Jon Embree: 'Jordan Cameron's hard work has paid off'

Cleveland Browns tight ends coach Jon Embree believes that Jordan Cameron's off-season work has paid off in 2013.

Cleveland Browns tight ends coach Jon Embree has said that Jordan Cameron's off-season work has paid off.

The 25-year-old spent the summer working on his game with Atlanta Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez, helping him amass 600 receiving yards and six touchdowns from the first nine games of the 2013 season.

Embree told the team's official website: "Jordan is a guy that can run real well and does a good job of using his body, and he catches with his hands. I think that plays a part in it. The quarterback's looking for him and getting the ball near him.

"Anytime the quarterback has receivers, tight ends that they know will go up and get the ball, will catch the ball in traffic, they're a little more comfortable throwing the ball in that direction. It was good for him to get that start so he could see the hard work that he's put in is paying off for him.

"Jordan's taken a lot of those things that Tony shared with him and did with him, and has incorporated it into how he practices and some of the things he does on game day. Tony called me [recently], and we talked for a while. He called to talk about Jordan. He's been following Jordan and keeping an eye on him. I think that's helped boost Jordan's confidence also."

The Browns face the Cincinnati Bengals later today.
