CLEVELAND -- By the time the fourth episode of "Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Cleveland Browns" aired on Tuesday night, fans had already gotten a long look at Baker Mayfield's impression of general manager John Dorsey.
Fortunately, however, HBO saved what might have been the best skit of the team's rookie talent show for Tuesday night.
In what was the first skit shown of the late-summer tradition, undrafted wide receiver Blake Jackson hearkened back to Jarvis Landry's infamous speech that aired in the first episode of the series. But rather than pleading with teammates to not let minor injuries prevent them from practicing -- as Landry did -- Jackson took the speech a step further.

"Pretty much, all y'all b----es, except for me," Jackson said in a voiceover of the speech. "'Cause y'all don't want to practice. That s--t is contagious, bro. That s--t is contagious."
Jackson went on to mock Landry's exaggerated use of the word "contagious" before showing clips of himself and fellow rookie Damion Ratley practicing with varying degrees of injuries. In one scene, Jackson is shown running routes with one hand wrapped in a club cast, while in another, Ratley is captured "running" routes while riding in the back of an injury cart.
For what it's worth, the skit seemed to be well received by Jackson's intended target. Unfortunately for Mayfield, the same couldn't be said when it came to his impression of Dorsey.
