Browns reverse course, turn back to DeShone Kizer as QB1

The Kevin Hogan era is over. If you blinked, you might have missed it.

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson announced on Wednesday that rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer is back as the team’s starting quarterback as the Browns begin preparations for Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans.

Kizer was benched at halftime of the Week 5 game against the New York Jets and sat last Sunday as Hogan was given the starting nod against the Houston Texans.

Apparently that little timeout was enough for Kizer to fix what ailed him and for Jackson to be comfortable in turning the team back over to Kizer, Jackson told clevelandbrowns.
