DENVER — I just got to my 10th training camp city and, sure, I’m starting to forget where I am. But I didn’t forget to get to your questions (even if this is coming a day later than usual) …
From bryg20 (@gnieskib): Do the Browns stay with Brissett for the six games or make a run at Garoppolo? Does the potential for an appeal by the league alter that thought process?
Bryg—I’ll start by saying I think, and I think the Browns think, that Jacoby Brissett’s a better player than he gets credit for. But he was brought in for a very specific reason, and that was to hold down the fort whenever Deshaun Watson would have to serve his suspension. So I think the Browns signed him thinking he could be the guy for a six-, eight- or 10-game stretch, and maybe the team would even benefit from that (with more players having to take on more prominent roles in the interim), with the idea Watson would be back.
