Former Pro Bowl running back states his case for who should be Browns starting QB

A former Pro Bowl running back is making his case for which quarterback should start for the Cleveland Browns, focusing on the competition between Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson. The article places context on last year’s Browns camp, when Sanders fell to the fifth round of the college draft after early projections of a top selection. It also notes that Cleveland had drafted Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel, hand-picked by then-head coach Kevin Stefanski, and that neither rookie was named to the NFL All-Rookie Team by season’s end despite receiving starts. Now in Year 2, with new head coach Todd Monken still not naming a starter, the piece says the competition includes rookie Taylen Green from Arkansas and Watson’s return after the trade from the Houston Texans. The article describes the trade cost in multiple first- and second-round picks and argues that outcomes now hinge on whether Watson can reclaim the job.
