Vernon Hargreaves has RGIII's number during joint practice vs Browns

Vernon Hargreaves III doesn't sound like he's playing like a rookie.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been hosting the Cleveland Browns all week for joint practices, as they will end the week with a preseason game from Raymond James Stadium on Friday evening. During practice on Tuesday, Bucs rookie cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III appeared to have Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III's number during a 7-on-7 drill.

According to the Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot, Hargreaves managed to pick RGIII off twice during the period at practice on Tuesday.

Hargreaves reportedly just started taking first-team reps at cornerback this week. Previously it was thought that Hargreaves' spot to start would be at nickel, but in the recent practices he's earned his spot with the one's at cornerback, where he played all three seasons at Florida.

Friday night's game between the Bucs and Browns will kick off at 8:00 p.m.
