BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns will start Bailey Zappe at quarterback for Saturday's regular-season finale against the Baltimore Ravens, a source confirmed to ESPN on Thursday.
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said after Thursday's practice that he would first inform the quarterbacks of his plans but that he expected to play both Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who has started the past two games.
Zappe, who was originally signed off the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad in the wake of Deshaun Watson's season-ending Achilles tear in October, will be the 40th quarterback to start for the Browns since the franchise returned to Cleveland in 1999, the most in the NFL.
