Cody Kessler will remain Browns' starter moving forward

Cleveland Browns quarterback Cody Kessler is "our starter," head coach Hue Jackson stated on Monday.

What It Means:

This indicates that Josh McCown (collarbone) won't be handed back the starting gig once he returns to full health. Kessler remains winless, but has exceeded expectations under center, and Jackson understandably wants to develop his third-round pick.

Kessler completed 26-of-41 passes for 336 yards and 2 touchdowns in Week 6, earning 16.19 Net Expected Points, per numberFire Live.
