How DeShone Kizer is still benefiting from Josh McCown's wisdom

CLEVELAND, Ohio - DeShone Kizer surely would've benefited from having Jets quarterback Josh McCown around to mentor him this season, but he's got the next best thing.

Two of McCown's mentees are still on the Browns roster in backup quarterbacks Kevin Hogan and Cody Kessler, and they're passing down McCown's many pearls of wisdom to the rookie QB.

"We're still echoing some of the stuff Josh said to us to DeShone, so he's still in our ears in a sense,'' Hogan told cleveland.com Friday as the 0-4 Browns prepared to take on the 2-2 Jets Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium.
