The Cleveland Browns are set to open their season against the Cincinnati Bengals this afternoon at Cleveland Browns Stadium. As a ritual, fans are known to tailgate for hours before the game in the historical Muni Lot adjacent to the stadium. Today, however, there was a familiar and famous (or infamous) face among the sea of fans as former Browns’ defensive coordinator Gregg Williams joined the party.
Williams, of course, is most known in Cleveland for his time as the interim head coach after the firing of both head coach Hue Jackson and offensive coordinator Todd Haley in 2018. The Browns finished the season 5-3 that year after a 2-5-1 start to the season that year. The Browns are hoping for better fortune this season after back-to-back losing seasons after making the playoffs in 2020.
Take a look at the photos captured by fans with the former interim head coach and defensive coordinator as he returns to Cleveland.
