Senior Bowl: TV info, rosters and rules for today's game
The Cleveland Browns and the rest of the NFL will be watching closely at today’s Senior Bowl. Here is everything you need to know about the annual game.
Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson will get a first look at his rebuilt coaching staff this afternoon during the 2017 Senior Bowl.
The coaches have been working with members of the South roster all week during practice and receiving praise from several of the players.
“He’s always pushing his players and if you do something good he’s the first one to congratulate you,” Mississippi State wide receiver Fred Ross told The Plain Dealer, “and hearing the head coach tell you, ‘Great catch. Good job, man,’ it’s huge. It gives you a big confidence boost.
“He’s like one of the players out here and, as a player, you’re playing for a coach like that, you can go out there and play free because he’s going to be the first one to congratulate you and he’s going to be there to motivate you every step of the way.”
