Browns CEO Haslam: 'We'll see the real Hue Jackson' in 2018

Hue Jackson's record as the Cleveland Browns head coach is well documented. With just a single victory since taking over prior to the 2016 season, he may not inspire much confidence for most fans.

Browns CEO Jimmy Haslam, however, sees an opportunity for his coach heading into his third training camp.

"I think we'll see the real Hue Jackson,'' Haslam told reporters Saturday, via Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot. "He's got good quarterbacks, he's got some skill players, he's got a veteran offensive line - now we gotta figure out left tackle, three really good backs and good defense."

Under a new regime, beginning with general manager John Dorsey, Jackson appears to have a fresh start with Cleveland.

"Our commitment to him has been unwavering and still is,'' Haslam said. "In some ways you could say because of the talent he's had, particularly at quarterback, particularly last year, it could view it as his first year but we don't look at that.

"I know everybody's saying Hue has to win this many games or he has to win that many games. We don't look at it (like that). We're really excited about the relationship that Hue and John (Dorsey) have and not just that they have but their staffs have, how the building is working together."

The Browns made a number of offseason additions in an attempt to right the ship in 2018. These changes are particularly apparent on offense, where the team added Jarvis Landry, Carlos Hyde, and Tyrod Taylor in free agency while drafting Baker Mayfield and Nick Chubb. Haslam's club also hired Todd Haley as offensive coordinator.
