The Browns have not had any success with Weeden starting at quarterback this season, sporting an 0-4 record. With Brian Hoyer starting, Cleveland was 3-0 before Hoyer tore his ACL against the Buffalo Bills on Thursday Night Football three weeks ago.
Campbell is in his first season with the Browns, previously having played for the Washington Redskins, Oakland Raiders and Chicago Bears. The former 2005 first round pick out of Auburn has never been able to make his mark as an elite starter, but he is going to get another chance under Chudzinski.
Last season with Chicago, Campbell appeared in six games and threw for 265 yards with two touchdowns and a pair of interceptions. The last time Campbell was a starter for a real length of time was 2010 for Oakland when he completed 59 percent of his passes for 2,387 yards in 13 games.
