Reports: Browns to hire Vikings offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski

The Cleveland Browns have finally made their decision. The team ended its coaching search Sunday, reportedly hiring Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski to be the Browns’ next head coach, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Stefanski, 37, was a runner-up for the Browns job last year. Stefanski reportedly had the support of Browns chief strategy officer Paul DePodesta at the time, but former general manager John Dorsey hired Freddie Kitchens instead. The Browns went 6-10 in 2019, and Kitchens was fired after just one season.

Stefanski comes to the Browns after a successful season as the Vikings’ offensive coordinator.
