The Browns left Indianapolis, Indiana with their second preseason victory in as many weeks, 21-18 over the Colts despite most starters getting the afternoon off.

With most of the work done on the practice field, Kitchens was able to use the game at Lucas Oil Stadium to evaluate the back end of the roster.


Here's a look at who we thought helped or hurt themselves Saturday.  

Who helped themselves

QB Garrett Gilbert – The nomad quarterback of Alliance of American Football fame continues to impress and may have earned a roster spot, especially with Kitchens' preference of having three quarterbacks on the roster. Gilbert made just about every throw you expect a quarterback to make Saturday afternoon. At one point he completed eight straight passes. Overall, he completed 13 of 19 passes for 151 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

P Jamie Gillan – 'The Scottish Hammer' smashed a 74-yard punt to flip the field and pin the Colts at their own 10. Need we say any more? Gillan's second punt went for 45 yards and his third 37 for an average of 52.0 per boot and his holds on kicks appeared to be clean.

Who did not

OL Austin Corbett – It doesn't matter where they put the 33rd overall pick in the 2018 draft, Corbett's problems follow. Corbett once again was ineffective in run blocking or pass protection – against Colts second and third teamers – and he had three bad snaps and a holding penalty at center. As Corbett continues to struggle, he might be general manager John Dorsey's first big miss in the draft.
