In a surprising turn of events, the Cleveland Browns will be facing a quarterback dilemma in Week Eight as they prepare to take on the Ravens. The fate of the Browns’ starting quarterback position hangs in the balance, with uncertainty surrounding who will lead the team on the field.
Dorian Thompson-Robinson stepped in as the No. 2 quarterback for the Browns last Sunday after Deshaun Watson went down with an Achilles injury in the first half. While Thompson-Robinson showed promise, a finger injury cut his time short on the field. This forced the Browns to turn to emergency quarterback Jameis Winston for the final stretch of the game.
According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, X-rays on Thompson-Robinson’s finger came back negative, but the quarterback is still awaiting MRI results. The outcome of the MRI will play a crucial role in determining the availability of both quarterbacks for the upcoming game.
During his time on the field, Winston completed 5 out of 11 passes for 67 yards and a touchdown. On the other hand, Thompson-Robinson went 11-of-24 for 82 yards, with two interceptions. Additionally, Thompson-Robinson showcased his athleticism by rushing for 44 yards on three carries.
As the Browns await the results of Thompson-Robinson’s MRI, the team is left to ponder their quarterback situation heading into Week Eight. The uncertainty surrounding their quarterback options adds an extra layer of intrigue to the upcoming matchup against the Ravens. The Browns will need to carefully evaluate their choices and make a decision that gives them the best chance of success on the field.
