Cleveland Browns: Freddie Kitchens, emergency quarterback

Entering the season, the Cleveland Browns had three quarterbacks on the roster. They were going into the year with Baker Mayfield, Drew Stanton, and Garrett Gilbert who became a fan favorite after lighting up the AAF with the Orlando Apollos.

Now in Week 4, they’re down to only two signal-callers as Stanton went to the injured reserve. That elevated Gilbert to second-string but so far, the Browns have decided not to keep a third quarterback.

That led to some reporters asking head coach Freddie Kitchens who would be the emergency option should both Mayfield and Gilbert succumb to an injury.
