The Browns’ quarterback competition is through its first phase, and the reviews, meaningless as they may be, are in. At least in the eyes of Browns reporter Zac Jackson, there is a clear frontrunner, as well as some intrigue. While Joe Flacco is the favorite to start, the rookies are surging.
As for Kenny Pickett, Jackson had little to say about him in the Browns’ quarterback competition. Outside of writing that he is typically first in warmup lines and a lot of drills, he only added, “Pickett has been unremarkable”. Unremarkable, though, doesn’t mean bad, especially not in OTAs and minicamp.
