It's official: Browns coach Hue Jackson set to jump in Lake Erie

The Browns head coach will jump into Lake Erie on June 1, fulfilling a promise he made following his first season in Cleveland.

Jackson, following a 1-15 season in 2016, vowed to take a dip in the lake if the Browns finished with that record the following year. They went winless in 2017.

The jump will be held in a private location and is reserved for club employees only. To make the event worth a good cause, Jackson will donate $100 for every Browns employee who jumps in with him toward the Hue Jackson Foundation, which combats human trafficking across Northeast Ohio.
