US EditionCleveland Browns hire Todd Monken as new head coach, reports say
- On January 28, 2026 the Cleveland Browns hired Todd Monken as their head coach in Berea, Ohio, replacing Kevin Stefanski after his Jan. 5 dismissal.
- The Browns' interview process included virtual and in-person meetings this month, as general manager Andrew Berry launched a 10-candidate search and interviewed Monken multiple times.
- A successful run at Georgia and in Baltimore bolsters Monken's résumé, as he led the Baltimore Ravens' 2024 offense to top NFL rankings and won two national titles with the Georgia Bulldogs.
- Monken will begin assembling his coaching staff immediately, seeking to retain Jim Schwartz as defensive coordinator while Andrew Berry said he will influence the 2026 quarterback decision.
- Monken faces a low-scoring offense that needs a rebuild, inheriting a unit that ranked last and second-last in points while the Cleveland Browns front office must upgrade personnel ahead of the 2026 campaign.
