Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Dorian Thompson-Robinson starting for Browns Thursday
Dorian Thompson-Robinson will start against the Eagles on Thursday night.
Fantasy Impact
The 23-year-old rookie QB out of UCLA showed flashes in week one of the preseason completing 17 of 21 passes, along with 184 yards and 2 touchdowns. Thompson-Robinson has a chance of carving out a backup role behind Watson.

Anthony Richardson named Colts’ Week 1 starter
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen named quarterback Anthony Richardson as the team’s starter for their Week 1 home matchup with the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
The worry with Richardson was that it could take time for him to take over as the starting quarterback in Indianapolis, but that’s no longer a worry. The biggest struggle for a rookie quarterback is when they will be able to get on the field, and with Richardson being a Week 1 starter, he could start the whole season. With his dual threat abilities, his fantasy floor is raised to a point where he should garner serious consideration as a draft pick, even in one QB leagues. His current ADP is QB16. Veteran QB Gardner Minshew II will serve as his backup.
