The Cleveland Browns are gearing up for the 2025 training camp with a focus on the linebacker position following the injury to Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah. His absence casts a shadow over the group, which includes Jerome Baker, Devin Bush Jr., and rookie Carson Schwesinger, who the team hopes can step up defensively. Jordan Hicks is expected to provide stability and leadership, while Mohamoud Diabate and Nathaniel Watson are seen as promising young talents with potential to contribute significantly.

Schwesinger's breakout college season has garnered attention, setting high expectations for his performance. Meanwhile, Bush faces ongoing legal issues that could impact his availability. The coaching staff emphasizes the importance of positional versatility among the linebackers in their scheme to compensate for the loss of Owusu-Koramoah.
