With QB Jameis Winston benched for Dorian Thompson-Robinson, WR Jerry Jeudy’s massive production boost dropped off. He caught two of three targets for only 20 yards. With Thompson-Robinson opting for short passes to TE David Njoku and RB Jerome Ford, Jeudy had little to work with.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson will be the starting QB this week against the Bengals. QB Jameis Winston was benched against the Chiefs after throwing three interceptions, replaced by Thompson-Robinson. The Browns will get another look at the young QB this week.
Browns QB Jameis Winston was benched in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s matchup with Kansas City. Winston tossed three INTs before departing. Dorian Thompson-Robinson took over in his place.
The Browns plan to start QB Jameis Winston in Sunday's game against the Ravens, according to insider Jordan Schultz. "My understanding is Dorian Thompson-Robinson was [Deshaun] Watson’s backup on Sunday strictly from a gameplan standpoint," Schultz adds. That suggests that Cleveland is opting to go with Winston over Thompson-Robinson regardless of Thompson-Robinson's finger injury. That'd be good news for Cleveland's pass catchers going forward.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski said after Sunday's loss to the Bengals that QB Deshaun Watson is believed to have a torn Achilles. We should get confirmation on Monday. A torn Achilles would end Watson's season and threaten his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign. Cleveland also lost QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson to a finger injury against Cincinnati, leaving QB Jameis Winston at the controls. Consider Winston the favorite to start next weekend's game vs. the Ravens.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson was knocked out of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals with a fourth-quarter finger injury. With QB Deshaun Watson exiting earlier with an Achilles injury, QB Jameis Winston finished out the game for Cleveland. He gave the Browns the best QB play they've seen this season, completing 5 of 11 passes for 67 yards and a score. We'll see about the Watson and Thompson-Robinson injuries. But if the Browns are serious about winning, Winston will be under center going forward. He's worth adding in 2-QB and Superflex leagues.
Browns QB Deshaun Watson injured his right leg in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. It's Dorian Thompson-Robinson -- not Jameis Winston -- active as Cleveland's backup today. We'll update Watson's status when we know more.
Update: Watson has been ruled out with an Achilles. This has the look of a season-ending injury, but we'll update Watson's status when we know more.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson (concussion) is out for this weekend’s game vs. the Rams. The team confirmed on Friday that QB Joe Flacco will start that one. The 38-year-old isn’t a good option at this point of his career – but he should prove to be at least a slight upgrade over Thompson-Robinson and P.J. Walker.
Browns QB Joe Flacco has been getting first-team reps in practice and "could start" this weekend's game vs. the Rams, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson is in concussion protocol -- and hasn't been good in his three starts. QB P.J. Walker has been just as bad. Flacco just joined the Browns 10 days ago but is likely the team's best passer. He completed 58% of his passes at 5.5 yards per attempt with five TDs and three INTs in five appearances for the Jets last year. That included outings of 309 and 307 passing yards in the first two weeks of the season. Flacco is not a viable Week 13 fantasy play, but we'd consider him a slight upgrade for Cleveland's skill-position players.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson left to get checked for a concussion after taking a hit to the head in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Broncos. He's been replaced by QB P.J. Walker. We'll pass along an update on Thompson-Robinson when we know more.
Update: Thompson-Robinson has been ruled out with a concussion. That makes him unlikely to play in Week 13. We'll see if Cleveland starts QB P.J. Walker or QB Joe Flacco vs. the Rams.
Browns QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson will start this weekend's game vs. the Broncos, HC Kevin Stefanski said Monday. Cleveland just added Joe Flacco to the QB room, but DTR will get at least one more start. The rookie did very little to win last week's game vs. the Steelers, completing 56% of his passes at 3.8 yards per attempt with 0 TDs. But he turned it over just once and took only one sack. Thompson-Robinson is a bottom-barrel QB2 for Week 12 and will continue to be a drain on Cleveland's WRs. (TE David Njoku tallied a 7-56-0 line on a whopping 15 targets vs. Pittsburgh.)
