The Winston addition to the Browns is a bit surprising for some fans, especially considering how well Joe Flacco played a year ago. Browns starter Deshaun Watson had season ending shoulder surgery midway through last year and Flacco flourished as the starter in his absence.
From
ESPN:
Winston has spent the past four seasons as a backup quarterback in New Orleans, including 10 starts. Before that, the No. 1 pick in the 2015 draft out of Florida State started five seasons for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In his final season in Tampa, he threw 33 touchdowns with 30 interceptions.
