The odds-on favorite to start the most games at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns in 2022 has to be Jacoby Brissett. Baker Mayfield is still likely to be traded while Deshaun Watson is likely to have a significant suspension.
We have begun to prepare for a Brissett-led season, or at least a majority of games, with a few pieces. First, with the Browns roster being so good, Brissett only has to be as good or better than an injured Mayfield was in 2021. Second, on the field, Cleveland choosing Brissett over Mayfield may be about taking the higher floor over the higher ceiling player.
We understand there are off-the-field issues that have been hinted about with Mayfield and Tuesday the Heisman Trophy winner made it pretty clear both sides have moved on.
So looking at all of the quarterbacks in the AFC, just where would Brissett rank?
