Browns-Jets Hall of Fame Game: How to watch preseason opener

Why it matters: It's one of the big events during a loaded Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Week that culminates with the induction of Browns legend Joe Thomas on Saturday.

State of play: The game itself won't feature much star power. Starters for both teams — including quarterbacks Deshaun Watson and Aaron Rodgers — will sit out.

Yes, but: There are still players to watch. Wide receivers Cedric Tillman and Daylen Baldwin and running backs Demetric Felton and John Kelly will be looking to solidify their spots.

• Browns backup quarterbacks Kellen Mond and rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson are competing for the third-string spot on the roster.

What they're saying: "I'm ready to just go out there and get an opportunity to play," Thompson-Robinson said during practice Tuesday.

What we're watching: The Hall of Fame Class of 2023 will be acknowledged during the broadcast.

• Expect a huge roar for Thomas from a Cleveland-heavy crowd.

If you go: The game is sold out, but a limited number of tickets for the game are available on secondary markets.

• It will air live at 8pm on NBC.
