. I additionally noticed the Pet Pound, they usually had a mock area of what a portion of the brand new stadium will appear like in Brookpark.
Beneath is a common shot of observe from the Grandstand Bleachers. You may see the development happening within the background.
Within the gallery beneath, a zoomed in shot exhibits the College Hospitals constructing being constructed. In entrance of that, however inside the Browns fields, are the brand new bleachers alongside that facet with loads of seating.
4. Heavy on the Runs Early: When it’s coaching camp time, followers stay up for the passing performs and the way the quarterbacks are throwing. Within the early a part of staff drills, although, it appeared like 80% of the calls had been run performs. That didn’t cease the protection from being fired up with a handful of stops within the backfield:
It appeared like a protection had a deal with on issues, and Zac Jackson agreed with that:
5. Relaxation Day for Concepcion: Earlier than observe, head coach Todd Monken mentioned that WR KC Concepcion was effective and just a bit sore after he went down on the finish of observe yesterday. He did some particular person work right now, however was rested for staff drills.
6. Clean Crusing: It was good to see Okay Andre Szmyt nailing his area purpose makes an attempt.
7. At Final, A Move: After a bunch of runs early on, one of many first downfield passes I noticed accomplished was QB Shedeur Sanders hitting WR Gage Larvadain down the center. Sanders could have had an excessive amount of time to throw, however nonetheless:
8. How’d He Grasp On? How did WR Isaiah Bond dangle on to this ball after it was tipped by CB Myles Bryant?
9. Not the Sharpest Gabriel: Each QB could have a down day, so was this the one for QB Dillon Gabriel? He’s been praised to date, however I noticed one easy sideline throw airmailed over the receiver, and he was additionally picked off later in observe by S Christopher Edmonds in 7-on-7 drills.
10. Not a Banner Day: As you’ll be able to see from the ESPN tracker, moreover QB Shedeur Sanders right now, the quarterbacks didn’t get many throws in. Offensive execution within the little little bit of 11-on-11 drills was not at a premium both.
11. Camp Chatter: It’s been just a few years since I’ve executed a camp chatter part on the day I attended, just because I haven’t spent a lot time within the bleachers at observe. However, I did decide up some issues of what followers had been speaking about (every bullet level is usually a distinct fan):
“Is [Kareem] Hunt still out there [in free agency]? He’s a guy who gave 110%.”“[Hunt] hated Stefanski, he was horrible in the 4th quarter. He throws the ball instead of running the clock out. 4th and 2, we had P.J. Walker, instead of giving it to Hunt, Walker throws it to the helmet of the defender, and Hunt was screaming at Stefanski afterward.”“Stefanski never blamed anybody, he always said it was everybody’s [fault]. But it was those damn plays that lost the games, you idiot.”“What are they building over there?” one fan mentioned with respect to all the development.“What are those other helmets?” a fan requested, referring to the Guardian caps. Somebody replied, “Guardian helmets to prevent concussions.” They mentioned the caps felt the identical as a daily helmet.“KC! Let’s go baby!” a gaggle mentioned out loud for WR KC Concepcion.“I wonder where Tony Grossi is? Last year, he was walking back and forth.”
12. Brownies: When requested earlier than observe about OL KT Leveston, head coach Todd Monken mentioned he sees him as extra of a guard than a deal with. … OG Teven Jenkins continues to overlook practices. … The staff was in pads right now, shall be in shells on Wednesday, and again to pads on Thursday. … DT Sam Kamara left observe very early on. … DT Mason Graham didn’t observe with a minor harm, and LB Carson Schwesinger was out once more. … WR Aaron Anderson left early with the medical workers.
13. Up Subsequent: The Browns will observe on Wednesday at 1:30 PM ET. Will probably be open to the general public.
