Robert Griffin III

Browns will name quarterback by first preseason game

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson expects to name his starting quarterback before the first preseason game.

What It Means:

Despite reportedly being outplayed by Josh McCown throughout the offseason program, Robert Griffin III is fully expected to be the one who receives the nod from coach Hue. McCown could wind up being traded during camp, potentially to the New England Patriots as insurance for Jimmy Garoppolo during Tom Brady's four-game suspension.

Griffin is our 28th-rated fantasy quarterback heading into training camp. Our models currently project him for 3,814 passing yards, 21.20 touchdowns and 16.08 interceptions. We also peg him for 180.21 yards on the ground and 1.84 scores.
