CLEVELAND, Ohio — Just when you thought the Cleveland Browns ’ quarterback situation couldn’t possibly get any weirder, the football gods said, “Hold my beer.”
In one corner: Bailey Zappe, the journeyman quarterback who once torched the Browns for 309 yards, now signed to their practice squad as an emergency option. In the other: Deshaun Watson, the franchise quarterback with the massive contract, whose return timeframe is nebulous but is suddenly generating mysterious “vibes” around the facility.
