DeShone Kizer’s jump to the top of the Browns QB depth chart puts the rookie from Notre Dame on a long list of futility that he’ll hope to end.
Kizer would be the 27th quarterback to start a game for Cleveland since 1999, the year the Browns relaunched as an expansion franchise.

TIM COUCH: The Browns took Couch out of Kentucky with the No. 1 overall pick in the 1999 draft. He led the Browns to a playoff berth in 2002 and started 59 games over a five-year span but threw more interceptions (67) than touchdown passes (64).
