No, the Cleveland Browns are not in the market for a starting quarterback. However, that doesn't mean they can't be affected by the sudden appearance of a seasoned veteran on the open market — at least according to Ben Axelrod.
The WKYC reporter says that the Browns could end up benefiting from Rivers hitting free agency as he and the Los Angeles Chargers have mutually agreed to part ways. While he doesn't see them benefiting in free agency, he believes it could help Cleveland in the draft.
With the news that Los Angeles will now officially need a quarterback breaking, there could be one more elite non-quarterback prospect to slide to them at No.
