As the 2016 season draws nearer, the Cleveland Browns have still not chosen their starting quarterback – and Josh McCown isn’t happy about it.
McCown recently voiced his concerns to 850 WKNR, claiming that he wishes he had more of a sense of direction concerning the current quarterback issue. McCown doesn’t know if he’ll be the starter, backup, or if he’ll even have a spot on this season’s roster as it stands now. But, the quarterback is embracing the spirit of competition, and believes that it is ultimately making him a better player overall.
“I’m a human being and there’s no doubt, you want things mapped out,” McCown stated. “I don’t like it, but I think it helps me get better.”
McCown is contending with Cody Kessler, Connor Shaw, Austin Davis and Robert Griffin III for the starting gig. Head Coach Hue Jackson has made no indications as to what the 2016 Browns quarterback depth chart will look like at this time.
“My role is every day to come in here and get better and help the room,” said McCown. “However that breaks, if he says ‘Josh McCown is our starting quarterback,’ or if he says Robert Griffin or Cody or Austin or Connor, however that works, I’m going to help the room any way I can. That’s my mindset.”
