Tyler Huntley will be sticking around a little while longer in Cleveland.

The former University of Utah quarterback was retained by the Browns on the team’s initial 53-man active roster, as was fellow backup quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson.

Both found themselves battling for a spot behind Cleveland starter Deshaun Watson and QB2 Jameis Winston.

Cleveland kept four quarterbacks on their initial active roster.

Huntley and Thompson-Robinson battled for QB3 status throughout training camp and the preseason.
