Browns' Stefanski reclaims playcalling in 2025
Briefly

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski will regain play-calling responsibilities after having handed them over mid-season in 2024. Initiating this transition, Stefanski appointed Tommy Rees as the new offensive coordinator, tasked with reforming a lackluster offensive scheme that failed to utilize quarterback Deshaun Watson effectively before his injury. Watson, reconstructing from an Achilles injury for the second consecutive year, will miss a substantial amount of the upcoming season, forcing the Browns to reassess their offensive strategy through potential free agents and draft picks, including the No. 2 overall pick.
