Browns Hiring Joe Woods As Defensive Coordinator
5 years agoThe Cleveland Browns will be hiring San Francisco 49ers defensive backs coach and passing game coordinator Joe Woods as their next defensive coordinator on Monday, according to a league source. Woods and new Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski worked together with the Vikings. Pass rusher Myles Garrett is expected to be reinstated from his indefinite suspension eventually, and he'll be Cleveland's best overall defender for them to build around. They'll need to be better in 2020 if they hope to make the playoffs after allowing 361.6 yards per game. Their secondary was solid, but they allowed the third-most rushing yards per game with 144.7.
