UPDATED - Jan. 9th 12:23 pm ET: Browns Have Hired Freddie Kitchens To Be Their Next Head Coach
The Hue Jackson era in Cleveland was a disaster and it’s time for the Browns to start looking for a new head coach in 2019. The Browns fired Jackson after a 2-5-1 start to this season. Since taking over as the Browns head coach in 2016, Jackson had a record of 3-36-1, including an 0-16 season in 2017. Since the firing, the Browns are 5-3 under interim head coach Gregg Williams. So who are some of the top candidates for the Browns in their head coaching search?
