Browns

Browns HC Hue Jackson told reporters on Wednesday that QB Brock Osweiler has done a good job in offseason workouts up to this point.

“He’s done a good job,” Jackson said of Osweiler, via ESPN.com. “He works hard at it every day. He’s into it. I think he really enjoys being here.”

Jackson added that he’s already seen progress from Osweiler based on how he’s throwing the ball.

“He looks much better right now,” Jackson said. “He’s more compact. He’s throwing the ball with a lot more velocity. He’s doing a lot of good things. He needs to keep going, just like all our quarterbacks do.”
