The Cleveland Browns appear to have found one piece of their quarterback puzzle, as they are expected to sign Robert Griffin III on Thursday, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Griffin, 26, was released by the Washington Redskins on March 7, two days before his 2016 option, worth $16,155,000 would have become guaranteed.
He will come to Cleveland with a chance to revive his career for a coach who thinks highly of him.
Griffin visited Cleveland March 18 and 19, and coach Hue Jackson raved about what he heard. That was enough for the Browns to take a chance on a guy who did not play a down in 2015.
