The Cleveland Browns don’t yet know who will start at quarterback in 2026, but whoever that player is, he’s going to need some more/better targets in the pass game, which is a significant focus of the team’s fast-approaching free agency period.

On Thursday, February 26, NFL reporter Tony Pauline linked the Browns to New York Giants wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson.

“I am also told that the Cleveland Browns, another franchise in need of receivers, is interested in Robinson,” Pauline wrote.

Robinson, a second-round pick out of Kentucky in 2022 (No. 43 overall), will be a free agent in March. Spotrac projects the 25-year-old wideout to carry a market value just north of $70.5 million over a new four-year contract, or roughly $17.6 million annually.

He is coming off of a career year in 2025, in which he tallied 92 receptions for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns. It was Robinson’s second consecutive campaign with more than 90 catches.

Jerry Jeudy Currently Browns’ Top Wide Receiver

If the Browns do have a No. 1 wideout on the roster already, it is Jerry Jeudy. But describing him as a WR1 is stretching the limits of the term about as far as they’ll go.

A former first-round pick of the Denver Broncos, who will play his seventh NFL season at age 27, is under contract in Cleveland through 2027 on a $52.5 million contract.

Jeudy put up a career year with the Browns in 2024, tallying 90 catches for 1,229 yards and four touchdowns. He also earned the first, and only, Pro Bowl nod of his professional tenure.

However, Jeudy plummeted back to earth last season by finishing the campaign with just 50 receptions, 602 yards and two TDs — all of which represent the second-lowest totals of his career in those statistical categories.

A starting receiver Jeudy remains, particularly on an offense that didn’t produce another wideout with more than 21 catches (Cedric Tillman) or 338 receiving yards (Isaiah Bond). But Cleveland could desperately use a more productive go-to target.

Tight End Harold Fannin Jr. Was Browns’ Top Pass-Catcher Last Season

The tight end position is sound, at least at the top of Cleveland’s depth chart, with Harold Fannin Jr. leading the team in receptions (72), receiving yards (731) and receiving TDs (6) as a third-round rookie in 2025.

Former Pro Bowler (2023) and fellow tight end David Njoku announced earlier this offseason his intention to depart the franchise via free agency after spending his entire nine-year career in Cleveland up to this point.

The Browns are also pretty well set at running back, with breakout star Quinshon Judkins in the lead role, assuming he can return to full health by the start of next year from a dislocated ankle and fractured fibula injury he suffered in Week 16.

Fellow rookie Dylan Sampson, a fourth-round pick in 2025, is a solid change-of-pace back who displayed a reasonable skill set as a receiver out of the backfield last season.

However, the team may have to rebuild its entire offensive line this offseason with five new starters, while the quarterback position also remains unsettled.

Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson are the probable frontrunners for the QB1 job now, but Cleveland is likely to either trade for a player like Anthony Richardson or ink a free agent such as Malik Willis in the coming weeks.
