With the Browns and Eagles both expected to sit most of their key players, Sunday's preseason game is a big chance for a lot of reserves and rookies.
It took two plays in the Jacksonville game to see the Browns' plans at center blow up. Since that's not likely an option, Sunday will give the two players vying to be the actual backup to Brissett during Watson's 11-game suspension a chance to put a lot of snaps on film. That isn't expected to be the case next Saturday, when the Browns are expected to treat the preseason finale against the Bears as a dress rehearsal. There's not much to choose from at quarterback when Stefanski has already said that both Jacoby Brissett and Deshaun Watson aren't going to play against the Eagles. Ford, the fifth-round pick out of Cincinnati, ran for 57 yards on 10 carries, and caught four passes for 45 yards. The difference is, there may be even fewer of their starters and key backups who will play than even did against the Jaguars.

The Eagles brought some pressure, and it was interesting to watch Deshaun Watson and Brissett handle it because they are mobile. Stefanski was really upset with his left tackle and the offense in general for the unforced errors during one part of the practice. In some of the 11-on-11 drills, the offense was flagged several times for penalties such as false starts and illegal formations. was flagged twice times and was pulled from the controlled scrimmage.

If Anthony Schwartz can pull himself together and start catching the ball, the door is open for him to grab significant playing time. He has seen all of the coverages. The thing I really like about Jacoby is he really understands concepts from a receiver’s perspective. But he is one of those guys who seems to play even bigger because of how he uses his body to create space and hold off a defender. The two teams had joint practices together in Berea on Thursday and Friday before they meet again for Sunday’s preseason matchup. It’s hard to believe the Andrew Berry front office traded only a
The Browns had some early success with QB Josh Dobbs but couldn't come out on top.
What's next?: The Browns will play their third and final preseason game against the Bears on Saturday at FirstEnergy Stadium. The game was decided when: The Browns went three-and-out on their final possession of the game, which started five seconds after the two-minute warning. The Browns kept the ball moving with Dobbs under center and went 3-for-6 on third-downs.
The Cleveland Browns took on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, showing some potential in the second pre-season game of the year.
The onus on the week was about the joint practices, and not really on the game. The ironic thing, Michael Dunn started the game at center, and was quite excellent during his time at center. Even though the fans didn’t show up, the Browns’ offense sure did, which was a change from last week against Jacksonville.
In the first preseason game, Bell made a big play. In prep for the game against the Eagles, @joshkeatley16 looks at the undrafted DB's strengths and ...

Winfrey did not appear to play in the first quarter and was invisible for much of the game he did play. Athletically, Winfrey has plenty for the Browns to like, but he needs significant refinement with his technique and added consistency. The Browns defensive tackle who has been pegged as one of their top four as they prepare for the season.
After Cade York's field goal miss, quarterback Reid Sinnett hits wide receiver Devon Allen with a 55-yard score with 3:42 left in the third quarter.
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said Watson will not play in the remaining two preseason games. 10:55 left in the second quarter. A 17-play, 75 yards, 7:35 drive capped by a Kenneth Gainwell 2-yard touchdown gives the Eagles a 14-7 lead. They now lead 20-14 after the extra point. Eagles take a 21-20 lead. The lead remains 20-14 Browns.
Jim Donovan, Mueller's successor as 3News' sports director, confirmed his passing prior to Sunday's Browns preseason game.

With a [wet field likely](https://brownswire.usatoday.com/2022/08/21/browns-vs-eagles-weather-rain/) and two days of joint practices this week, it is unlikely that either team is going to risk many of their key contributors. QB Deshaun Watson will also not play against the Eagles or in the team’s preseason finale.

Barring injury, Dobbs is Cleveland's backup quarterback going into 2022 and that isn't a bad thing. QB Josh Rosen Did Not Look Good.
With Demetric Felton and others not playing, Harley’s performance should help him fight to make the roster. It could also give them ammunition to make some trades. Before the snap, Cleveland was rushing a player on which created a rushed operation before the kick. He needs to make those but it is understandable. With the injuries at the position, Mike Dunn took over as the team’s center Sunday and played very well. Roderick Perry and Glenn Logan, both undrafted free agents, performed better than the excitable fourth-round pick. Wright showed he can help as did Isaac Rochell and Chris Odom again on Sunday. This week, fellow rookie DE Alex Wright played very well. They weren’t breaking off big runs but consistently pushing the pocket. It is possible he is the team’s practice squad quarterback but that isn’t certain after that showing. Not only did Dobbs show that he could run around to make plays but many of his throws on Sunday were NFL caliber. Ken Blaze-USA TODAY Sports
Dobbs received the bulk of snaps at QB in the second preseason game and kept the offense moving.
It was a good hit, it just went right off the upright." "It felt good off the foot," York said. "The joint practice was amazing," he said. It was a good play." Sunday was the first time Bell played because of a foot injury that sidelined him the first week of training camp. He stayed in bounds and managed to squeeze a few more yards to the end of the run after juking around another tackler.
One of the highlights of the day was a 50-yard FG from the Cleveland rookie in the first half.
Kicking at the stadium is still a puzzle York needs to solve. That in and of itself is promising considering maybe the biggest challenge kicking at FirstEnergy Stadium has to do with the weather, and leg strength will make working through that much easier.

When kicking against no pressure during that session -- with the caveat that no officials were signaling made and missed kicks-- York appeared to miss only once from 61 yards. He’s willing to do the work, but the reality is as a young kicker in a somewhat notorious stadium at his position, he will take some lumps. He made 54 of 66 field goals and 164 of 168 extra points in his college career. He also knocked down an easy, last-second 19-yarder to pull the Browns within 1, 14-13 at halftime. He had a chance to come down to the stadium to kick about seven times during the voluntary portion of the offseason. When the weather gets even worse in the coming weeks, and the rain, snow, and wind really begin to pick up off the shores of Lake Erie, that will be the real test and the real opportunities to learn. York’s patented leg strength has been evident for fans who have had a chance to watch him kick on the practice field at training camp with minimal misses and lots of distance. York is a perfectionist who is always striving to improve -- but the good thing is he’s also realistic and knows that with kicking, there is no finish line.
Gardner Minshew and a steady rushing attack propelled the Philadelphia Eagles past the Cleveland Browns, 21-20, in Week 2 of the 2022 NFL preseason.
The unit surrendered only two pressures — both hurries — on 33 team pass-blocking snaps. He is set to be Cleveland's highest-graded receiver from the contest after grabbing three of his four targets for 46 yards in addition to forcing a missed tackle. He caught his other two targets for 20 yards. The former first-round pick posted just a 36.8% adjusted completion rate but did make a big-time throw. He was particularly efficient when targeting the 10-to-19-yard range, going 5-of-6 for 77 yards in that area of the field. [Josh Jobe](https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/josh-jobe/83122) also forced an incompletion and didn't allow a catch on two targets into his coverage.

And I know if I do that then I’ll be in the right position that I need to be.” He dropped one pass on that side, but Dobbs came back to him with the same play on the next snap and he beat Vincent for the 11-yarder. “The ball was just snapped a little bit to the left and I dropped it,” he said. Dobbs gave way to Josh Rosen after his lone drive in the third quarter, but the former first-round pick, fighting for a roster spot, failed to generate points on his five possessions. The miss was a deep ball down the right side that slipped through his hands at the 10. “I was running while I was looking at the sideline. He gave the guys opportunities to make some plays.” “I saw the string like down to my ankle,” he said. The clothing malfunction left a long strip flailing behind him, like he was a kid playing flag football. “But he just made a nice little crop top.’’ Against the Eagles, he completed 14-of-20 attempts for 141 yards with no TD passes or INTs for a 89.8 rating in his four series. A fourth-round pick of the Steelers in 2017, Dobbs has attempted only 17 NFL passes and completed 10, but he at least gave the Browns something to think about as they navigate most of the season without their $230 million man.

If the Browns make a change on that side of the ball, it's likely going to come from outside the current roster. That was on display a handful of times against the Eagles, able to get into the backfield and blow up plays on the blitz and close on pass catchers. The Browns have a several linebackers all likely competing for one spot, so Fields is by no means safe, but he at showed some of the ability that the Browns saw when they decided to draft him in the fifth round. continue to be in the mix. looks like he will be a priority for the Browns practice squad. He still needs to work on developing a plan as a pass rusher, but the tools are eye-popping. He was the Browns leading receiver in the contest, able to make some receptions and block well. Alex Taylor was in for all of the Browns 72 offensive snaps and he was impressive. Anthony Schwartz is heavily criticized for drops and he had another one against the Eagles, prompting many to dismiss his performance entirely. The Browns were showcasing Taylor in an attempt to draw interest from teams that have question marks on their offensive line. Stepping in and trying to make early contributions at that position isn't easy, but the Browns had little issue with the former Georgia Bulldog. Failing that, the Browns would be happy to have him on their practice squad.

The Cleveland Browns gave away no secrets with their starters on Sunday, but these three young players will struggle to make the roster.
Joel Bitonio and Wyatt Teller may be the best starting duo in the NFL, with good depth in Michael Dunn, Blake Hance, and even Chris Hubbard — and all of them play multiple positions. Here are three young guys who may struggle to make this roster. It will be interesting to see if that tone changes if the 49ers do end up releasing Garopollo.
