As Delhomme Visits, Holmgren Downplays Quinn Rumors

Browns president Mike Holmgren said Thursday that quarterback Brady Quinn has not played enough to clearly determine his future, and added that reports the team was "shopping" Quinn were overstated.

"You can say that about any of our players -- at this time of year," Holmgren said. "We talk to a lot of people.

"I have a system I believe in in developing quarterbacks, an approach that I think works," he added. "[Quinn has] only played 12 games. That's not enough time."

Holmgren said his intent is to strengthen the entire quarterback position and have one player emerge as the starter. His first step was acquiring Seneca Wallace from Seattle via trade, the second releasing Derek Anderson. Quinn should be part of the 2010 group -- though a dramatic trade or free agent signing could always change the situation. He did acknowledge that sometimes it helps a player to get a fresh start.

Update: Delhomme Agrees to 2-Year-Deal With Browns

One player looking for new NFL life is ex-Panthers QB Jake Delhomme -- he visited Cleveland Thursday, but did not sign a contract.

Delhomme will visit a couple other teams, with several reports saying the native Louisianan intends to visit the Saints and discuss being a backup to Drew Brees.

Browns president Mike Holmgren said he fully expected Delhomme would make other visits, and did not sound discouraged that he left the Browns without a deal.
