The Latest: Browns draft another quarterback, ND's Kizer

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Latest on the NFL draft (all times Eastern):

8:50 p.m.

The Cleveland Browns' quest for a franchise quarterback has brought them to Notre Dame's DeShone Kizer.

After passing on quarterbacks in the first round, Cleveland selected Kizer with the No. 52 overall pick. The 6-foot-4, 233-pound Kizer struggled last season for the Fighting Irish, but the Browns are intrigued with his size, arm and upside.

The Browns have started 26 quarterbacks since 1999, when they returned as an expansion team.

On Thursday, Sashi Brown, the team's head of football operations, said the team didn't want to "force" picking a quarterback and would wait for the right moment to grab one.
