News

  • Confirmed to start Week 16

    Thompson-Robinson confirmed Tuesday that he's been named the Browns' starting quarterback for Sunday's game in Cincinnati, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. "Obviously excited for the opportunity," Thompson-Robinson said, while speaking to media at a charity event. "Still going to prepare and study the same way I do every week, and looking to go out there and get a win."

    Analysis: Head coach Kevin Stefanski will presumably address the change at quarterback when he speaks to the media Wednesday, but the Browns will turn the offense over to Thompson-Robinson after Jameis Winston went 2-5 over seven starts and threw eight interceptions over the last three games alone. Thompson-Robinson, who came on for the final two possessions of Sunday's 21-7 loss to Kansas City, has made 12 career appearances (three starts) in two seasons, rushing 20 times for 125 yards and completing…read more

  • Replacing Winston as starter

    Thompson-Robinson is expected to replace Jameis Winston as the Browns' starting quarterback in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

    Analysis: Though Winston initially breathed life into a stagnant Cleveland passing attack when he took over for the injured Deshaun Watson (Achilles) as the team's starter in Week 8, he's also been mistake-prone. After throwing a trio of interceptions -- including two in the end zone -- in Sunday's 21-7 loss to Kansas City, Winston was pulled from the game midway through the fourth quarter in favor of Thompson-Robinson, who completed four of nine pass attempts for 18 yards and an interception to go with…read more

  • Uncertain status Week 16

    Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski has not committed to Thompson-Robinson as the starter for Week 16 against the Bengals, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. "We're still putting [Sunday's] game to bed," Stefanski said.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson came on in relief of Jameis Winston in Sunday's 21-7 loss to the Chiefs. Winston threw three interceptions and was pulled in the fourth quarter. Thompson-Robinson also threw a pick on one of the two drives he engineered. Winston's had an issue taking care of the ball, having thrown 12 interceptions (and two fumbles lost) over his seven starts. Stefanski may not consider Thompson-Robinson as the Browns' preferred quarterback of the present or future, but he's under contract for…read more

  • Enters for benched starter

    Thompson-Robinson completed four of nine passes for 18 yards, rushed three times for 16 yards and threw an interception in Sunday's 21-7 loss to Kansas City.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson relieved Jameis Winston, who threw multiple interceptions for a third consecutive week while leading an offense that gained just 228 yards over 12 drives. However, Thompson-Robinson didn't do any better in his two series. It was the second-year pro out of UCLA's most significant action since Week 7, when he entered for an injured Deshaun Watson (Achilles) and threw two interceptions. In two NFL seasons, Thompson-Robinson has thrown seven interceptions in 75 drop-backs.…read more

  • Mops up blowout loss

    Thompson-Robinson went 0-for-1 in Sunday's 35-14 loss to New Orleans in Week 11.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson entered the game for Cleveland's final drive, which was a three-and-out with an incomplete pass and two runs. Starter Jameis Winston threw for 395 yards and woke up a dormant passing offense for the second time in three weeks. That suggests Winston will stay on as the starter for now, but the organization may want to get a fuller look at Thompson-Robinson before this disappointing season ends.

  • Remains backup

    Thompson-Robinson will remain the Browns' backup quarterback Sunday against the Saints after head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Monday that Jameis Winston will remain the team's starter, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site.

    Analysis: Winston, who started the last two games following the season-ending injury to Deshaun Watson (Achilles), will get the nod once again in Week 11, but his leash may not be long. He threw three interceptions and was sacked six times in a Week 9 loss to the Chargers, and Stefanski mentioned keeping turnovers in check being a point of emphasis as the Browns return from a Week 10 bye. With Watson's long-term future with the Browns murky at best and Winston scheduled for free agency this offseason,…read more

  • Will work as No. 2 QB Sunday

    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Friday that Thompson-Robinson (finger) will work as the backup to Jameis Winston during Sunday's game against the Ravens, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Stefanski said Thompson-Robinson has looked good passing in practice despite him having sustained a tendon injury to the middle finger on his throwing hand Week 7. In the wake of Deshaun Watson (Achilles) going down to a season-ending injury, Jameis Winston will get first crack at revitalizing Cleveland's offense. Still, with the team sitting at a 1-6 record, any significant struggles on Winston's part could motivate the Browns to try and get an extended look at Thompson-Robinson, as the 2023…read more

  • Optimism for Week 8 availability

    Browns offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey said Thursday that Thompson-Robinson looked good throwing at Wednesday's practice, and that the team will continue to evaluate his prospects of suiting up as the backup to Jameis Winston for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson was a full participant in Wednesday's practice despite having suffered a tendon injury to the middle finger on his throwing hand during Cleveland's loss to the Bengals in Week 7. Winston has already been named the starter in the wake of a season-ending injury to Deshaun Watson (Achilles), and if Thompson-Robinson's throwing ability is deemed to be significantly impeded, Bailey Zappe would be in line to handle No. 2 duties Week 8.

  • Full participant Wednesday

    Thompson-Robinson (finger) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson looks likely to be available for Sunday's game against the Ravens, though Jameis Winston has already been named the Week 8 starter due to concerns about how Thompson-Robinson's finger injury might affect his throwing. With the Browns heading into Sunday's contest with a 1-6 record and with Deshaun Watson (Achilles) out for the season, it may be just a matter of time until the Browns turn to Thompson-Robinson under center to see just to get an extended evaluation on the 2023…read more

  • Practicing, but won't start Sunday

    Thompson-Robinson (finger) is in line to practice Wednesday, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Kevin Stefanski noted Wednesday that the Browns plan to see how Thompson-Robinson progresses from his finger injury -- specifically in terms of his throwing -- before a determination on the quarterback's availability for Sunday's game against the Ravens. In any case, Jameis Winston has been confirmed as the team's starter for Week 8, with Bailey Zappe an option to back Winston up if Thompson-Robinson isn't available.

  • Won't start Week 8

    Thompson-Robinson (finger) won't start Sunday's game against the Ravens, as Jameis Winston is instead on track to step in under center in place of the injured Deshaun Watson (Achilles) in Week 8, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: After slotting third on the depth chart behind Watson and Winston to begin the season, Thompson-Robinson was active as the No. 2 quarterback for this past Sunday's loss to the Bengals, while Winston was inactive as the emergency No. 3 option. Thrust into action when Watson suffered a season-ending ruptured Achilles' tendon late in the second quarter, Thompson-Robinson went on to complete 11 of 24 passes for 82 yards and two interceptions while rushing three times for 44 yards before leaving in…read more

  • Likely to avoid multi-week absence

    Thompson-Robinson is dealing with a injured tendon on the middle finger of his throwing hand, but the Browns don't believe he'll miss multiple weeks due to the issue, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

    Analysis: While Thompson-Robinson appears on track to avoid a stint on injured reserve, the second-year quarterback's status for a Week 8 game against the Ravens is still in flux. After starter Deshaun Watson suffered a season-ending Achilles injury late in the second quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Bengals, Thompson-Robinson came off the bench and completed 11 of 24 pass attempts for 82 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions while adding 44 yards on three carries before he was lifted from…read more

  • Feels good, undergoing MRI

    Thompson-Robinson (finger) received negative X-ray results on his right middle finger Monday but is undergoing an MRI to determine the severity of the injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Bengals shortly after replacing Deshaun Watson (Achilles), who exited with a season-ending injury. Both Jameis Winston and Thompson-Robinson are candidates to handle quarterback duties for Cleveland in the wake of Watson's injury, beginning Week 8 at home against Baltimore. Of course, Thompson-Robinson's health will play a key factor in determining his immediate role on offense. Thompson-Robinson was active as Watson's backup versus…read more

  • Finger injury not thought to be serious

    The finger injury Thompson-Robinson suffered Sunday against the Bengals is not believed to be major, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: That said, Rapoport notes that how Thompson-Robinson's finger responds to treatment and how he can grip a football will determine his availability for next weekend's game against the Ravens. With fears that Deshaun Watson has suffered a season-ending Achilles injury, Thompson-Robinson, if available, and Jameis Winston are candidates to handle the Browns' QB duties going forward.

  • Exits Sunday's game

    Thompson-Robinson exited Sunday's game against the Bengals after sustaining a finger injury, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Deshaun Watson having previously been ruled out of the contest after suffering a potentially serious Achilles injury, Thompson-Robinson has now given way to Jameis Winston, who was the Browns' emergency third QB on Sunday. Given Watson's injury and Thompson-Robinson's finger issue, Cleveland's signal-caller situation will be worth closely monitoring ahead of next weekend's game against the Ravens.

The two will swap roles Sunday, giving Thompson-Robinson a better chance to see actual game action than in any previous contest this season. No reason for the switch was immediately provided by head coach Kevin Stefanski, but more information may be provided in coming days. The change could hint that…read more

    Thompson-Robinson is expected to open the regular season as Cleveland's third quarterback behind starter Deshaun Watson and top backup Jameis Winston, Scott Petrak of BrownsZone.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson and Winston recently beat out Tyler Huntley for reserve spots on the 53-man roster. While coach Kevin Stefanski hasn't officially clarified the order of backups behind Watson, and Thompson-Robinson did log an impressive preseason, Petrak reports that Winston remains the favorite to work as Watson's top backup Week 1 versus the Cowboys. Winston had been linked to trade rumors shortly after training camp however, so it's possible Cleveland's quarterback depth chart will be…read more

  • May be top backup

    Thompson-Robinson could head into Week 1 as the top backup to starting quarterback Deshaun Watson, as the Browns are reportedly entertaining trade offers for reserve signal-callers Jameis Winston and Tyler Huntley, according to Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

    Analysis: The Browns kept four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster, so it would seem they are in the market to deal at least one of them. Winston was viewed as the top backup quarterback during training camp and the preseason, while the competition for the third spot was between Thompson-Robinson and Huntley.

  • Mixed bag in Saturday's start

    Thompson-Robinson completed 13 of 17 passes for 126 yards and an interception in Saturday's 27-12 preseason loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: The Browns sat their starters and key reserves for this one, and Thompson-Robinson got the start over Tyler Huntley as the duo compete for the No. 3 spot on the quarterback depth chart. Thompson-Robinson was efficient and led a touchdown drive on Cleveland's opening possession, but he also ended his day with an interception in the red zone during a two-minute drill just before halftime. Huntley got picked off twice in the second half, however, providing little clarity on the job battle.

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Thursday that Thompson-Robinson will start Saturday's exhibition game against the Vikings, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson will get a chance to make a case for his spot on the 53-man roster Saturday, with Deshaun Watson not slated for on-field reps until Cleveland's preseason finale. Jameis Winston is solidified as the No. 2 option behind Watson, which leaves Thompson-Robinson competing against Tyler Huntley for the No. 3 gig.

    Thompson-Robinson (hip) participated in practice Tuesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson was limited in drills during mandatory minicamp in June while rehabbing from a hip subluxation injury he sustained in Week 15 against the Texans. He appears be fully healthy as training camp gets underway, and he will compete with Tyler Huntley and Jameis Winston for the backup quarterback job behind starter Deshaun Watson.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson is still not fully cleared from a hip subluxation suffered during the Browns' Week 15 win over the Texans. There was hope he'd be cleared in time for mandatory minicamp, which began Monday, but it does appear the UCLA product is at least making progress in his recovery. DTR is expected to compete with Jameis Winston and Tyler Huntley for the top backup role behind Deshaun Watson (shoulder).

With his MRI indicating that Thompson-Robinson hasn't experienced any setbacks in his recovery from the hip injury, he could be close to returning to full activities.

His most recent MRI in March revealed progress in his rehab, and Thompson-Robinson is hoping the latest one this upcoming week will allow him to get the green light to do some on-field work with the team's rookies and fellow younger players.

  • Still bouncing back from hip issue

    GM Andrew Berry noted recently that the Browns could proceed cautiously this offseason with Thompson-Robinson, who is bouncing back from a season-ending hip injury, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: "We always want to be cautious and mindful of our guys coming back from injury concerns," Berry noted last Tuesday. Though the hip issue that landed Thompson-Robinson on IR last December didn't require surgery, the QB has still been undergoing rehab of late, and with the Browns having added Jameis Winston and Tyler Huntley in free agency, the team can afford to proceed deliberately with both Thompson-Robinson and Deshaun Watson (shoulder).

    The Browns placed Thompson-Robinson (hip) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: Since clearing the concussion protocol, the fifth-round pick out of UCLA has appeared in each of the team's last three games, taking a handful of snaps behind Joe Flacco in specific packages. Thompson-Robinson apparently injured his hip during his brief cameo in Sunday's 36-22 win over the Texans, and the team decided it could put his roster spot to better use for the rest of the regular season. He's technically eligible to be activated as soon as the AFC Championship Game, should the Browns…read more

    Thompson-Robinson was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate due to a hip injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson logged nine offensive snaps in Sunday's win at Houston, including an entire possession in the fourth quarter with the Browns up 36-7 at the time. During that drive, he appeared to get banged up, but the team didn't reveal a health concern until one day later. It's unclear if Thompson-Robinson is in danger of missing Thursday's game against the Jets, but if he's unable to serve as Joe Flacco's backup, Cleveland likely will elevate PJ Walker from the practice squad to handle No.…read more

    Thompson-Robinson completed his only passing attempt for five yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over Chicago.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson entered the game for one play and completed a pass to Jerome Ford in the red zone before starter Joe Flacco re-entered the game. The Browns have used Thompson-Robinson in certain packages since anointing Flacco the No. 1 QB. In three snaps over the last two games, the rookie quarterback has handed the ball off once, run for a first down and thrown one pass.

    Thompson-Robinson had one carry for five yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars in Week 14.

    Analysis: The Browns used Thompson-Robinson for two plays, including a personnel package in the fourth quarter that resulted in his five-yard keeper to pick up a first down. The rookie is expected to serve in a package-specific role going forward, as Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski declared following the game that Joe Flacco will be the team's starter the remainder of the season, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

Flacco took most of the first-team reps in practice this week, but Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski declined to name a Week 14 starting quarterback after Thompson-Robinson cleared the protocol Friday while practicing fully that same day.

    Thompson-Robinson doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars after clearing the NFL's concussion protocol Friday, but head coach Kevin Stefanski wouldn't commit to either the rookie or Joe Flacco serving as the team's starting quarterback in Week 14, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After exiting the Browns' Week 12 loss to the Broncos upon suffering the concussion, Thompson-Robinson sat out last week's loss to the Rams while Flacco was elevated from the practice squad and replaced him as the Browns' starter. Flacco was generally efficient in the 36-19 loss with 23 completions on 44 attempts for 254 yards, but he also threw a costly fourth-quarter interception that ended any hope of the Browns making a come-from-behind victory.

    Thompson-Robinson has cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, but head coach Kevin Stefanski said Friday that he's not yet to ready to name a starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: According to Cabot, the Browns are expected to wait until gameday to decide whether Thompson-Robinson will step back in as Cleveland's starter, or if Joe Flacco will draw a second consecutive start. The Browns have yet to release their final Week 14 injury report, so Thompson-Robinson could still end up carrying a designation into Sunday's contest despite clearing the protocol.

    Thompson-Robinson (concussion) was present for practice Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer notes that earlier Thursday offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said he believes Thompson-Robinson is still in the NFL's concussion protocol and has one more box to check in order to gain clearance ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Per Petrak, Van Pelt indicated that the Browns have yet to make a decision on the team's Week 14 starter at QB, but Cabot believes that Joe Flacco is trending toward toward facing Jacksonville this…read more

  • Limited in return to practice

    Thompson-Robinson (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Petrak relays that Joe Flacco took the first-team reps, while Thompson-Robinson worked with the second-team offense in his return to practice. Head coach Kevin Stefanski wasn't ready to name a starting quarterback Wednesday, saying he wanted to see things play out in practice this week before deciding on a starter for Sunday's game against Jacksonville. The early signs point to Flacco getting the nod, especially after his competent showing while directing the offense in this past Sunday's loss…read more

  • Returns to practice, may not start

    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that Thompson-Robinson (concussion) will return to practice Wednesday, but a decision has yet to be made on a Week 14 starting quarterback, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson remains in the concussion protocol, but his ability to practice in some capacity Wednesday represents progress on some level after the rookie quarterback sat out last week's loss to the Rams. While veteran Joe Flacco didn't exactly light up the Rams while starting in Thompson-Robinson's absence, his 254 passing yards and two touchdowns (albeit on 44 attempts) surpasses what the Browns have seen from Thompson-Robinson in any of his three starts this season. The rookie…read more

  • Remains in concussion protocol

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Thompson-Robinson remains in the concussion protocol, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson missed Week 13 while in the concussion protocol, and he will need to gain full clearance before returning to the lineup. As such, his status is still in question for Cleveland's matchup against Jacksonville in Week 14. If Thompson-Robinson can't return to full health before the Browns take on the Jaguars, Joe Flacco will likely draw another start, with PJ Walker also being an option.

  • Ruled out this week

    Thompson-Robinson (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Rams, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Thompson-Robinson unavailable this week due to a concussion, veteran signal-caller Joe Flacco is poised to be elevated from the Browns' practice ahead of Sunday's contest in order to draw the start Week 13. Thompson-Robinson now will target a potential return to action Sunday, Dec. 10 against the Jaguars.

  • Remains spectator for practice

    Thompson-Robinson (concussion) was listed as a non-participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Earlier Thursday, offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt told Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer that Thompson-Robinson underwent additional concussion testing. The rookie quarterback ultimately wasn't able to advance to limited practice participation, which would have represented a sign of progress as he navigates the five-step protocol. Thompson-Robinson could still have a chance at playing Sunday against the Rams if he's able to get back on the practice field in some capacity Friday,…read more

  • No practice Wednesday

    Thompson-Robinson (concussion) won't practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: The Browns were forced to turn the offense back over to P.J. Walker after Thompson-Robinson suffered a concussion in the third quarter of Sunday's loss to the Broncos. The rookie hasn't performed much better than his veteran counterpart, but Thompson-Robinson seems more likely than not to be the starter again once he exits concussion protocol. Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that Joe Flacco is now Thompson-Robinson's backup, suggesting that the 38-year-old will start Sunday's game at…read more

  • Sustains concussion

    Thompson-Robinson was diagnosed with a concussion after exiting Sunday's game in Denver, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson left the contest late in the third quarter after enduring a roughing the passer penalty from Broncos linebacker Baron Browning. With a concussion confirmed, Thompson-Robinson will end Week 12 with 134 yards and a touchdown on 14-for-29 passing and five carries for 21 yards. He'll yield the Browns offense to PJ Walker for the rest of Sunday's outing.

  • Set to start Week 12

    Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Thompson-Robinson will start Sunday's game versus Denver, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson is set for another week as Cleveland's starter, after he successfully led the team to a 13-10 win over the Steelers while completing 24 of 43 passes for 165 yards, no touchdowns and one interception. He also logged three carries for 20 yards. The rookie fifth-round pick will get another chance to show what he can do Week 12, albeit against a Broncos defense that has improved down the stretch. Still, Thompson-Robinson's rushing abilities provide him fantasy upside even in less…read more

  • Helps Cleveland to victory

    Thompson-Robinson completed 24 of 43 passes for 165 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Steelers. He added three rushes for 20 yards.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson drew his second career start and worked nearly exclusively in short areas of the field. He mostly avoided turnovers and significant mistakes and instead executed Cleveland's game plan of engaging in a struggle based on defense and field position. His stat line was ugly, but Thompson-Robinson picked the right time to connect for significant gains as he completed passes of 15 and 11 yards to set up the game-winning field goal with only five seconds remaining in the contest.

  • Confirmed as Week 11 starter

    Head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Wednesday that Thompson-Robinson will serve as the Browns' starting quarterback Sunday against the Steelers, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson is getting the starting assignment after the Browns announced earlier Wednesday that top quarterback Deshaun Watson will miss the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury that will require season-ending surgery. Though Thompson-Robinson was designated the team's No. 3 quarterback for this past Sunday's 33-31 win over the Ravens, he's now overtaken PJ Walker, who previously made a pair of starts while Watson missed time with the shoulder injury. Thompson-Robinson also picked…read more

  • Could start Sunday

    The Browns could turn to Thompson-Robinson to serve as their starting quarterback Sunday against the Steelers, with Deshaun Watson slated to miss the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Kevin Stefanski will address the media later Wednesday and could clarify whether Thompson-Robinson or PJ Walker -- who served as Watson's top backup in the Browns' Week 10 win over the Ravens -- will take over as the team's starting quarterback. Thompson-Robinson previously started the Browns' Week 4 game against the Ravens when Watson was sidelined, but he completed just 19 of 36 pass attempts for 121 yards and three interceptions in a 28-3 blowout loss.

    Thompson-Robinson is the Browns' emergency third QB for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

  • Makes an appearance

    Thompson-Robinson completed his lone pass attempt for nine yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: The rookie played one snap -- the first play of the second quarter -- and shoveled a pass to David Njoku. It was Thompson-Robinson's first appearance since Week 4. The Browns have been getting by with PJ Walker as a fill-in for the injured Deshaun Watson (shoulder) at quarterback, and while Walker's managed to pull out two wins in three weeks, he's thrown five interceptions and lost a fumble during that stretch. Two of his three turnovers Sunday led to two Seattle touchdowns, and Cleveland's…read more

  • Healthy scratch

    Thompson-Robinson (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's contest against the Colts.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson served as the No. 2 quarterback in Weeks 1 through 3 and subsequently started Week 4. However, he has since fallen behind PJ Walker in the pecking order under center. With Deshaun Watson (shoulder) set to return Sunday, Thompson-Robinson slots in as the Browns' No. 3 quarterback option in Week 7.

  • Drops behind Walker on depth chart

    Thompson-Robinson has been surpassed on the depth chart by PJ Walker, and head coach Kevin Stefanski announced Wednesday that Walker would start Sunday against the 49ers if Deshaun Watson (shoulder) is unable to play, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson looked overwhelmed in his first NFL start with Watson sidelined Week 4, as the rookie fifth-round pick threw for just 121 yards on 36 passes with three interceptions in a 28-3 loss to Baltimore. Cleveland's coaching staff didn't do him any favors, as Thompson-Robinson was not prepped during the practice week with a start in mind. Head coach Kevin Stefanski and others expected Watson to start, and Thompson-Robinson was merely taking practice reps in an offensive scheme that was…read more

  • Picked off thrice in first start

    Thompson-Robinson completed 19 of 36 passes for 121 yards and three interceptions while rushing four times for 24 yards in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson made his first NFL start after Deshaun Watson (shoulder) was ruled out during pregame warmups. After showcasing a promising mix of passing and rushing ability in preseason, the 2023 fifth-round pick out of UCLA was overmatched in his regular-season debut. Thompson-Robinson turned 17 first-half pass attempts into 60 yards and an interception, as the Browns took a 21-3 deficit into the locker room. His second-half performance was equally ineffective, with an interception in the…read more

  • In line to start Sunday

    Thompson-Robinson is slated to start at quarterback in Sunday's game against the Ravens in place of the injured Deshaun Watson (shoulder) Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Per Cabot, the Browns had optimism that Watson would be able to start Sunday despite carrying a questionable tag into the weekend, but he'll end up sitting out the Week 4 contest after he was still experiencing discomfort while throwing in pregame warmups. Watson's absence paves the way for Thompson-Robinson, a rookie fifth-round pick out of UCLA, to make his first NFL start. Thompson-Robinson put his dual-threat skill set on display during the preseason, completing 37 of 58 attempts for 440…read more

  • Mops up win

    Thompson-Robinson played five snaps in Sunday's 27-3 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson saw regular-season action for the first time since being selected in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He mopped up on the final drive, handing off five times to Pierre Strong. It would take an injury to Deshaun Watson to thrust Thompson-Robinson into a role with significant fantasy value.

  • In line to back up Watson

    With Joshua Dobbs headed to the Cardinals in a trade Thursday, Thompson-Robinson is in line to serve as Deshaun Watson's top backup ahead of Week 1, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Earlier Thursday, coach Kevin Stefanski announced that Dobbs would be the team's No. 2 QB, but following the subsequent deal sending the signal-caller to Arizona, Thompson-Robinson now is in line to handle the role. Additionally, the Browns retained Kellen Mond as a depth option after initially planning to waive him.

  • Solid in preseason start

    Thompson-Robinson completed 13 of 25 passes for 164 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed four times for 18 yards in the Browns' 18-18 preseason tie with the Eagles on Thursday night. He also committed a fumble that he recovered.

    Analysis: The UCLA product was afforded the start and made good use of the opportunity, playing a turnover-free first half during which he only took one sack. Thompson-Robinson immediately led a 12-play, 75-yard drive on the Browns' first possession, only to see it culminate in a John Kelly fumble at the Eagles' three-yard line. Cleveland's next three drives ended in punts, but Thompson-Robinson was able to bounce back and lead the Browns to a pair of field goals before the end of the first half.…read more

  • Gets starting nod

    Dorian-Thompson will get the start Thursday against the Eagles, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Dorian-Thompson has been solid during the preseason, completing 17 of 21 passes for 184 yards, with 47 rushing yards on nine carries. This may be evidence that he has at least surpassed Kellen Mond, who will come in after the UCLA product, on the team's positional depth chart. Joshua Dobbs will not suit up.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson entered to start the third quarter and led the Browns on two lengthy drives. One possession ended in a Cade York missed field goal and the other when the quarterback delivered a well-thrown ball to David Bell for a seven-yard touchdown. The rookie has completed 17 of 21 throws for 184 yards and two touchdowns without an interception in two preseason games.

  • Impressive in second-half action

    Thompson-Robinson completed eight of 11 passes for 82 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while adding six carries for 36 yards during the Browns' 21-16 preseason win over the Jets in Thursday night's Hall of Fame Game.

    Analysis: Thompson-Robinson played the entire second half and immediately helmed an 11-play, 93-yard touchdown drive on his first possession. The rookie fifth-round pick was back at it two drives later, connecting with Austin Watkins for a 22-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter. Considering he didn't turn the ball over and also offered an impressive rushing dimension, Thompson-Robinson arguably outperformed his primary competitor for a roster spot, Kellen Mond, on the night. The two will…read more

    Thompson-Robinson will play in the second half against the Jets on Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Thomas-Robinson, who was selected in the fifth round of the 2023 Draft, should get a long look in the Hall of Fame Game. Although Deshaun Watson is the clear No. 1 quarterback on the team's positional depth chart, there is some uncertainty in the pecking order behind him between Kellen Mond, Joshua Dobbs and Thomas-Robinson. Mond is slated to draw the start Thursday.
