Report: Browns send QB Quinn to Broncos

Sun 14th, March 2010

McLean, VA (Sports Network) - Quarterback Brady Quinn is on the verge of a new beginning that has been rumored since the Browns apparently inked Jake Delhomme on Saturday, as Cleveland reportedly traded the former first-round pick to Denver.

According to a report in USA Today on Sunday, the Browns will receive fullback Peyton Hillis, a 2011 sixth-round draft pick and a conditional 2012 draft pick.

Quinn, 25, was deemed expendable by new team president Mike Holmgren, who seems intent on shaking up the team's roster in an attempt at a quick turnaround. A former Notre Dame star, Quinn played in 10 games -- nine starts -- for the five-win Browns in 2009, throwing for 1,339 yards with eight touchdowns and seven interceptions.

With Quinn's departure, both of Cleveland's starting quarterbacks from last season have now been deleted from the roster. Derek Anderson, who earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2007, was cut earlier in the offseason after Seneca Wallace was acquired from Seattle in a trade.

Quinn has spent his first three seasons in the NFL with the Browns, playing in 14 games. He has 1,902 career passing yards with 10 touchdowns and nine picks.

Like the Browns, the Broncos have now undergone a complete quarterback overhaul in the past year, having traded Jay Cutler to Chicago following the 2008 season in exchange for Kyle Orton.
