Cleveland is set to be one of the most talked-about teams this summer, thanks to a wide-open quarterback competition. Fans can catch the action firsthand, with eight open practices from July 25 through August 4 at CrossCountry Mortgage Campus in Berea.
The battle under center is already one of the most closely watched storylines across the league, and this camp will be critical in shaping the Browns’ playoff chances for 2025. Below is the list of Browns training camp dates for this year.
The first Browns open practice kicks off July 25. It’s also the first real look at the quarterback competition on the field. Tickets are free but required for all fans ages 2 and up.

Training camp gives football fans and bettors a closer look at the Browns before the season begins, offering early insight that could shape smarter plays in the Ohio sports betting market.
All eyes will be on the quarterback competition in Cleveland, but one name drawing extra attention is rookie Shedeur Sanders, who enters camp with plenty of buzz. A veteran player to keep an eye on is receiver Diontae Johnson, as he looks to prove he can be a consistent playmaker. On the other side of the ball, first-round pick Mason Graham will be under the spotlight as he makes the jump from Michigan to the pros.
Sanders enters camp as the biggest wild card in the Browns’ quarterback competition. A late-round pick with big-name recognition, he has plenty to prove. Sanders’ development will be closely monitored, from how quickly he picks up the playbook to how he handles reps in practice. Coaches and fans alike will be watching his work ethic, how he interacts with teammates, and his decision-making. It’s unlikely he’ll start Week 1, but if he shows potential, Sanders could work his way into the conversation and earn playing time as the season goes on.
Johnson enters camp with something to prove. The veteran wideout has shown promising talent in the past, but 2024 was a low point. Johnson bounced between multiple teams and posted career lows across the board. Now, with a fresh start in Cleveland, he’ll need to show he can contribute at a high level and earn a roster spot.
With the depth chart still unsettled in Cleveland, Johnson’s performance in camp could make or break his NFL future. If he demonstrates focus and consistency, he has a real chance to carve out a role in the Browns’ offense. But if he struggles, his time in Cleveland could be cut short.
First-round pick Mason Graham was a force at Michigan, but the jump to the NFL brings new challenges. The rookie will be watched closely in camp to see how quickly he adapts, especially in areas like leverage, hand usage, and overall technique. This is the first real chance for fans to get a look at his potential impact on the Browns’ defensive line and whether he’s ready for early playing time. It’s also a chance for Graham to build chemistry with veterans like Myles Garrett and prove he belongs in the rotation.
The Browns will hold all eight open training camp practices at CrossCountry Mortgage Campus in Berea. Fans attending should be aware that parking is available off-site with shuttle service to the facility, and all attendees must follow the team’s posted guidelines for entry and conduct.
According to the team website, all 2025 Browns training camp tickets are officially sold out. For future reference, tickets were free and released on a first-come, first-serve basis through the Browns Mobile App, with a limit of four per fan, per practice. Mobile tickets were required and no printed tickets accepted.
The Browns kick off the preseason on the road against the Panthers on August 8, with a joint practice scheduled in the days leading up to the game. Cleveland then heads to Philadelphia for another joint session with the Eagles ahead of their second preseason matchup on August 16. Cleveland wraps up preseason at home against the Rams on August 23 before turning its attention to a big Week 1 showdown with the Bengals.
These preseason matchups will offer early insight into how the roster is shaping up and could influence how oddsmakers view the Browns' Super Bowl odds heading into 2025.
