Browns Fire Stefanski, Hire Monken

Published 4 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

The Cleveland Browns parted ways with head coach Kevin Stefanski after six seasons, following a disappointing 5-12 record in 2025. Stefanski, the 18th full-time coach in team history, was replaced by Todd Monken. Former wide receiver Jarvis Landry revealed growing tensions between Stefanski and the locker room, particularly with young quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Stefanskis decision to bench Sanders in a close game against the Rams in 2025 led to a backup quarterbacks game-winning drive, causing discontent among players. Landry noted Stefanskis early success fading over time, with the coach earning Coach of the Year honors in 2020 and 2023 but leading the Browns to a 3-14 record in 2024. Sanders, a fifth-round pick, struggled with a shaky offense despite a solid defense. The Browns aim to rebuild trust and spark in the locker room under Monkens leadership.
