Browns announce 8 changes to their coaching staff

The Browns announce 8 changes to their staff.

The Cleveland Browns are getting set for the NFL Scouting Combine, and they have finalized eight changes to their staff before hitting the road for Indianapolis, Indiana. The hire of Bill Musgrave as a Senior Offensive Assistant has been the headlining hire over the past couple of days, but there is also still a vacancy at passing game coordinator on the defensive side of the ball.

Outside of the hiring of Musgrave, here are seven other moves the Browns have finalized as we get set for the start of the new league year, the combine, and for some new faces to join the roster in free agency.

Browns hire Kevin Rogers as senior offensive assistant coach

Rogers was Stefanski’s boss in Minnesota during the Vikings’ Brett Favre era

Kevin Stefanski’s coaching staff just got a little more robust and experienced. The Browns have hired Kevin Rogers to join Stefanski’s crew as a senior offensive assistant coach.

Rogers and Stefanski worked together in Minnesota for several years. In fact, Stefanski served part of his career with the Vikings as the assistant QB coach under Rogers, who was the team’s QB coach from 2006-2010.

“It’s great to add someone with Kevin’s expertise to the staff,” Stefanski said via a media release from the Browns. “He has seen so many offenses on every level of football and the knowledge he brings will be invaluable at every position.”

Rogers will work with the full offense in Cleveland under Stefanski and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt. He is not the official QB coach even though that role remains vacant, but expect Rogers to work closely with Baker Mayfield. The 68-year-old Rogers has worked with Donovan McNabb and Brett Favre among the many QBs under his tutelage in over 45 years of coaching.

He last coached at William & Mary, his alma mater, serving as the Tribe’s offensive coordinator and QB coach before he resigned after the 2017 season.
