The Browns are promoting from within, elevating tight ends coach and pass game specialist Tommy Rees to offensive coordinator.
CLEVELAND, Ohio - The 32-year-old, now the youngest offensive coordinator in the NFL , played quarterback at Notre Dame before beginning his coaching career in 2015.
Rees has been with the Browns since 2024, prior to that he was at Alabama as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach where he helped the Crimson Tide win the SEC Championship Game and advance to the College Football Playoffs. The promotion to OC is a full-circle moment for Rees, who was a ball boy for the Browns as a teenager when his dad, Bill, was the Director of Player Personnel under General Manager Phil Savage.
While the Browns future at quarterback is uncertain, the move to promote Rees likely signals that Kevin Stefanski will take back over calling plays next season.A former Notre Dame star QB, Rees becomes one of the NFL’s youngest coordinators at age 32. He previously had stints at ND and Alabama as OC/QB coach before joining Kevin Stefanski’s staff last year.
