Cleveland coach Kevin Stefanski hired Rees as his offensive coordinator on Wednesday, promoting him after firing Ken Dorsey following a season in which the Browns went 3-14 and averaged a league-low 15.2 points per game.

In the interest of educating Browns fans about their new offensive coordinator, Sports 4 CLE dug up a quote from former Alabama coach Nick Saban about Rees in 2023—when the assistant helped quarterback Jalen Milroe finish sixth in the Heisman voting.

On Tuesday, Kevin Stefanski hired Browns tight ends coach Tommy Rees, 32 — the former Crimson Tide offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach — to replace the fired Ken Dorsey. He becomes Stefanski’s third offensive coordinator in the past three seasons, including Alex Van Pelt, who was fired after the 2023 season.
