Jimmy Haslam: Winning 8 games in 2 years is horrible, unacceptable, will not continue

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam announced the firing of head coach Kevin Stefanski, citing insufficient results as the reason. The decision follows the Browns' 5-12 record this season and a 3-14 finish last season. Haslam emphasized that ownership takes full responsibility for the team's performance but stated that the results were "totally unacceptable" and vowed to improve the team's future performance.

Despite the team's struggles, General Manager Andrew Berry retains his position. Haslam defended Berry's job security by highlighting his contributions, including a successful draft in 2025 and key acquisitions such as defensive tackle Maliek Collins and kicker Andre Szmyt.

Stefanski, who won the NFL's Coach of the Year award twice during his six-year tenure in Cleveland, was dismissed after failing to meet expectations. Haslam expressed the need for a new coach who can transform the team into consistent contenders.
