Browns News | Is Josh Dobbs The Favorite To Win The Backup QB Position ?

Locked On Browns - Daily Podcast On The Cleveland Browns

21-03-2023 • 31 mins

The Browns are signing quarterback Joshua Dobbs back to the team on a one-year deal, Dobbs’s agent Mike McCartney announced on Tuesday Dobbs was signed to a one-year deal with the Browns last April, in which he played as Jacoby Brissett’s backup quarterback until he was waived on Nov. 28, after Deshaun Watson returned to the team after his suspension. Watson missed 11 games last season due to violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. The investigation came after a total of 26 civil complaints were filed against Watson, describing graphic accounts of sexual harassment and sexual assault. Now Dobbs will backup Watson after Brissett signed with the Commanders last week. Dobbs has yet to make his Browns debut as he never took the field last season for Cleveland. Dobbs started two games for the Titans after he was picked up in December. The Titans lost both games, in which Dobbs completed 40 of 68 pass attempts for 411 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Prior to last season, Dobbs played two seasons on the Steelers as a backup quarterback to Ben Roethlisberger. Dobbs has appeared in eight games over the course of his pro career.

The Cleveland Browns have added another depth piece in NFL free agency, this time retaining another one of their own in linebacker Jordan Kunaszyk. This now puts the Browns at ten signings through the first week of free agency as they signed both Kunaszyk and tight end Jordan Akins this weekend. Kunaszyk spent most of his time on special teams with the Browns, racking up 316 snaps in the third phase of the game. According to PFF, Kunaszyk was graded as an elite special teamer in 2022. However, after three linebackers suffered season-ending injuries a year ago as well, Kunaszyk stepped in reserve at the second level of their defense as well. At just a one-year deal worth just over $1.2 million (with $500k guaranteed), this is a no-brainer move for the Browns as they continue to make sure they have depth to their roster.

Cleveland Browns have signed cornerback Mike Ford to a deal, a former Atlanta Falcons cornerback. Cleveland Browns look to have added another defender during free agency. Cornerback Mike Ford appears to be heading to the Browns and it looks to be a special team signing, with the potential to be depth on defense. Ford spent last season with the Atlanta Falcons, where he played in 17 games and made two starts. Ford played 83 percent of the Falcons special teams snaps and 15 tackles and one tackle for a loss. Ford has background of playing in the slot and could provide cleveland with depth there and as their fifth cornerback. Ford is still 27 years old and this will be his fourth NFL team. It looks like Ford could pair with Bubba Ventrone's special teams unit and have the chance to prove himself there.
