Ever since the Cleveland Browns promoted Freddie Kitchens from the team’s running backs coach to the offensive coordinator, there has been a noticeable difference in the offense’s performance.
In the five games Kitchens has been the offensive coordinator, the Browns offense has averaged 386.6 total yards and 24.6 points. In the eight games with Todd Haley as the offensive coordinator, the Browns averaged 342.4 total yards and 21.1 points per game.
The overall performance of the offense has made Kitchens a valuable commodity for the Browns. He has done such a good job in the position, that The Athletic’s Dane Brugler believes that he should play a key role in the Browns search for their next head coach.
