T.C. McCartney officially hired as Browns offensive assistant coach, not QB coach

McCartney worked for the Browns in 2014 and spent 2019 in Denver as the QB coach

The offensive coaching staff for the new-look Cleveland Browns got one step closer to completion with the late-week hiring of T.C. McCartney. The newest staffer joins Kevin Stefanski’s staff as an offensive assistant coach.

McCartney comes to the Browns from Denver. He spent one season under rookie head coach Vic Fangio as the Broncos quarterbacks coach, where he worked with rookie Drew Lock and veteran Joe Flacco. Prior to that, he served as an offensive assistant and quality control coach in San Francisco under Kyle Shanahan.

He’s a former college quarterback at LSU and has worked extensively with the position since entering the NFL coaching ranks with the Browns back in 2014, but McCartney is not the Browns’ QB coach. That position remains vacant for now.
