Former Browns coach Kevin Stefanski traded his AFC North membership card for a spot in the NFC South when he was fired from his longtime post in Cleveland back in January. Although he won two Coach of the Year awards during his time in Ohio, the Browns finished their 2025 campaign with a record of 5–12.
In his final year at the helm, Stefanski notably worked with soon-to-be second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders, whose unprecedented slide in the 2025 draft made him the object of much public fascination in his first year in the NFL. Sanders, only 24, handled the outsized pressure quite well, even amid unfounded allegations of some sort of rift or bad blood between himself and Stefanski.
