This Cleveland Browns season has not gone anywhere close to according to plan, or approached even the most reasonable of expectations.
Not only is Deshaun Watson out for the season, but even a Week 12 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers — in blizzard-like conditions, can mask a 3-8 start to a season that began with legitimate playoff aspirations but now appears earmarked for a last-place finish in the AFC North.
Yet, despite being on track to miss the playoffs, it appears that it will be status quo for the Browns in 2025.
According to a report from Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, the Browns plan on bringing back both head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry.
“Just to reiterate,” Breer wrote in his Monday column. “And this was true before the game, the Browns are planning to go forward with Berry and Stefanski, barring something cataclysmic unfolding over the next six weeks.”
There had ben a belief that Stefanski may be on the hot-seat.
However, if the Browns wind up keeping their options open at quarterback this offseason, Cleveland could be in position to snag one of the top incoming rookies which would give the veteran head coach the opportunity to hit the reset button both on his tenure and the Browns’ rebuild.
