Cleveland’s quarterback competition is heading toward a resolution. Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, second-year passer Dillon Gabriel and rookie Taylen Green were all on the practice field Wednesday, and the Browns’ decision on a regular-season starter is expected to come after the second week of the preseason. Watson took the first preseason start against the Chicago Bears while Sanders is lined up to start against the Buffalo Bills, and recent reporting suggests Watson currently holds the edge for the Week 1 job. It is one of the most-watched position battles in the league right now, and it carries real DFS weight: the outlook for every Cleveland pass-catcher shifts depending on who takes the first snap, so lineup builders should wait on the official announcement before committing to a Browns stack.
