"Less than six months ago, he and his wife and co-owner, Dee, spoke to local reporters at the onset of training camp, and Jimmy said he remained "very supportive" of both Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry."
"On the heels of a 5-12 finish in the 2025 season -- and a combined 8-26 record the past two years -- the Haslams determined a new voice and fresh leadership at head coach was needed."
""I don't think there was one breaking point," Jimmy Haslam said. "I think you got to look at the body of work and sometimes it's just time for a change. And we felt like it was time for a change.""
The Cleveland Browns dismissed head coach Kevin Stefanski following a 5-12 record in 2025 and a combined 8-26 mark over two seasons. Team owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam announced the decision and retained general manager Andrew Berry. Stefanski earned NFL Coach of the Year twice and led the franchise to two playoff appearances in six seasons. The ownership cited the cumulative body of work and the need for a new voice and fresh leadership. The organization identified roster foundation work and finding a franchise quarterback as priorities moving forward, with another poor season deemed unacceptable.
