Landry: Browns QBs 'a lot better than what I had in Miami'
Jarvis Landry took some not-so-veiled shots at his former club while praising the Cleveland Browns quarterbacks he's now catching passes from.
The wide receiver has yet to record an official reception with the Browns, but he already rates the quarterback situation above that of the Miami Dolphins.
"It's a lot better than what I had in Miami. I'm excited about that," Landry said, according to Marc Sessler of NFL.com.
Landry has only participated in OTAs and minicamp, where he's been working with new Cleveland quarterbacks Tyrod Taylor and Baker Mayfield, the first-overall pick in this year's draft.
"The quarterback play is so important, which has got me that much more excited about Tyrod and (Mayfield) and the way that they're throwing the ball out here," Landry said.
For the first four years of his career, Landry was on the other end of passes from Ryan Tannehill, Jay Cutler, and Matt Moore. Last year, he reeled in a league-high 112 passes, the majority of which came from Cutler.
In Cleveland, Landry is already planning post-minicamp workouts with his QBs.
"I didn't do that in Miami with the quarterbacks because they didn't want to do it," he said. "I would say the chemistry and the type of guys that I'm around here makes me that much more excited because I know I'm going to be pushed at all levels at all times."
