Analyst has surprising choice for Browns' Week 1 QB starter originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Cleveland Browns ' quarterback situation has the potential to be the most-watched storyline of the offseason as Todd Monken looks to find his Week 1 starter.
Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson, and Dillon Gabriel are the candidates, although many think it is a two-horse race between Sanders and Watson. We've seen reports that Watson is the clubhouse leader for Monken after the three-day offseason program, but there's plenty of water to go under the bridge before a decision is made. And for CBS Sports' Garrett Podell, he thinks it will be Watson who is the Week 1 starter.
"There is no quarterback room more chaotic than that of the Cleveland Browns,” Podell wrote . “It's the final year of Watson's contract, and if he can still move around after two Achilles tears, he's the quarterback who has experienced the most NFL success with three Pro Bowl selections. ” MORE: Can Buccaneers survive changing of the guard at WR?
