Barnes joins a crowded Browns QB room that already includes Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson, and Dillon Gabriel. While his roster chances are slim, the minicamp opportunity offers Barnes a chance to showcase his skills at the next level and potentially earn a longer look or a training-camp spot.
In related Browns quarterback news, the team added Taylen Green in the sixth round of the draft, a move aimed at adding depth and competition behind Sanders and Watson.
