New Browns coach Hue Jackson made it clear in a half dozen radio interviews the past two days his primary focus this offseason will be on finally bringing a legitimate franchise quarterback to Cleveland.
“We need a very consistent and dominant quarterback,” Jackson said Thursday on the Stephen A. Smith Show on SiriusXM Radio. “That’s what this team has to have in order for us to be successful.”
Jackson also spoke as if the Browns will move on from quarterback Johnny Manziel, the 22nd overall pick in the 2014 draft whose personal issues and off-field behavior have overshadowed the progress he showed on the field during his second NFL season.
