Among the many revelations from the report by ESPN's Seth Wickersham on the division within the ranks of the Cleveland Browns is an account of a colorful exchange between upper management and former head coach Hue Jackson.

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and general manager John Dorsey walked into Jackson's office to fire him on Oct. 29, sources told Wickersham. When Jackson asked why he was being let go, Dorsey told him the team had quit on him.

"Get the f--- out of my office," Jackson responded, according to Wickersham.

Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams replaced Jackson on an interim basis before interim offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens was promoted to the full-time job in January.
