Hue Jackson has funny advice for DeShone Kizer ahead of Week 1
Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson is giving DeShone Kizer the pep talk of his life prior to his first career NFL start … kind of.
On Thursday, Jackson shared the funny advice he gave his rookie starting quarterback ahead of the Browns’ season-opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, per Daryl Ruiter of 92.3 The Fan.
Hue Jackson's advice for rookie QB DeShone Kizer: "Complete the damn ball" #Browns

Kizer, 21, completed 60.7 percent of his passes in his two years playing for Notre Dame, but the NFL will be a whole new animal. Even Jackson himself has admitted Kizer will need some time to adapt. Still, the talented second-rounder has shown marked improvement since the draft, so perhaps heeding Jackson’s advice and focusing on the basics could do him a world of good.
