Professional
NFL Draft
Coming into the draft Quinn was considered to be one of the top players in the country and was invited to attend the draft in person. Before the draft started, Quinn was labeled as a "franchise quarterback in the mold of Carson Palmer." He was projected to be picked in the top ten and even could have been the number one overall pick. While some suspected the Browns would select Quinn with the third pick, he fell to the 22nd pick in the draft before being picked up by them.
Following the draft, Quinn was criticized by Joe Theismann in a radio interview, claiming that Quinn looked "unprofessional" when he was on stage following his name being called. Theismann was bothered by the appearance of Quinn's hair and the fact that he was chewing gum. Quinn responded by saying that he apologizes to "anyone, obviously, who is a Notre Dame alum, or for those fans who thought I wasn't being very business like," saying that he was there for a long time and that the last thing that he thought of after his name was called was whether he was chewing gum or straightening his tie. "I was just trying to get on stage as fast as possible and get that Browns jersey in my hand," Quinn said.
Cleveland Browns
Brady Quinn's NFL debut as a Brown
After an initial holdout, Quinn signed a five-year deal with the Browns worth a reported $20.2 million, with $7.5 million guaranteed and up to $30 mil
lion in incentives. However, his 10-day absence from training camp all but ensured he would not win the Browns' starting job during his rookie season. He was placed third on the Browns' depth chart behind Charlie Frye and Derek Anderson. However, after a dismal 35-7 to the Pittsburgh Steelers] in Week 1, Charlie Frye was traded to the Seattle Seahawks for a sixth round draft pick, moving Quinn to second on the Brown's depth chart. On December 30, 2007, when Anderson hurt his pinky and wrist, Quinn made his official NFL debut in the Browns' final game of the season against the San Francisco 49ers. Although there was speculation that the Browns would trade Anderson to get back into the first round of the 2008 NFL Draft, Browns' general manager, Phil Savage, later stated that he hoped to sign Anderson, and keep both quarterbacks for the 2008 season.After having a Pro-Bowl season and leading the Browns to a 10-6 record, Derek Anderson was named the starting quarterback for the 2008 season, leaving Quinn on the sidelines once again. However, after a 3-5 start by the team, coach Romeo Crennel chose Brady to be the starting quarterback for the Browns' November 6, 2008 game against the Denver Broncos.[36] Though he played quite well, and helped the Browns build a two-touchdown lead into the third quarter, the Broncos rallied back to win, ruining Quinn's first official start. However, he went on to win the next game against the Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately, he also broke his finger during this victory, and though he tried to play through it during the next game against the Houston Texans, he announced on November 25 that he would have surgery, sidelining him for the rest of the 2008 season. The Browns would go on to lose their last 6 games of the season and end with a dismal 4-12 record.
Soon after the season was over, Romeo Crennel was fired as Cleveland's head coach. He was replaced by former New York Jets' coach Eric Mangini, who was unsure of who would be the Browns's starting quarterback. Thus, a competition for the starting job between Quinn and Anderson occurred throughout the offseason. Since he had only started in 3 games at that point, Quinn was still considered "unproven" in the NFL, and thus many fans rooted for him to win the job. Four days before the Browns's 2009 opener, it was announced that Quinn and Anderson were informed who was the winner of the quarterback competition. Though Mangini decided not to announce the winner to the media until Sunday, a congratulatory Twitter post from Buffalo Bills' wide receiver Terrell Owens congratulated Quinn for winning the job. His tweet proved to be correct, and on the morning of the Cleveland Browns 2009 season opener, it was officially announced to the media that Quinn had won the starting quarterback positio
n. In the opening game against the Minnesota Vikings, he went 21-35 for 205 yards with one touchdown, one fumble, and one interception in a 34-20 loss. Brady continued to be the Browns' starter until Game 3 against the Baltimore Ravens, when he was benched at halftime in favor of Derek Anderson. The following week, Mangini decided to make Anderson the starter, putting Quinn back onto the bench. He did not see action again until Week 8, when he was brought in with three minutes to go in a 30-6 loss against the Chicago Bears. As the Browns headed into their bye week, it was not indicated who would be starting for the rest of the season. However, it was announced five days before their Week 10, Monday Night Football game against the Baltimore Ravens that Quinn was once again being awarded the starting quarterback position. Eric Mangini indicated that Quinn's continued hard work, determination, and growth, even while sitting on the bench, were major factors in his decision to give Brady the position back.
