Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns were one of the NFL’s top teams during previous leagues. They also won four championships during the pre-Super Bowl era. The new franchise formed in 1999, and the team only had specific success over the past few years with very few playoff appearances. When Ohio sportsbooks open, the fans of this team will be able to bet on their players and the team to the AFC North, Super Bowl, or even American Football Conference title.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals of the NFL have won many AFC North division titles over a few years. They have also won three American Football Conference titles, the most recent in 2021.

Also, you can place the money line, spread, and total bets.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Since 1970, the Cleveland Cavaliers have been representing Ohio in the NBA. They reached the NBA Finals in 2007, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 out of which they won the championship in 2016.
