Tony Grossi of ESPN.com said he is “hearing the Browns will give [the] next four games to quarterback Johnny Manziel.” Head coach Mike Pettine will officially announce his decision Monday, according to Grossi.
This comes on the heels of an embarrassing 37-3 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals during which starter Austin Davis did not lead the Cleveland Browns on a single touchdown drive and threw an interception Sunday. Josh McCown is out for the season after suffering a broken collarbone, so Manziel has an opportunity to seize the starting position.
