Kevin Stefanski Resumes Play-Calling for Browns' Offense

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski announced he will resume play-calling duties for the 2025 season during a press conference introducing new offensive coordinator Tommy Rees. Stefanski, who had previously given up play-calling to Ken Dorsey after a poor 1-6 start, emphasized his right to change his mind regarding play-calling. Rees, formerly the tight ends coach for the Browns and with experience as an offensive coordinator at Alabama and Notre Dame, replaces Dorsey, who was fired after the team finished last in the NFL with an average of only 15.2 points per game. The Browns are also grappling with quarterback uncertainty as Deshaun Watson recovers from a second Achilles injury, alongside holding the No. 2 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, indicating potential changes at the quarterback position. Stefanski's return to play-calling reflects a desire to improve the team's offensive performance following a dismal 3-14 season. Rees' promotion is seen as a key component in revitalizing the Browns' offensive strategy.
