Johnny Manziel may be getting all the headline mentions this offseason, but a report Friday suggested that the Browns will give the ball to Brian Hoyer to start the season. According to ESPN, a Browns player said that they are "all expecting Hoyer to start" Week 1.

Recent reports indicated that the Browns would announce around the third preseason game, but this latest update claims the lockerroom feels coach Mike Pettine will announce Hoyer as the starter before then.
