2026 NFL Draft: Browns select Arkansas QB Taylen Green at No. 182 overall
While he has plenty of room for improvement in the passing game, Green is an incredibly dangerous threat as a runner. He rushed for 2,405 yards and 35 touchdowns over five collegiate seasons (three at Boise State, two at Arkansas), excelling both in designed runs and out of structure as an elusive scrambler.
This athleticism and his physical profile led some to wonder whether Green’s future in the NFL would gravitate more toward receiver than quarterback. He’s commonly compared to former Ohio State quarterback and eventual NFL receiver Terrelle Pryor, whose attempt to stick as a signal-caller ended before he accepted a position change.
Browns general manager Andrew Berry quickly refuted such assumptions, telling reporters Saturday they will keep Green at quarterback.
Green’s selection crowds an already packed room in Cleveland, notorious home to a five-QB derby during training camp last summer. With Deshaun Watson returning from injury and on the final year of his deal, plus 2025 fifth-round pick Shedeur Sanders and third-round pick Dillon Gabriel also on the roster, the Browns will once again have options.
For a second straight summer, plenty of eyes will be on Browns camp and their quarterback competition. It’s welcoming a new contender; we’ll see where he lands by the end of August and whether it could force out someone else.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KATV) — If your June plans could use a little “beach vibes,” Rock N’ Roll Sushi is leaning all the way into vacation mode, edible flowers and all.
Miss Arkansas and Miss Teen Arkansas teamed up with chefs at Rock N Roll Sushi to create two specialty sushi rolls that will be sold throughout the month of June at five central Arkansas locations. The rolls were designed by Kennedy Holland and Amelia Lisowe, who came into the kitchen about three weeks ago to work with the chefs, rolling sushi and testing ideas before landing on the final recipes.
When customers buy the featured rolls in June, the proceeds will benefit a scholarship fund connected to the Miss Arkansas and Miss Teen Arkansas program. The money supports the Alpha Fitness and Lifestyle Award scholarship, which will be presented to one winner in each category, Miss Teen and Miss Arkansas, and also helps fund other year-round efforts with the organization.
The Miss Arkansas Roll, created by Kennedy, includes avocado, crab and cream cheese on the inside, is deep fried, and is topped with crawfish tails, spicy mayo and eel sauce.
The Miss Teen Roll, created by Amelia, is geared toward a spicier palate, with spicy tuna, jalapenos and cream cheese inside, then topped with fresh tuna, sriracha and crunchies.
