Congratulations are in order for Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski. The first-year coach won the NFL’s coach of the year award for the 2020 season.
Stefanski was the winner in his rookie campaign after leading the Browns to an 11-5 finish in the regular season and the team’s first postseason berth since 2003. His Browns also won a playoff game for the first time in over 25 years before falling just short of the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC’s divisional round.
He is the first Browns coach to win the award since Forrest Gregg captured the honor for the 1976 season.
It’s a remarkable accomplishment for Stefanski and the Browns given the strange circumstances of playing the season in a global pandemic with no preseason and radical changes to the defensive personnel.
Good job, coach Stefanski, you earned it!
