The Cleveland Browns are taking a progressive route toward sorting out its quarterback situation (maybe the Bears will take note).
Not only is DeShone Kizer starting Saturday’s game against the Buccaneers, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Brock Osweiler isn’t scheduled to play at all. If you recall, the Browns made a daring trade to acquire Osweiler (and draft picks) from the Houston Texans in what is reminiscent of a good ol’ fashioned MLB-style salary dump.
To be sure, Cleveland hasn’t been a model franchise for building excellence on the gridiron for some time now, but this new regime is aggressively trying to write a new chapter in its history.
Good on them.
