The Browns are preparing as if QB Johnny Manziel will be the Week 2 starter

Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel will be preparing to start Week 2. Josh McCown is in the league's concussion protocol and may not be ready to go next week. So the Browns are hoping for the best and preparing for the worst (which isn't really that much worse than the best). This week the Browns will be preparing like Manziel will be the Week 2 starter according to head coach Mike Pettine. "If we have our starting quarterback in protocol … it's an ideal situation that Josh would be back at the end of the week, but we have to plan otherwise that he won't be available at least early for practice.
