Browns part ways with QB Anderson

Football Betting Lines

03/09/2010 - Berea, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Browns terminated the contract of quarterback Derek Anderson on Tuesday.

The move comes less than 24 hours after the Browns traded for Seneca Wallace and seems to open the door for Brady Quinn to step in as the team's unquestioned full-time starter under center.

"I want to thank Derek for everything that he gave the Cleveland Browns organization over the last five years," said Browns head coach Eric Mangini. "He did everything we asked of him and it was a pleasure to coach such a competitive person. I want to wish him all the best in the future."

Anderson's five-year tenure with the club was a bumpy one. He was originally claimed off waivers from Baltimore in 2005 and appeared in five games the following season in place of an injured Charlie Frye.

Frye remained the starter going into the 2007 season but Anderson took over in Week 1 and led Cleveland to its first winning season in five years at 10-6. Anderson went on to start the next 15 games, completing 56.5 percent of his passes for 3,787 yards with 29 touchdowns -- one shy of Brian Sipe's club record set in 1980.

His successes landed him in the Pro Bowl for the first time and led to a lucrative contract extension at season's end.

Things went south in a hurry, though, and Anderson's subsequent struggles placed him in a back-and-forth starting role alongside Quinn over the next two seasons.

Overall, Anderson compiled a 16-18 record as a starter and has racked up 7,083 yards with 46 TD passes and 45 interceptions while connecting on 52.9 percent of his passes in 39 career games.
