CLEVELAND -- The Browns are shuffling quarterbacks. What else is new?With their quarterback room looking like a medical supply store, the team released veteran quarterback Charlie Whitehurst on Tuesday and promoted rookie QB Kevin Hogan from the practice squad to the active roster.Whitehurst injured his left knee in the final minutes of Sundays 33-13 loss to New England. The longtime backup known as Clipboard Jesus reached an injury settlement with the team before he was let go.Whitehurst was signed earlier this season after starters Robert Griffin III and Josh McCown were injured in the seasons first two weeks.The Browns were desperate to find an experienced backup for rookie Cody Kessler, a third-round pick who was supposed to spend the season on the sideline learning but was rushed into action because of the injuries.Kessler sustained an injury to his ribs and chest late in the first quarter Sunday and was replaced by Whitehurst, who completed 14 of 24 passes for 182 yards and threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Connor Hamlett.Whitehurst, though, hyperextended his knee in the fourth quarter and limped through the Browns locker room on Monday with an elastic wrap on his knee. He did not speak with reporters.The Browns are hopeful Kessler will practice Wednesday and McCown will return for the first time in a month and could play Sunday when Cleveland visits Tennessee.Browns coach Hue Jackson will wait to see which of his QBs is healthier before deciding whether to give Kessler his fourth start or go back to the 37-year-old McCown, who has displayed toughness in two injury-filled seasons with Cleveland.Cleveland has started three QBs already this season, and including wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, have had five take snaps.Cleveland has started 26 quarterbacks since 1999.Jacksons first season with the Browns, who have lost seven in a row and 14 of 15 since last season, has been made more challenging by the injuries to his quarterbacks. However, he doesnt plan to alter his game plans to protect them.Sometimes, things happen, he said. Each one of these injuries has been a little different. It is football and these things are going to happen to players.We just have had our share of bad luck, in my opinion. It is unfortunate, but we will get this turned around to where we will have maybe too many quarterbacks standing at some point.Trust me, we dont ever go into a game thinking we are going to get our quarterback hit or on this particular play. He can get hit.Sometimes, defenses guess right and they do things and they make adjustments and sometimes guys have to kind of protect themselves a little bit. Those things will happen from time to time. We have been unfortunate this year. It has happened more than once, twice, two, three, four times so we have to live with that, too, and we have.Hogan was drafted in the fifth round by Kansas City and played in the exhibition season before the Chiefs waived him on Sept. 3. He was signed the next day by the Browns, who have ties with him as assistant coach Pep Hamilton was Hogans quarterbacks coach for two years at Stanford.The 6-foot-3 Hogan passed for 9,385 yards and 75 TDs during his college career.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFLAdidas NMD R2 Dam .

After Gasquet beat fifth-seeded Ivan Dodig of Croatia 7-5, 6-3, Tsonga followed up with a 6-7 (3), 6-2, 6-2 win against sixth-seeded Edouard Roger-Vasselin in an all-French match.New Philadelphia 76ers President Bryan Colangelos biggest priority heading into free agency was to find a veteran point guard to help organize a team full of youngsters.He is turning to a familiar face to help get the job done.The 76ers agreed to terms with veteran guard Jerryd Bayless on a three-year deal worth $27 million, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Friday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal cannot be signed until July 7.The 27-year-old Bayless was a valuable backup for the Milwaukee Bucks for the last two seasons. He averaged 10.4 points and 3.1 assists last season. His deal with the Sixers is fully guaranteed.Bayless played for the Raptors when Colangelo, who was hired in the offseason to help expedite Philadelphias exhaustive rebuilding process under former GM Sam Hinkie, was leading the front office in Toronto during the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons.Bayless has also played for Portland, New Orleans, Memphis and Boston in his eight-year career, but really started to blossom under coachh Jason Kidd in Milwaukee the previous two seasons.ddddddddddddHe shot 43 percent from 3-point range last year and was an integral part of the Bucks second unit. At 6-foot-3 he can play both guard spots, defend multiple positions and run the offense.In Philadelphia, hell join a team that is switching gears from the tank mode it operated in under Hinkie. But the oft-criticized GM did amass some quality assets, including Nerlens Noel, Jahlil Okafor and the No. 1 pick last month, which was used on LSU star Ben Simmons.The Sixers tried feverishly to acquire another top-five draft pick on draft night in hopes of landing Providence point guard Kris Dunn. But they couldnt swing a deal, and Dunn landed in Minnesota, leaving Philly without a real option at point guard.Ish Smith, who arrived in midseason and played the bulk of the minutes at the spot, left to sign with Detroit. So Colangelo went for Bayless to bring a steadying presence. ' ' '
