DeShone Kizer knows he has long way to go but holds himself to high standard

DeShone Kizer’s self-awareness goes hand in hand with his self-esteem.

The second-round rookie wrapped up his first week of OTAs with a positive attitude and optimism while maintaining some reality about his personal situation in the Browns quarterback room. In an open competition with Cody Kessler, Brock Osweiler and Kevin Hogan, Kizer realizes he has plenty to learn and experience before he can consider himself a serious contender.

It’s a delicate balance for the former Notre Dame signal-caller but he came away confident after a positive first week of working with the full team.
