Johnny Manziel

Browns will name QB starter before third preseason game

Cleveland Browns coach Mike Pettine plans to name his starting quarterback before the team's third preseason game. Johnny Manziel will get a chance to show what he can do as a starter before then.

NFL Media's Dan Hellie broke the news Saturday night that Manziel will start next week's preseason game, according to a team source. That start will come against the Washington Redskins on Monday Night Football. This will be the most hyped preseason game since, well, Manziel's first appearance Saturday night in Detroit against the Lions.

Fantasy Impact: 

Hoyer was just ok in his start against the Lions Saturday. The feeling is there isn't much separation between Manziel and Hoyer. It's ultimately up to Manziel. If he shines against Washington, he'll have a great chance to start again in Week 1.

Browns quarterback Brian Hoyer is back with Cleveland's first-string offense after spending a day behind rookie Johnny Manziel.

Hoyer took the initial snaps in 11-on-11 drills with the starters on Tuesday. Manziel got his first work in training camp with the Browns' first string on Monday, a move that led to speculation he had gained ground on Hoyer.

Browns coach Mike Pettine said Manziel's one-day promotion was part of the plan as Cleveland's coaching staff evaluates the two quarterbacks who are competing for the starting job.

Johnny Manziel gets first team reps

Browns rookie quarterback Johnny Manziel has taken his first snaps in training camp with Cleveland's starters.

Manziel is trying to beat out Brian Hoyer for the starting job. The former Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M had worked exclusively with Cleveland's second-string offense until Monday.

On his first play of 11-on-11 drills, Manziel completed a 40-yard pass to Travis Benjamin. The wide receiver came back to grab the underthrown ball. Moments later, Manziel's tipped pass intended for Josh Gordon was intercepted by safety Donte Whitner.

Browns coach Mike Pettine had promised he would give Manziel time with the first-unit offense, and he decided to do it as the team prepares for Saturday's exhibition opener in Detroit.

Fantasy Impact: 

Reports yesterday said Manziel was closing the gap on Hoyer, but still other writers felt that was media driven and not really the case at all. It's not uncommon for a different QBs on the depth chart to get reps with the first team.

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who underwent back surgery in December but has been participating in training camp, won't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Chargers.

“We've talked about it a little bit, and we're going to be smart,” Romo said, via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Charean Williams. “… Most likely I'll probably sit out the San Diego game and play in Game 2 and go from there.”

Last week, owner and general manager Jerry Jones announced that Romo was "100 percent" recovered from the surgery, but Jones also said the team was "that close" to drafting Johnny Manziel, a revelation that may or may not be true. Either way, Romo, 34, won't be on the field when the Cowboys face the Chargers, which means we'll get our first look at backups Brandon Weeden and Caleb Hanie.
