Coach Hue Jackson said Wednesday that the quarterback has been an unexpected surprise for the Browns, and has defied expectations.

It’s pretty clear that Cleveland had low expectations for Osweiler to begin with. It’s also easy to read this as a commentary on rumors of his off-field behavior, as his time in Houston was plagued by stories of clashes with coaches. He actually has a chance to win the starting job now, and it appears he’s doing the right things to make that happen.
