Cleveland Browns Sign Bailey Zappe for QB Depth

The Cleveland Browns have signed quarterback Bailey Zappe from the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad following significant injuries to their starting quarterbacks. Deshaun Watson is out for the season with a torn Achilles, and backup Dorian Thompson-Robinson sustained a finger injury, leaving Jameis Winston as the current starter. Zappe, previously with the New England Patriots, brings experience with 2,053 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions from 14 games over the past two seasons. The Browns made this strategic move to bolster their quarterback lineup ahead of their upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens. This decision comes amid discontent among Browns players regarding fan reactions to Watson's injury. The team aims to stabilize their quarterback situation with Zappe as a potential backup to Winston.
