The quarterback situation in Cleveland gets more interesting by the day. After Deshaun Watson let his intentions be known that he wants to play for the Browns, the team made a trade for him. Now veteran QB Jacoby Brissett will sign on as his backup.
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, “One day after trading for Deshaun Watson, the Browns now are expected to sign QB Jacoby Brissett to a one-year deal to be Watson’s backup…” Noting, “Cleveland adding two QBs in two days.”

Not too long ago, Baker Mayfield reportedly asked the Browns for a trade. But as it stands, he is also still on the roster. Though the writing is on the wall that he’s on borrowed time in Cleveland, Ohio.
Fans reacted to the Browns news on social media.
“Browns really preparing for a Watson suspension so it seems,” one user said.
