The Cleveland Browns hired a new defensive line coach on Saturday, but Ben Bloom may not be out of a job.
Defensive coordinator did not hand-pick his defensive line coach when he got hired last offseason. Instead, the Browns reassigned Bloom to the role. After the year ended, Schwartz then met with Ryan Crow, who he worked with in Tennessee for the role of defensive line coach.
This raised a few red flags as Bloom is still with the team. The Browns have hired a new defensive line coach in Jacques Cesaire from the Houston Texans, but this does not necessarily spell the end of Bloom’s time in Cleveland.
Cleveland dot com’s Mary Kay Cabot and ESPN’s Jake Trotter have reported that Bloom is well-liked in the building and has the chance to stay on staff in 2024.
Bloom has experience as the run game coordinator with the Browns. He could return to this role after one year as the defensive line coach. Only time will tell, but the offensive side of the ball was not the only shakeups to take place in Cleveland.
