Josh McCown may find himself starting in the NFL again by default. With Johnny Manziel in rehab and uncertain about his future, Josh McCown has decided to sign with the Cleveland Browns.

McCown’s signing decreases the chances that the Browns will re-sign Brian Hoyer, who’s gone 10-6 for them over the past two years, including 7-6 this season.
The Browns signed McCown to be a mentor to Johnny Manziel and Connor Shaw — knowing he could start if called upon.
