    Chiefs' Bailey Zappe: Gets deal with Kansas City

    The Kansas City Chiefs signed Bailey Zappe to a one-year contract Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Zappe spent time as a reserve option at quarterback for Cleveland in 2024, completing 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in his lone spot start. With Gardner Minshew (collarbone) the clear favorite to back up Patrick Mahomes after signing with Kanas City on Thursday, Zappe finds himself once again competing for a third-string role.

    Browns' Bailey Zappe: Struggles in spot start

    Bailey Zappe completed 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Saturday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens. He added two rushes for two yards.Zappe drew the start Saturday and ceded relatively limited work to Dorian Thompson-Robinson. The former's opportunity to start didn't go as planned, as he threw a pick-six on Cleveland's second possession and was unable to get the Cleveland Browns into the end zone until early in the fourth quarter with the team down three scores. Zappe will become a free agent this offseason and will try to compete for a backup job during training camp for the 2025 campaign.

    Browns' Bailey Zappe: In line to start Saturday

    Bailey Zappe will start at quarterback in Saturday's season finale against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.While Zappe is slated to make his Cleveland Browns debut this weekend, head coach Kevin Stefanski previously suggested that he expected Dorian Thompson-Robinson (calf) to also see some work versus Baltimore. The threat of losing snaps to Thompson-Robinson inhibits the overall fantasy ceiling of Zappe, whose appeal was already limited due to his unimpressive body of work during his time in New England over the past three seasons. In 14 career NFL appearances (eight starts), Zappe has completed 63.2 percent of his passes for 6.8 yards per attempt and an 11:12 TD:INT while offering little utility as a runner (27 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown).

    Browns' Bailey Zappe: Could play Week 18

    Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski said Tuesday that both Bailey Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson (calf) could see snaps at quarterback in Saturday's game at Baltimore, Patrick Warren of the Cleveland Browns' official site reports. "There's a scenario where we [play both], but I want to make sure we get through the week before making the final determination," Stefanski said.Zappe was signed to the Browns' active roster Oct. 22 but has yet to make his team debut. He served as the emergency third quarterback initially upon his arrival, but Zappe was elevated to the backup spot the last two weeks with Jameis Winston (shoulder) being the emergency quarterback. Stefanski said that Winston will likely be inactive once again Saturday, but a determination on whether Thompson-Robinson or Zappe starts won't be made until the end of the practice week.
