The Facts:
HC Rob Chudzinski told reporters Monday that he wants to review the game tape and evaluate Weeden's recovery from a sprained thumb before naming a starter for Sunday's home game against the Cincinnati Bengals. "I'm going to wait on that until I have all of the information," Chudzinski said.

Making his first start, Brian Hoyer wasn't flawless, but he delivered the Browns their first regular-season win Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. It was the team's best performance of the year on offense, but Weeden isn't entirely out of the picture. Chudzinski said Weeden is making progress after seeing a specialist last week. The first-year coach also called it his "responsibility" to play the quarterback who gives the Browns the best chance to win. ... Meanwhile, Sunday's win caps a week of speculation that Trent Richardson wouldn't be the last player shipped away as the front office accumulates draft picks. Responding to a report that Josh Gordon is on the block, Chudzinski said there are no plans to trade the explosive pass-catcher. Asked if fellow receiver Greg Little could be dealt, Chud emphasized, "We have no plans on any trades."
