Everyone has seen it.
The brown Cleveland Browns jersey, complete with a list of last names that makes the extra large shirt look extra, extra large.
Those names make up the 38 different quarterback the Browns have had since their return to the NFL in 1999. The Browns enjoyed a history of good quarterbacks (Otto Graham, Brian Sipe, Bernie Kosar and Vinny Testaverde, just to name a few) before Art Modell moved the team to Baltimore in 1996. But the struggle ever since has been very real.
This year the Browns earned the dubious honor of becoming the first team to make the postseason using four different starting quarterbacks. That list grew to five when they started Jeff Driskel for the season finale to rest new hero/old rival Joe Flacco.
But who exactly are all those quarterbacks to pass through Cleveland during the past 25 years?
