Overview

  • Cleveland requested interviews with Baltimore offensive coordinator Todd Monken and Seattle defensive coordinator Aden Durde, the first publicly known candidates of the post-Kevin Stefanski search.
  • General manager Andrew Berry is running the process after Stefanski's firing, with more interview requests expected as the team evaluates differing coaching profiles.
  • Monken, the Browns’ offensive coordinator in 2019, has led high-performing Ravens units since 2023 after winning two national titles at Georgia and has drawn prior NFL head-coach interest.
  • Durde oversees a top-10 Seahawks defense and, if hired, would become the NFL’s first European-born head coach after a rapid rise from fellowship roles to coordinator.
  • Reporting indicates Cleveland favors an offensive-minded hire to stabilize the offense and help retain defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, as owner Jimmy Haslam labels the next 120 days crucial with free agency and a draft haul that includes two first-round picks.
