AFC North News: Browns Shakeup Coaching Staff After Playoff Loss to Texans

Cleveland and Cincinnati split their two meetings this season. The Browns lost to the Texans 45-14 in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.

CINCINNATI — The Browns might've made the playoffs for the first time since 2020, but that isn't stopping them from making changes to Kevin Stefanski's coaching staff. 

Cleveland has fired offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt, running backs coach Stump Mitchell and tight ends coach T.C. McCartney according to Josina Anderson. 

"Some of the players are upset from the news," Anderson tweeted. 

The Browns might not be the only AFC North team that makes changes to their coaching staff.

Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan and Ravens defensive coordinator Mike MacDonald are both interviewing for head coaching jobs and could realistically land one in this cycle. 

It's worth noting that Van Pelt was the Bengals' quarterbacks coach for two seasons, including 2019, which was Zac Taylor's first year in Cincinnati.
