Browns offensive standout No. 2: Dorian Thompson-Robinson, QB
Despite not playing a down in the first half of the Hall of Fame Game, Dorian Thompson-Robinson will be the first player that comes to mind when talking about the preseason kickoff. DTR was an absolute electric factory on Thursday night. From the second he stepped on the field the game just had a different feel to it.
DTR immediately demonstrated a tremendous feel in the pocket and an intuitive awareness of when to use his legs to evade trouble. His elusiveness provided the Browns with the spark that they lacked throughout the first half. DTR led the Cleveland offense on a 93-yard, 11-play drive, that culminated in a rushing touchdown by Demetric Felton in which Thompson-Robinson threw the springing block.
Two drives later, DTR orchestrated a 78-yard, nine play drive that ended with a 22-yard touchdown throw to Austin Watkins Jr. When it was all said and done, DTR finished the game going eight for 11 through the air for 82 yards and touchdown and added an additional 36 yards on the ground on six rushing attempts (counting his kneel down in victory formation). Not bad for one half of football.
Dorian Thompson-Robinson is going to give Browns fans something to look forward to this preseason.
