Report: Chris Kiffin leaving 49ers to become Browns DL coach

He is the son of legendary NFL defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin

The Cleveland Browns are finalizing the coaching staff under new head man Kevin Stefanski. One of the last holes is at defensive line, but a report from Sirius XM NFL Radio indicates the team has filled that with Chris Kiffin.

Kiffin, 38, has been the pass rush specialist coach for the San Francisco 49ers for the last two seasons. He does have several years of experience as a DL coach at the college level, including one season as the defensive coordinator at Florida Atlantic.

He is the younger brother of former NFL head coach Lane Kiffin and the son of legendary NFL defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin, the Godfather of the Tampa-2 defense. Kiffin replaces Tosh Lupoi, now with the Atlanta Falcons.
