The story of the Cleveland Browns season has been all about quarterbacks. Starting back to the end of last year and the beginning of this offseason, the Browns have kept quarterbacks at the center of attention.
In a round about way, the story of Cleveland (ex)quarterbacks continues all the way into Week 17 of the regular season.
So far this year at the position:
- Baker Mayfield was told he was the team’s QB unless they found a clear upgrade
- The team pursued Deshaun Watson
- Mayfield demanded a trade
- Watson was acquired in a trade
- Jacoby Brissett was signed to be the backup/fill-in QB
- Josh Dobbs and Josh Rosen were signed to compete for the third-string job
- Mayfield was finally traded late in the offseason
- Watson was suspended for 11-games
- Kellen Mond was added and has stuck with the roster
Now, we get news that Dobbs, who signed with the Detroit Lions practice squad before joining the Tennessee Titans, will get the first start of his career tonight on Thursday Night Football:
The #Titans are expected to start QB Josh Dobbs tonight, per source.
