Two years removed from his last coordinating job, former Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz is set to be named the Cleveland Browns defensive coordinator, according to multiple reports.
Schwartz, who coached the Lions from 2009 through 2013, returns to Cleveland, where he got his start in the NFL as a personnel scout for the former incarnation of the franchise, prior to its relocation to Baltimore.
Schwartz, 56, has an extensive track record as a defensive coordinator. Prior to coming to Detroit, he was the Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator for eight seasons. And after being fired by the Lions in 2013, he worked in the role for both Buffalo (2014) and Philadelphia (2016-20), where he won a Super Bowl ring in 2018.
