Browns QB DeShone Kizer to start third preseason game, likely Week 1 starter

Rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer will get the start over Brock Osweiler in the Cleveland Browns' third preseason game, coach Hue Jackson said Wednesday.

Sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that Osweiler is not even expected to play in Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jackson said he informed the team Wednesday of his decision to start Kizer against the Bucs.

"[Kizer] has made a lot of progress by investing the time necessary to learn our offense, working hard to improve on his fundamentals while also effectively moving the offense in preseason games," Jackson said in a statement released by the team. "Development is so important for a young quarterback, this is the next step he needs to take and he deserves this opportunity.

"We are very excited about seeing DeShone in the role of starter for this week, as he is certainly positioning himself well to earn the starting job heading into the regular season."

Fantasy Impact: 

It appears that Kizer is going to win the starting job heading into Week 1 provided that he doesn't fall on his face in the third preseason game. He could work his way into the QB2/streaming conversation.

After weeks of speculation, analysis and evaluation, the Browns’ quarterback competition is headed into its home stretch.

Pro Bowl left tackle Joe Thomas believes it’s over — Brock Osweiler will start the season opener on Sept. 10 against Pittsburgh.

“I could be totally wrong,” Thomas said Wednesday. “I might be going out on a limb here, but I think they’re grooming Brock to be the starter in Week 1 based on what I’ve seen.”

Fantasy Impact: 

This is obviously just Thomas' opinion but he does see what's going on on a daily basis. The story said Osweiler is expected to start a second-straight preseason game Monday night. The story also says Thomas and head coach Hue Jackson are usually on the same page and Jackson will consult Thomas on major decisions.

Browns QB Brock Osweiler to start 1st preseason game

Browns head coach Hue Jackson announced via a statement Monday that Brock Osweiler would start the team's first preseason game over Cody Kessler and rookie DeShone Kizer:

"A lot goes into our evaluation but it’s always going to be about efficiently and effectively running the offense," Jackson said. "You want your starter to be able to do that despite any circumstance. Brock hasn’t really gotten any first team reps and this will give him that chance. We look forward to seeing what he can do with this opportunity throughout the week and against the Saints."

Fantasy Impact: 

It's notable that Jackson admits Osweiler hasn't gotten any first team reps in training camp. That should be all you need to hear that this is still clearly an open competition. The first preseason game is generally the easiest for a quarterback with defenses playing vanilla schemes and starters barely playing. If Osweiler plays poorly, you can probably eliminate him from this competition.

Browns Beat: DeShone Kizer has pulled ahead in QB competition

Browns QB DeShone Kizer has won the first week of training camp, and has moved closer to being named the starter for the preseason opener.

With the two-minute drill being a quarterback's showcase, Cody Kessler and Brock Osweiler have not helped themselves this week.

Heading into the Orange and Brown scrimmage on Friday at FirstEnergy Stadium, Kizer not only won the day Thursday, but has won the first seven days of training camp.

In fact, it's not even close. Now, all he has to do is more of the same in the scrimmage to earn the nod against the Saints.

"Obviously after we have the scrimmage and go through that process (I'll decide),'' said Jackson. "Next week, there's really two days of practice before we play.''

Jackson stressed however, that the order could flip again depending on how things go. But if all goes as expected, it will be soon be Kizer's job to lose.

Fantasy Impact: 

The Browns are one of the few teams with a legit quarterback competition. If Kizer wins the job, it's conceivable that he'll work his way into the streaming conversation as the season wears on.
