The Browns have said with a straight face all offseason that Brian Hoyer will enter camp as their starter.

We’ll see soon how much they actually mean it.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Browns want to sign Hoyer to an extension, as he heads into the final year of his contract.

If the deal comes down before camp, the numbers alone should tell you about his long-term job prospects.

Otherwise, we’ll just continue with the long-held assumption that the job is Johnny Manziel’s unless he proves himself unprepared come training camp.
