Browns Rumors: Jameis Winston to Start vs. Ravens over DTR amid Deshaun Watson Injury

Jameis Winston will reportedly be under center for the Cleveland Browns when they take on the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported Tuesday that Cleveland plans on starting Winston even though Dorian Thompson-Robinson was Deshaun Watson's backup in the previous game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Thompson-Robinson played after Watson exited with a season-ending Achilles injury, although he also had to leave with a finger injury.

"My understanding is Dorian Thompson-Robinson was Watson's backup on Sunday strictly from a gameplan standpoint," Schultz noted.

Winston played the closing stretch against the Bengals after Thompson-Robinson's injury, and he went 5-of-11 for 67 yards, one touchdown and zero interceptions.
