Things are about to get interesting. #Browns are set to make a big push to hire Hue Jackson, source said. They'd like to close it out.

Jackson reportedly had plans to eventually interview with the Giants as recently as Monday, but he’s been most heavily linked to San Francisco. It could be a case of the Browns pushing hard to beat San Francisco to the punch, diminished interest from the 49ers, or simply someone involved in the process pitting two potential destinations against each other to force some movement. Only time will tell.
