CLEVELAND, Ohio – It’s understandable if Browns fans have reservations about Kevin Stefanski wanting to call offensive plays as head coach in 2020. The Hue Jackson and Freddie Kitchens experiences are not forgotten.

At this point we don’t know if Stefanski will take on the play-calling role, which he held as Vikings offensive coordinator this season.

“I think we are going to work through that,” Stefanski said during his introductory press conference on Tuesday. “I think as we put the staff together, if there is someone that is on staff that I feel gives us the best chance to win - that person will call the plays. It does not have to be me. But I think I want to work through that and see as we put the staff together."

If Stefanski does decide to call plays, he certainly won’t be alone among his NFL peers. Sixteen head coaches this season called plays on offense, including four rookies: Kitchens, Zac Taylor (Bengals), Matt LaFleur (Packers) and Kliff Kingsbury (Cardinals).

That was slightly up from 2018 when 14 of the 32 head coaches were calling plays.
