Browns' Dorian Thompson-Robinson: I Won't Be 'Wide-Eyed Anymore' for 2nd NFL Start

Dorian Thompson-Robinson's first NFL start was nothing short of a disaster.

The Cleveland Browns quarterback is confident his second will be much better.

Thompson-Robinson, who was named the Browns' starter for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in place of an injured Deshaun Watson, said he feels more prepared than his debut earlier this season.

"I know what to expect now," Thompson-Robinson told reporters Thursday. "I'm not stepping out there for the first time -- not going out there wide-eyed anymore."

The Browns named Thompson-Robinson as their starting quarterback when Watson was ruled out for the season with a shoulder injury earlier this week.
