Ex-Browns QB Brady Quinn had a successful college career that nearly ended with a Heisman Trophy at Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish quarterback has since ended up in the broadcast booth, where he dispenses ‘hot takes' that sometimes draw the ire of fans, players and coaches alike.

Quinn played three years for the Cleveland Browns in the NFL and one season with the Kansas City Chiefs. His career best yardage total occurred in 2009, when he tallied 1,339 yards for Ohio's northeast team.

A timetable for Watson's injury situation was revealed recently. Likewise, an injury update on Jerome Ford was also revealed.

Recently, Watson's QB coach Quincy Avery took issue with someone few expected he ever would: Quinn, for his provocative comments on Watson's current contract situation and recent play.

A former top 15 overall pick, Watson has a completion percentage of 61.7% on the season and has thrown for 683 yards. He has four passing touchdowns on the season against three interceptions. While Watson's stats haven't been mind-boggling by any extent, the ex-Fighting Irish quarterback has helped lead his team to a 4-2 record.

In a jam-packed AFC North, the Browns' hot start is good for a second-place tie with hated in-state rival Pittsburgh. The question now is whether Avery's roast of Quinn will help to motivated Watson and the Browns, and if so, whether or not it will matter.

Most analysts would argue the Browns are the least talented of the top three in their division, which may explain why there is so much attention on Watson.

If the former Clemson Tigers signal caller can play like his old self from Columbia, South Carolina under Coach Dabo Swinney in the shadow of Howard's Rock, he may have what it takes to will his team to a playoff spot — and perhaps even a Browns division title at some point.
