Browns vs. Jets: Week 5 start time, TV, radio info

The Cleveland Browns will take another crack at picking up their first win of the season today as they host the New York Jets. Here is how to watch or listen to the game.

The Cleveland Browns are back at it today as they resume their quest to pick up their first win of the 2017 NFL season.

Today’s opponent is a familiar one in the New York Jets, a team the Browns will face for the fourth time in the past five seasons. While this game was circled by many in the preseason as a Browns victory, the Jets come into the game at 2-2 and have beaten the Browns the past four times the teams have met.

The game is expected to be the debut of defensive end Myles Garrett, the No. 1 overall selection in the 2017 NFL Draft, who missed the first four weeks of the season with a high ankle sprain. Head coach Hue Jackson is planning to limit Garrett’s workload in his first game back, and Garrett will fight the urge to try and do too much, too soon, he told clevelandbrowns.com:

"“It is just about doing what I can, making the plays I am supposed to make and be who I am supposed to be on the field; not be out of my gap or not missing any assignments and then once I correct all of those and I have no hesitation or anything holding me back, then I can try to step forward and have a bigger role.”"
