The Cleveland Browns will have a coach participating in the Spring League as part of the NFL Coach Accelerator Program. Assistant wide receivers coach Callie Brownson will represent the Browns. What is the purpose of this program? Here is what the NFL says:
“The Coach Accelerator aims to increase exposure between owners, executives, and diverse coaching talent, providing ample opportunity to develop and build upon their relationships. In a change to the nomination process this year, clubs were able to nominate those from outside of their organization…
In addition to networking, further development of the participants is a critical component of the accelerator, with curated content sessions scheduled that will further engage each participant on the advancement of their executive leadership skills and business acumen.”
Brownson has been with the Browns since the 2020 season and has also been the head coach of the gold medal-winning Team USA women’s football team. Brownson has climbed the latter with the Browns, starting as the chief of staff to head coach Kevin Stefanski.
