Most sentient football fans by now have seen some version of the Browns jersey featuring the league’s longest list of starting quarterbacks since 1999 — a total of 22 names to date. But even longer than that is the list of Browns quarterbacks who didn’t get the starting nod for a single game, at least not yet.
This litany of camp fodder, benchwarmers, and late-season emergency options now numbers 27, though when the second McCown in Browns QB history takes the field in Game 1, the balance between starters and non-starters will narrow to 23 to 26.
