Browns hire former QB Ken Dorsey as new offensive coordinator

The Browns have landed on a new offensive coordinator, and it’s one of the names on their infamous quarterback jersey

The Cleveland Browns have landed a new offensive coordinator as they land on Ken Dorsey to replace Alex Van Pelt.

After interviewing five candidates, the Browns have landed on Dorsey (according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport), who has most recently spent time with the Buffalo Bills as their offensive coordinator.

Dorsey will be remembered by some for the three games he started for the team in 2008. In that span, Dorsey finished with a record of 0-3 with 370 yards passing with no touchdowns and seven interceptions.

As a play-caller in Buffalo, however, Dorsey saw much greater success. During his ten weeks as the offensive coordinator in Buffalo, before he was scapegoated, the Bills were the third-best team in Expected Points Added per play (EPA), first in success rate, eighth in dropback EPA, and second in rush EPA. The Bills were also scoring the second-most points in the NFL, were third in red zone touchdown percentage, and eighth in goal-to-go scenarios.

Now we wait and see what this means for head coach Kevin Stefanski and the play-calling duties on gameday.
