NFL Notes: Browns, Dolphins, Redskins, Vikings

Browns

Browns HC Hue Jackson says he has not written off QB Robert Griffin III and he is still evaluating all his options.

“Everything’s premature right now,” Jackson said, via Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. “You guys haven’t heard that from me. So I wouldn’t read into any of that. My job is to continue to evaluate and look just like I told you guys I would. I haven’t come to any conclusions. Everybody else can jump to those conclusions but we’re going to keep looking at this thing.
