Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Jared Verse brings his proven production to the Browns, but his jersey number is already taken by Dillon Gabriel. Verse doesn’t plan to change his number, and Gabriel’s future is uncertain. The Browns can’t have two players with the same number, so something has to give. Will Verse negotiate with Gabriel, or will the quarterback be traded or cut?
It’s just a jersey number, but it’s a sign of the times.
