Browns

Browns HC Hue Jackson mentioned that No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield has “done some good things” up to this point, but they’re still taking things slow with him.

“He’s done some good things,” Jackson said, via Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com. “He obviously is learning the National Football League game, but he’s working at it each and every day. He goes in there and gets his reps, and he makes the most of them. As I said before, we drafted a very talented player. Glad that we have him. He works extremely hard. He’s competing hard. . . .

“As we go, there will be more that he gets. We’ve got to start him off and get him acclimated to all of this and how it all works through meetings, his teammates, the locker room, being on the field and being coached.”
