Just one day after trading for Seneca Wallace, the Cleveland Browns have decided to release Derek Anderson, which ends his 4 year run with the team.
He stunned most of the NFL with a breakout 2007 season in which he had career highs in completion percentage (56.5%), passing yards per game (236.7), passing touchdowns (29) & passing yards (3,787).
But after that, Anderson’s career went into a tailspin as he played in just 18 games over the last 2 seasons while combining to throw for 12 touchdowns & 18 interceptions.
Derek even had a game last season where he won despite only completing 2 of 17 passes for 23 yards (15.1 rating) during Cleveland’s 6-3 win over Buffalo on October 11th, 2008.
Brady Quinn will be the Browns’ starting quarterback for the 2010-11 season, while Seneca Wallace will serve as Quinn’s backup.
