Browns special teams coordinator Chris Tabor talks major rule change, loss of Travis Benjamin

Browns special teams coordinator Chris Tabor has been dealt an interesting deck of cards over the past few years and, most recently, last week.

The NFL last week announced it will move touchbacks to the 25-yard line, the league’s second special teams wrinkle in as many years after it moved the extra point out to the 15-yard line before the start of last season.

Tabor on Tuesday said he understands the rule changes in a wide-ranging interview on Cleveland Browns Daily.

“The safety of the players should always be first and foremost, there’s no doubt about that, and I think while you’re looking at those things, you’re also looking at the integrity of the game and still wanting to make it exciting, and I think the league is doing a good job,” he said.
