Hue Jackson: Antonio Callaway Played Most of Browns Preseason Opener as Punishment

Browns rookie receiver Antonio Callaway was recently cited for marijuana possession and driving with a suspended license. After failing to notify the Browns of his citations until news broke days later, Cleveland coach Hue Jackson decided that discipline would come in the form of playing time—and a lot of it.

Callaway played almost all of the Browns preseason opener against the Giants on Thursday, which Jackson said was punishment for Callaway's actions.

“That was part of the consequence of what he has been through, and he knows it. That is what it was," Jackson explained to reporters on Sunday.
