The Cleveland Browns have signed coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry to contract extensions, the team announced Wednesday.
Terms were not disclosed.
“We are incredibly fortunate to have Kevin Stefanski and Andrew Berry leading the Cleveland Browns,” Browns owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam said in a statement. “Since the day they were hired, each has worked tirelessly to help the Cleveland Browns win. We are proud of what they and the team have achieved, but Kevin and Andrew would be the first to say that Browns fans deserve even more. Their leadership, collaborative approach, and ability to overcome obstacles bode well for the future of this franchise.
“Last season was a prime example. Despite facing multiple player injuries and using five different starting quarterbacks, Andrew and his staff built a roster that adapted well, while Kevin and his staff led the team to its second playoff appearance in four years, earning Coach of the Year honors for the second time in that period. They are two of the brightest people we know, and selfless people who only care about what is best for the Cleveland Browns. We are thrilled that Kevin and Andrew will remain with the team for the future.”
The Browns are 37-30 since Stefanski and Berry were hired by the team in 2020. That .552 winning percentage is the highest over a four-year stretch since 1986-89. The Browns also have made two playoff appearances under Stefanski and Berry and the team won a playoff game after the 2020 season, its first postseason victory in 26 years.
Stefanski was named the NFL’s Coach of the Year in both 2020 and 2023.
