For the Browns, they clearly believe DeShone Kizer is ready to be their starting quarterback. And for Osweiler, while he now is out of a job just one offseason after being one of the most sought after QBs thanks to his first impression with the Denver Broncos, still is owed $16 million. However, Cleveland still gets a second-round pick out of that deal.
