Overview

  • Kevin Stefanski said Monday he is handing in-game play-calls to Tommy Rees beginning Sunday at the Jets, while remaining involved in gameplanning and support.
  • Cleveland averages 263.5 yards and 15.8 points per game, placing the unit near the bottom of the NFL in both categories.
  • Rees, 33, makes his NFL play-calling debut after coordinator stints at Notre Dame and Alabama and a 2024 role in Cleveland before his offseason promotion.
  • Rookie Dillon Gabriel stays the starting quarterback, and fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders missed practice with a back issue.
  • This is Stefanski’s second straight midseason handoff after turning plays over to Ken Dorsey last year, a 3-14 season that ended with Dorsey’s firing.
