The Cleveland Browns are in search of a new head coach after the firing of Kevin Stefanski after six seasons at the helm.
This is going to be fast-paced, and expect the Browns to cast a wide net. That means there will be a lot of information coming in, perhaps too much to keep up with. That's why we are here at Browns Wire. We will keep this tracker up to date and active for as long as Cleveland's search for a new head coach continues.
Stay tuned here as this live tracker will keep you up to date on all the action as the Browns search for a new man in charge:
After three seasons as the offensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens, Todd Monken is out on his feet again, given the firing of John Harbaugh. The Browns have requested to interview him as they search for a new head coach. Monken was the Browns' offensive coordinator during the tumultuous 2019 season that John Dorsey and Freddie Kitchens crafted.
Spending time as the defensive line coach with the Dallas Cowboys, and the last two seasons as the defensive coordinator of the Seattle Seahawks, the United Kingdom's own Aden Durde is in line to speak with Cleveland's brass.
While Dan Pitcher, the offensive coordinator of the Cincinnati Bengals, does not call plays, he has gotten an interview request from the Browns. He has some buzz among NFL insiders as he looks for a potential promotion up I-71 North from Cincinnati. Here is what ESPN's Jeremy Fowler has to say on Pitcher:
"Offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher is an under-the-radar coaching option this cycle. He could have some traction in Cleveland, for example. Cincinnati's offense remained respectable through a tough year. Some teams could try to lure him as a playcaller somewhere (Zac Taylor still calls plays in Cincinnati), but Pitcher should have a chance at a head job. He's believed to have the right demeanor and leadership qualities for such a position, but the Bengals aren't exactly a hot team."
Under contract through 2026, the Browns are interviewing defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz for their head coaching vacancy. Schwartz is seen as a legitimate candidate given the success of the defense over the last three seasons and the talent on the defensive coaching staff.
Interviewing both of their coordinators, Rees will also get a crack at the head coaching gig in Cleveland. He's currently under contract and could even be brought back as the offensive coordinator, depending on who the head coach turns out to be.
